This document discusses test automation, including what it means, when it should be used, best practices, and examples of automation tools. Test automation involves writing software to reproduce the steps of a manual test process. It is useful for speeding up testing, improving coverage, and ensuring consistency. Tests that are repeated or will be run frequently are good candidates for automation. Common automation tools include NUnit, JUnit, Sahi, QTP, JMeter and Load Runner. Best practices include choosing the right tool, only automating repeated tests, identifying automatable cases, and using a data-driven approach.
This document discusses different types of software testing and test-driven development. It defines functions and how to pass arguments to functions. It describes assertions as true-false statements to check conditions and preconditions and postconditions to define the expected state before and after code execution. It lists different types of testing including unit testing, integration testing, and regression testing. It explains test-driven development as a process of writing automated tests before code to define desired functions and improvements and repeating testing and coding until passing all tests.
This document provides an introduction to automation testing. It discusses the need for automation testing to improve speed, reliability and test coverage. The document outlines when tests should be automated such as for regression testing or data-driven testing. It also discusses automation tool options and the process for automating tests. While automation testing provides benefits like time savings, it also has limitations such as the need for programming skills and maintenance of test code. Key challenges of automation testing include unrealistic expectations of tools and dependency on third party integrations.
This document discusses automated testing, including unit testing. It provides an overview of the types of automated testing and why they are useful. Specifically, it notes that automated testing is needed to test complex applications, support frequent releases, and ensure the application is working after code changes. It also discusses unit testing in depth, including what constitutes a good unit test, test-driven development, and common unit testing frameworks and tools.
The document discusses a test automation framework (TAF) that helps perform automated testing effectively. It has several key features including being keyword-driven, product-independent, tool-independent, and compatible with continuous integration frameworks. The TAF workflow involves initialization, development, usage, and maintenance phases. The TAF architecture consists of test scenarios that run via the TAF core and output results to various formats.
Creating automation scripts using a generic framework is useful. The framework should have recovery scenarios and it should also perform a quick check after test execution using customized logs. The test execution summary must provide accurate information on test case execution. This article on IBM® Rational® Functional Tester elaborates this process.
RFT Tutorial 4 How Do We Record A Script Using Rational Functional Tester - RFTYogindernath Gupta
This tutorial describes the 11 step process for recording a script in Rational Functional Tester (RFT) from IBM. The steps include setting recording options, creating a new script, starting the test application, performing actions, inserting verification points and script commands, and stopping the recording. The recorded script and object map are then written to the project directory.
The document describes an automation testing framework based on Business Process Testing. Subject matter experts define business processes, components, and tests, while automation engineers define resources, libraries, and recovery scenarios. Together they build, run, and document business process tests without requiring programming knowledge from subject matter experts. The framework uses HP Functional Test (UFT/QTP) and supports Windows XP/Vista/7 and Internet Explorer 7-11. It includes diagrams of the framework and folder structure, and approaches test automation through requirement gathering, test case identification, script development, and reporting.
The document discusses test case structure and specifications. It defines a test case as a set of inputs, expected results, and execution conditions used to test a specific program path or requirement. A test case specification is a document that specifies test cases by outlining objectives, inputs, test actions, expected results, and preconditions. It also provides guidelines for writing effective test cases, such as keeping them short, using simple language, and providing test data and notes when possible. The overall goal is to write test cases early based on design to allow for early bug detection and efficient testing once code is completed.

Testers entering the Agile domain are no longer on the other side of the wall. Without the wall, the developer playground of CI is a testing smorgasbord. As an Agile Tester there are many ways to consider how to design and execute automated tests and continuously keep the pulse on quality of the builds. However when it comes to leveraging existing CI pipeline for functional and performance tests many testers may not realize that main ingredients are already built-in. This presentation will share the recipes on how to propel functional and performance automated tests with immediate test results feedback to the entire team with your existent CI engine.
Presentation is base on:
• Hudson/Jenkins CI engine
• Ruby and Rake to setup, execute and tear-down test environments
• Hpricot (Ruby gem) and Hudson plug-ins to report and trend graphical results dynamically

Moving from Ad Hoc Testing to Continuous Test Data with FitNesseJoris Meerts
The document discusses moving from ad hoc testing to continuous test data using FitNesse. It describes the context of a legacy e-commerce system and outlines reasons for automating testing. FitNesse is presented as a tool that allows separating test data from tests and modularizing test code. Some lessons learned include balancing test automation with exploratory testing and ensuring test code is maintainable. In conclusion, test automation helps observe system behavior and catch bugs with data running through the system continuously.
Test-Driven Development (TDD) and Behaviour-Driven Development (BDD) are powerful techniques, helping developers write better designed, more maintainable and more reliable code, and stay focused on the real user requirements. But how does the rest of the team fit in to the picture?
In this talk, we will look at how BDD techniques, and tools such as easyb, FitNesse, and other BDD-related tools can also act as drivers for the overall development process, and also as communication tools, giving testers and end-users clear and unambiguous feedback on what is being developed and where it is at in terms of delivery and schedule.
The document discusses the Acceptance Test Driven Development (ATDD) cycle. It emphasizes that the business owner, testers, and developers must collaborate face-to-face instead of working in isolation. This involves holding round table meetings to discuss user stories, ask for help, and clarify any technical language or definitions. The process also includes distilling requirements, emitting questions about expected outputs, and demoing work with feedback from all members.
Some Observations from the Innovation ChasmJoris Meerts
From my experience, there is a large number of testers that belong to the ‘late majority’; a conservative crowd that is skeptical, out of touch with the latest developments and not eager to learn about them. There are several factors that keep these testers from becoming an ‘early majority’ or even ‘early adopters’. To discuss these factors I will introduce a model of the field of software testing in which the gaps between academia, thought leaders, the industry and the testing practitioners become visible.
This document provides an introduction and overview of jQuery, including:
1) The benefits of jQuery such as its shallow learning curve, ease of DOM manipulation, cross-browser compatibility, and extensibility through plugins.
2) How to get started with jQuery by downloading the library and using basic selectors and functions.
3) Examples of jQuery selectors, actions, and effects that can be used to manipulate and style page elements.
4) Important jQuery concepts like the DOM, CSS selectors, JSON, and using events like "ready" and "click" to execute code.
ATDD is about improving communication between stakeholders to develop the right product. It involves collaboratively specifying requirements using examples of desired system behaviors in a testable format. These executable specifications are then automated as tests to prevent defects and ensure the system works as intended. SpecFlow is one framework that can be used to automate acceptance criteria written in a Given-When-Then style.
Nessa apresentação irei tratar sobre como o framework do Specflow pode auxiliar no desenvolvimento de uma feature, testando e desenvolvendo através de regras de negócio legiveis e requisitos vivos.
Acceptance Test Driven Development With Spec Flow And FriendsChristopher Bartling
The document discusses Acceptance Test Driven Development (ATDD) using SpecFlow and other tools. SpecFlow is a .NET framework that allows writing acceptance tests in a business-readable language and generates automated tests. Features describe system functionality through scenarios, and SpecFlow generates tests from scenarios. The document also discusses related tools like WatiN and WebAii for browser automation, best practices, and includes a demo of an ATDD-developed Net Present Value calculator.

TestWorks Conf 2015 Beefing up FitNesse - Arjan MolenaarXebia Nederland BV
The mission of FitNesse has always been to provide a vehicle for programmers and non programmers to formally describe the behavior they desire from software systems. FitNesse has grown to a comprehensive authoring and execution platform for acceptance tests and functional specifications. During this talk there was a demonstration how FitNesse can be extended with test systems like JBehave and Cucumber, and the benefits of combining those tools. Additionally we’ll discuss several best practices in how to use FitNesse properly, using plugins and IDE support.
JavaLand: Quantified Social - Fitness-Geräte und -Portale mit AgoravaWerner Keil
Quantified Self ist die Messung, Protokollierung und in der Regel das Teilen von Gesundheits- und Fitnessdaten mit anderen über einen gewissen Zeitraum durch Verwendung von Sensoren - zur Förderung eines gesünderen Lebensstils, um fit zu bleiben oder Gewicht zu verlieren. Andere Anwendungsfälle sind Messung von Blutzuckerspiegel, Puls oder Herzfrequenz - die Grenzen zwischen Freizeit/Fitness und Gesundheitswesen sind hier oft fließend.
Diese Session bietet einen Überblick zu populären Fitness-Geräten, APIs, Fitness- und IoT-Portalen. Deren Anbindung durch Agorava, das Social Framework auf Basis von CDI, JAX-RS, JSON und OAuth. Dank paralleler Unterstützung mehrerer APIs ermöglicht Agorava nicht nur, Freunde bei Fitbit, Strava, Twitter oder Facebook über die Leistungen zu informieren, sondern auch etwa bei Foursquare auf der Strecke einzuchecken.

2) He discussed the Coding Dojo mindset of collaborative learning and test-driven development.
3) The Gilded Rose Kata models an inventory system where items degrade over time according to various rules, including special rules for items like Brie and backstage passes. The goal is to write tests to cover these rules.
FitNesse is an open-source automated framework for Integration, Acceptance Testing. It increases collaboration between developers, testers and customers. This presentation was presented at Knoldus Knolx session. We used Scala to write Fixtures and used simple example to explain it.
This document discusses testing RESTful web services using REST Assured. It provides an overview of REST and HTTP methods like GET, POST, PUT, DELETE. It explains why API automation is required for early defect detection, contract validation, stopping builds on failure. REST Assured allows testing and validating REST services in Java and integrates with frameworks like JUnit and TestNG. It provides methods to format HTTP requests, send requests, validate status codes and response data. REST Assured also handles authentication mechanisms. The document provides instructions on adding the REST Assured Maven dependency and writing tests, including an example of a GET request.
The presentation on Test the REST was done during #ATAGTR2017, one of the largest global testing conference. All copyright belongs to the author.

This document summarizes the benefits of using vREST for REST API testing. It addresses that initial setup for test automation can be time consuming but vREST provides a browser extension to quickly record test cases. It also notes that vREST removes the need for programming skills normally required for test automation. Further, vREST allows test cases to be easily managed, tagged, and replicated between versions. Finally, it highlights that vREST enables simple maintenance of large test suites through features like bulk operations and diff reports.
Agile Mumbai 2020 Conference | How to get the best ROI on Your Test Automati...AgileNetwork
- Writing automated tests takes a significant amount of time and effort, often resulting in test code that is twice or three times the size of the actual code being tested. This occurs because tests are written in isolation and dependencies must be mocked.
- A better approach is to write tests that focus on behaviors and public interfaces rather than implementation details. Tests should not break when implementation details change, only when public behaviors change. This allows for easier refactoring of code without breaking tests.
- Rather than focusing solely on unit tests, more effort should be put into system level testing which typically finds twice as many bugs. Tests can also be improved by designing them more formally and moving assertions directly into the code being tested.
Productivity Acceleration Tools for SOA TestersWSO2
- soapUI and Apache JMeter are popular tools for testing SOA and web services. soapUI allows automated testing of SOAP and REST services while JMeter is useful for load and performance testing.
- Examples showed how to use soapUI for testing SOAP services with authentication, assertions and REST services. JMeter examples included dynamic data testing, accessing APIs through tokens, and running tests in headless mode.
- Tips included using HTTPClient4 for load testing, disabling views for high throughput, external plugins, and isolating client/server for accurate performance metrics.
Performance testing involves testing a system to determine how it performs under a particular workload. The document discusses various types of performance testing like load/capacity testing, stress testing, volume testing, endurance testing, and spike testing. It also discusses concepts like bottlenecks, prerequisites for performance testing, popular load testing tools like JMeter, and how to use key JMeter features for performance testing like adding users, HTTP requests, listeners, parameterization, correlation, assertions, and distributed testing.
POST/CON 2019 Workshop: Testing, Automated Testing, and Reporting APIs with P...Postman
This document provides an agenda and overview for a workshop on testing, automation, and reporting with Postman. The workshop will cover testing concepts and practical exercises, advanced testing techniques like dynamic variables and Chai assertions, automation with the Collection Runner and Newman, and creating reports. Speakers Trent McCann and Danny Dainton will present on prerequisites, testing modules, breaks, automation, and workshop wrap-up.
This document discusses test automation, including the purpose of test automation, the test automation process, and the test automation pyramid. The key points are:
1. Test automation aims to improve test efficiency, provide wider test coverage, reduce costs, and speed up testing.
2. The test automation process involves defining the test scope, designing tests, coding tests, setting up the test environment, running tests, and maintaining automation over time.
3. The test automation pyramid illustrates that unit tests should form the base, as they are quick to write and run, while user interface tests are at the top as they are more complex and time-consuming.
The document provides information about performance testing using Jmeter 2.6. It discusses what performance testing is and the different types including load/capacity testing, stress testing, volume testing, endurance testing, and spike testing. Load testing is described as the simplest form of performance testing to understand system behavior under an expected load. Bottlenecks can be identified through load testing. Stress testing finds a system's capacity limit. Volume testing checks efficiency by processing huge data amounts. Endurance testing checks if a system can withstand load for long periods. Spike testing suddenly increases load to observe behavior. Pre-requisites for performance testing and load testing tools are also mentioned, with JMeter described as an open source tool that can test various server
The document discusses factors to consider when choosing a test automation tool and framework. It describes how manual testing is time-consuming and prone to errors, while automation testing addresses these issues. The key steps in selecting a tool are to analyze requirements, skill sets, costs, and evaluate tools based on parameters like ease of use, support, and integration. Implementing a hybrid framework combines the benefits of modular, data-driven and keyword-driven approaches. Proof of concept testing potential tools helps confirm the right selection. Choosing tools and frameworks requires effort but pays off in project success.
The document provides an overview of the integration between the Homeserve USA HS Business application and the Ensura ERP system using Talend ESB.

A leading New Zealand bank wanted to extensively test its ESB and APIs. With IntegrationQA and Parasoft, it created reusable automated tests covering smoke, transformation, data variance, error handling, and business workflows. This reduced risks and saved over $2.1 million NZD in testing and development costs over 18 months.
API testing is a type of software testing that involves testing application programming interfaces (APIs) directly and as part of integration testing to determine if they meet expectations for functionality, reliability, performance, and security.
Richard Ettema presented on test driven development using FHIR. He discussed how continuous testing through TestScripts can help ensure interoperability and reduce risks compared to one-time testing. Touchstone is a publicly available testing platform that executes TestScripts against FHIR implementations. Organizations can use Touchstone for conformance testing, during software development, and to author their own TestScripts. Hands-on exercises demonstrated registering with Touchstone and executing sample TestScripts.
This document provides an overview of performance testing using JmeterTool. It discusses key concepts like load testing, stress testing, and endurance testing. It describes the goals of performance testing such as assessing production readiness and discovering bottlenecks. The prerequisites for performance testing and typical testing lifecycle are also outlined. Best practices like using ramp up/down periods and repeating tests are recommended. Challenges in performance testing and common fixes to performance issues are also covered. Finally, it provides an introduction to the various elements in Jmeter like samplers, listeners, timers, and controllers that are used to build test plans and simulate load on systems.
The document discusses different layers of automated acceptance testing and compares different toolsets for each layer. The three layers are: 1) Acceptance Criteria Layer which defines test scenarios in a business-readable format, 2) Test Implementation Layer which implements tests against the system under test, and 3) Application Driver Layer which executes tests against the application. Popular tools like Cucumber, Concordion and FitNesse are compared across the layers in terms of their functionality and how each layer is addressed. The document also provides references and suggestions for further exploring related testing concepts.
The document provides an overview of software test automation and testing frameworks. It discusses:
- What test automation is and where it fits in the software development life cycle. Key benefits include increasing test coverage, reducing manual testing, and enabling regression testing.
- What testing frameworks are and why they are needed. Frameworks provide standardized environments for executing automated tests and reporting results.
- The main types of testing frameworks: modular, data-driven, and keyword-driven. Data-driven frameworks separate test data from test scripts for increased flexibility.
- A shift from traditional waterfall models to more agile development approaches and the rise of test-driven development and behavior-driven development.

3. Acceptance Testing
• Acceptance Testing is a high-level testing procedure
used to verify that a software system behaves as
specified by customer.
• The term Acceptance Testing itself is strongly related to
the agile software development method Extreme
Programming (XP).
4. Acceptance Tests by definition
• Acceptance tests are created from user stories. During an
iteration the user stories selected during the iteration
planning meeting will be translated into acceptance tests.
The customer specifies scenarios to test when a user story
has been correctly implemented. A story can have one or
many acceptance tests, what ever it takes to ensure the
functionality works.
• Acceptance tests are black box system tests.
• Each acceptance test represents some expected result from
the system.
• A user story is not considered complete until it has passed its
acceptance tests.
• Acceptance tests should be automated so they can be run
often.
5. Benefits of Acceptance Tests
Some of the benefits using Acceptance Tests:
1. Helps to clarify requirements,
2. Tests are written using customer language,
3. Shows working software in a real environment,
4. Increase communication within the team,
5. Can be considered as an absolute criteria for deciding
when a feature is complete,
6. Eliminates ambiguity from users stories,
7. Can be seen as a partial replacement for
documentation.
6. Many tools to implement it
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
Fitnesse
Cucumber
Concordion
Selenium
GreenPepper
Jbehave
Others
7. Which one should I use?
• It depends on:
1. The Programming Language
2. The Development Infrastructure and Tools,
3. The OS
8. We did a choice: Fitnesse for REST
• After a brief analysis of each tool, and an small PoC, we
found Fitnesse the best tool for our project. Why:
1. The tests are written in a wiki format,
2. The implementation was very easy,
3. We didn’t need to touch anything in our code, since with a single
table we can write complex tests,
4. Fitnesse exposes a REST interface to run the tests in a suite
automatically returning XML results,
5. The received XML can be transformed using an XSLT file to
convert the results to JUnit format, in this way, it will be integrated
to Bamboo,
6. It has a big community in the Open Source world.
9. FitNesse & RESTful Web Services
•
•
•
•
•
•
One thing that acceptance testing can perform very well is the validation of
RESTful web services, but unfortunately FitNesse does not provide native
support for testing RESTful web services. Fortunately if you search the
Internet you'll quickly find a custom fixture called RestFixture that does most
of what you will need to test your web services. In
short, the RestFixture allows you to execute various HTTP verbs against a
service, passing the appropriate data, and then validate the results.
The RestRixture is an ActionFixture, therefore all
the ActionFixture goodies are available. On top of that it contains the
following 7 methods:
header: to be able to set the headers for the next request (a CRLF
separated list of name:value pairs),
body: to allow request body input, essential for PUT and POST,
let: to allow data from the response headers and body to be extracted and
assigned to a label that can then be passed around.
GET, POST, PUT, DELETE to execute requests.
10. Getting started with RestFixture
•
Each test is a row on a RestFixture table and it has the following format:
• |VERB|uri|?ret|?headers|?body|
• VERB is one of GET, POST, PUT, DELETE
• uri is the resource URI
• ?ret is the expected return code of the request. it can be expressed as a
regular expression, that is you can write 2dd if you expect any code
between 200 and 299.
• ?headers is the expected list of headers. In fact, the expectation is checked
by verifying that *all* the headers in here are present in the response. Each
header must go in a newline and both name and value can be expressed as
regular expressions to match in order to verify inclusion.
• ?body it's the expected body in the response. This is expressed as a list of
XPath expressions to allow greater flexibility.
19. How are we using it?
• We’ve implemented FitNesse with this specific
RestFixture to validate the our REST interfaces.
• We have a suite for the interfaces already
developed, called Regression. This suite will be
executed as an smoke test after each code
commit, since it tests the sunny day of each API e2e.
• We have another suite, to test the Current sprint. This
should be RED at the very beginning of the sprint, but
should start be GREEN when the sprint is reaching the
end.
• Both test suites can be executed thru a Bamboo Plan.
The first stage (Regression) will run always, and the
second stage (Current) will be optional (we choose
when to run it).
