The document discusses making the transition from manual to automated testing. It provides an agenda that covers planning the transition, keeping automation going once started, considerations in tool selection, and a demo of eureQa and Sauce Labs. The transition involves scoping what to automate, organizing tests for reuse, ensuring traceability, and selecting tools based on team strengths and capabilities. Key aspects of keeping automation running include ease of maintenance, integrating testing into development, and managing results through reporting and analytics.

4. Before you begin - Plan
• Scope of Automation – What to automate?
• Based on frequency of testing
• Business & technical priority
• What can be automated (Tool dependent)
• Organize – With a focus on Reuse
• Common Workflow components
• Identify the granularity of reuse that works for your application
• Separate Test Data from Workflows/ business logic
• Traceability to requirements & changes (content, data etc.)
• Team and Tools
• Strengths and capabilities of your team
• Tool capabilities
• What does it take to effectively use/deploy the tool
• Using Selenium/WebDriver? – Do you need a Framework?

6. Selecting an Automation Tool
08/24/2015
Webinar-MakingtheTransition
fromManualtoAutomatedTesting
Selenium/ WebDriver has emerged as the
preferred choice test automation of Web
applications
But building test automation with Selenium
requires specialized skills and resources

7. Selenium Infrastructure
• You can build your own Selenium & Browser infrastructure
• All combinations of Browsers, OS and Devices
• It involves time, effort and resources
• Hardware and network infrastructure
• Upgrade Selenium
• Upgrade browser and OS versions
• Or you can use the Sauce Labs Cloud
