The document discusses how unbelievable something was. In just one word, "Unbelievably", it conveys that whatever was being referred to was almost impossible to believe and went beyond normal expectations. The brevity of using a single word emphasizes how remarkably unbelievable the situation was.
This document summarizes eBay's approach to testing. It discusses how eBay has transitioned from manual to automated testing using Selenium and how it has customized the Selenium Grid for its own needs by developing plugins. Some key points are that eBay automated 3,500 tests using Selenium Grid, developed plugins to integrate virtual machines and enable remote viewing of tests, and is exploring using Selenium for mobile and native application testing.
The poet Olavo Bilac was asked by a friend to write an announcement advertising the sale of his small farm. Bilac wrote a beautifully descriptive summary that highlighted the farm's natural beauty. When the friend read what Bilac had written, he realized what a treasure the farm was and decided not to sell it. Sometimes we underestimate the good things we have and chase after false treasures. It is best to appreciate what we have now, like our homes, families, health and other blessings, rather than regretting things later.

The document discusses the benefits of exercise for mental health. Regular physical activity can help reduce anxiety and depression and improve mood and cognitive functioning. Exercise causes chemical changes in the brain that may help protect against mental illness and improve symptoms.
Implementing Test Automation in Agile ProjectsMichael Palotas
This document discusses test automation practices at eBay. It begins by providing facts about eBay as a company and platform. It then outlines eBay's approach to test automation, which involves designing automated tests using test aspects, modeling the business domain layer, and implementing tests using Selenium. The document advocates for a lean approach to test automation to avoid technical debt and waste. It emphasizes automating regression tests first before expanding to other test types and executing tests in parallel using a Selenium Grid for faster feedback.
This document discusses how eBay tests its products and services. It notes that testing is done globally by over 300 test engineers across multiple sites. While manual testing remains important, especially for new features, eBay has invested heavily in automation to help test over 3500 test cases across its European sites in under an hour. This large-scale automation was made possible through the use of a testing grid with over 150 virtual machines and browsers. The document shows that increased automation efforts have correlated with reduced bug rates and higher quality bugs found by the EU testing team.
This document is the table of contents and first chapter of a novel titled "Easy" by Tammara Webber. The chapter introduces the main character Jackie on Halloween night as she leaves a party. On her way to her truck, she is attacked by her ex-boyfriend Buck. She is saved by a stranger who fights Buck off. Though shaken, Jackie insists they not call the police. The stranger drives her back to her dorm, still concerned for her well-being.
This document provides an overview of eBay from the perspective of Michael Palotas, Head of Quality Engineering Europe. It discusses eBay's current challenges around scaling, mobile, and cross-border trade. It also describes how eBay builds and tests software through a global network and how it approaches testing, with a focus on test automation and challenges in testing mobile apps across different devices and languages.
Test Automation and Innovation with Open Source ToolsMichael Palotas
This document discusses test automation at eBay using open source tools. It provides facts about eBay as a company and platform. The key points are:
1. eBay uses test automation with Selenium and open source tools to get early feedback from regression tests and reinvest time saved into more manual testing.
2. Their automation history started with homegrown solutions and moved to Selenium IDE, RC and now Selenium 2 along with a Selenium Grid for parallel testing across environments.
3. Using open source allows for faster innovation, independence, engagement with the community, and easier hiring. The potential risks include lack of support and competitors using the same tools.
4. Their test automation framework uses page objects, flow objects and a
Mobile test automation with Selenium, Selendroid and ios-driverMichael Palotas
Michael Palotas presented on mobile test automation. He discussed Selenium and tools like Selendroid and iOS-Driver for automating mobile apps. Palotas emphasized that automation is software development and developers should consider questions around supported platforms, test infrastructure integration, and scaling strategies. He demonstrated mobile test automation and advocated for an open source approach.
This document summarizes eBay's approach to mobile testing and test automation. It discusses the challenges of testing across different mobile devices and localizations. It outlines requirements for mobile test automation, including parallel execution and support for multiple apps, languages, and devices. It then describes eBay's test automation of the mobile web using Selenium, and their custom open source projects for automating tests of Android and iOS native apps at scale. These projects integrate mobile testing tools like Calabash and UI Automation into the Selenium grid for a consistent test automation approach across platforms.
