Amalgamation of BDD, parallel execution and mobile automation
Amalgamation of Behavior driven development (BDD), parallel execution and mobile automation by Mradul Kapoor Jigesh Shah
Agile methodology
The document discusses agile development and scrum methodology. It notes that agile delivers results faster through market feedback, helps mitigate risks early, and scrum uses short iterations or sprints to frequently deliver working software. Scrum roles include product owner, team members, and scrum master. Daily stand-ups help track progress, while retrospectives and adjustments to sprint backlogs improve the process iteration to iteration. Advantages include quality updates, adaptability to changes, and client control, while disadvantages can include less documentation and need for experienced resources.
SauceCon 2017: Building a Continuous Delivery Pipeline with Testing in Mind
Now more than ever, engineering teams of all sizes are under pressure to deliver quality code more frequently. With the DevOps ecosystem growing larger every day, it might seem overwhelming to fully understand how to create an end-to-end solution that allows developers to continually commit new code with confidence, without having to slow down due to rollbacks. Achieving this true Continuous Deployment pipeline is difficult, but not impossible.
Join Neil Manvar, Solutions Architect from Sauce Labs, as he demonstrates a full CD pipeline containing a Pull Request build which will be used to test changes in isolation before code is merged into the master codebase. Using a JS based code tech stack, with AngularJS for the source code, Karma/Jasmine for unit tests and Protractor for functional (Selenium) tests, he will safely push quality code to production leveraging the following tools:
- Jenkins for CI / orchestration
- Github for Source Code Management
- Docker for creating/deploying container running the application
- Sauce Labs for running tests in various browser/OS combinations
By running through all of the various steps involved in deploying code changes safely and automatically to production, Neil will discuss the ways in which the PR Build creates a real time developer feedback and enforcement mechanism, thus eliminating bottlenecks. He will also discuss the implementation strategies, as well as challenges, along with results and culture changes that come with truly embracing DevOps methodologies.

Measuring your way_to_successful_automation_webinar
Developing a set of metrics is the first step to make in your transition to automation. A quantitative goal will help convince your boss what you need now and help you measure improvement over time.
In this Webinar, Rajeev Rai, the CEO of QASource, who has over 25 years of experience in QA and is a veteran at creating and managing high quality teams, will discuss metrics that helped him overcome challenges to drive automation success.
Test Automation Beyond Test Execution
This document discusses test automation beyond just test execution. It introduces model-based testing (MBT) as a potential solution to challenges like tight schedules, low resources, and continuous changes. MBT uses visual models of system behavior to understand all possible scenarios and improve test coverage. It can make the test design process smarter, faster and earlier. MBT frameworks allow requirements analysis, test writing and testing, and maintenance across roles like business analysts, developers and testers. Success requires modeling skills, early adoption, peer reviews, management support, and focusing on concepts before tools. The document advocates integrating MBT with automated testing for maximum benefit.
Making the Transition from Manual to Automated Testing
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.
Test Early, Test Often, Test Left
Shifting Left can save your organization lots of time and money, but only if you implement it in the right way. Here, we'll show you how to achieve a successful transformation.
How to deploy with confidence
This document discusses how wego.here.com achieves continuous deployment with confidence through development rules, code reviews, feature flags, progressive rollouts, extensive testing at all levels, A/B testing, performance regression testing, blue-green deployments, analytics and monitoring, and a continuous deployment pipeline. Some key metrics include over 2000 commits and over 400 PR deployments in 2016, with deployments taking approximately 47 minutes from commit to production. Continuous deployment allows for lower risk releases, faster delivery of value to users, higher quality through automated testing and easy rollbacks, and a hypothesis-driven approach to product development through A/B testing.

ATAGTR2017 Keeping pace with Product Evolution: UI Automation Framework Guide...Agile Testing Alliance
The document discusses how to structure automation test frameworks to help them withstand changes to the application under test. It recommends separating automation code into business, implementation, and element repository layers. The business layer defines test cases agnostic of the application, while the implementation layer defines how actions are performed. The element repository stores locators, allowing them to change without breaking tests. When the application evolves, changes are typically needed only in the element repository layer. Structuring tests in this way helps automation scripts remain useful despite application changes.Sgin2013 scrumfromthe trenches-agile and automation-sanjuburkule
The document discusses the importance of test automation for achieving agile development. It notes that manual testing can take weeks and is a barrier to timely releases. To overcome this, the author recommends automating test cases and focusing on speed of testing. While test automation has challenges like inconsistent procedures and complex setups, it allows for continuous integration and results in being able to release more frequently. The document also provides a table of standard testing tools that each product team should use to help achieve agility across the company.

How to make Automation an asset for Organization
This presentation was presented in international QA&Test conference in Bilbao, spain from 17th-19th October 2012.
7 steps to Software test automation success
Ten steps to test automation success are outlined. The key steps are to improve testing processes, define requirements, prove automation concepts, design products for testability, create sustainable test designs, plan deployments, and address challenges. Test automation can significantly reduce testing effort and increase coverage, but requires careful test selection, design, and addressing common problems like lack of goals, experience, and understanding of new technologies.
Automated testing
Automated testing involves using special software to control test execution and compare actual and expected outcomes without human intervention. It allows tests to run automatically, increasing speed and coverage while reducing costs compared to manual testing. High risk, repetitive, tedious, and time-consuming tests are best candidates for automation. Proper planning, tool selection, scope definition, and maintenance are required for effective automated testing in agile environments. Automation should start small and be added incrementally with each new implementation.
Chapter 10
Test automation can provide benefits such as increased test speed and coverage, reduced costs, and more consistent testing. However, test automation also has pitfalls like being inflexible to changes and requiring significant maintenance. The document discusses different generations of test automation such as record and playback, scripting, data-driven, and keyword-driven approaches. Later generations generally have better maintainability and reusability than earlier record and playback approaches.
Software Test Automation
SQA Solution’s software test automation services combines the speed of software test automation with low cost. We have automated testing for applications running on every major platform, using a wide range of well-known tools as well as custom-developed test automation solutions.
How to Optimise Continuous Testing
Organisations turn to Agile and DevOps to improve customer experience by maximising the speed of delivery without sacrificing quality. As the champions of quality, testers achieve this goal through continuous testing. Test Automation plays a major role in continuous testing; it is the backbone of the continuous test process. To achieve continuous testing, automation must be applied at every stage of the development process. Developing a smart automation strategy and using the right tools is critical in achieving continuous testing since test scripts must be scalable and easy to maintain.
Use Jenkins For Continuous Load Testing And Mobile Test Automation
The document discusses using Jenkins for continuous load testing and mobile test automation. It describes how Jenkins can be used to automate testing across sprints in an agile methodology. Specifically, it outlines how to leverage Jenkins to run functional tests continuously and repurpose those tests for performance and load testing. This helps ensure applications are thoroughly tested before each release.
Automation Concepts
The document discusses key aspects of successful test automation including:
1. Applying a software development process to automation to improve reliability and maintainability.
2. Improving testing processes with robust manual testing and defect management before automating.
3. Clearly defining requirements for what to automate and goals of the automation effort.
Test automation and beyond developing an effective continuous test strategy d...
Continuous testing is one of the most effective ways of building quality into the continuous delivery pipeline; yet it is difficult to implement in practice. Continuous testing involves more than test automation. Although test automation is a must; continuous risk analysis and optimizing the test suite is critical so that test automation doesn’t become a bottleneck in the DevOps pipeline. In this presentation, you’ll learn how to implement an effective continuous test strategy throughout the continuous delivery pipeline.

manual & automation testing
Automation testing involves using software tools to execute pre-scripted tests on an application before its release. It aims to simplify and automate as much testing effort as possible. Automation testing tools can execute tests, report outcomes, and compare results across test runs. Manual testing of multilingual sites is time-consuming and prone to errors, while automation testing can run unattended and is faster. Risky, time-consuming, repetitive, and difficult tests are best candidates for automation. Test tool selection depends on the application's technology. The scope of automation should be defined and include important, reused, and complex features. Automation brings benefits like repeatability, reusability, reliability, speed, comprehensiveness, and cost
AgileTesting_Ver1.0
The document discusses agile testing approaches. It defines testing as executing software with test cases to find failures and demonstrate correct execution. It then discusses key aspects of agile testing including: running tests iteratively throughout development rather than just at the end; automating tests wherever practical; and having testers work collaboratively as part of development teams. It outlines success factors like focusing on delivering customer value and continually improving testing practices. The document advocates for automating a large portion of testing to provide rapid feedback and free up resources while balancing automation costs.

Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).

A tale of scale & speed: How the US Navy is enabling software delivery from l...
Rapid and secure feature delivery is a goal across every application team and every branch of the DoD. The Navy’s DevSecOps platform, Party Barge, has achieved:
- Reduction in onboarding time from 5 weeks to 1 day
- Improved developer experience and productivity through actionable findings and reduction of false positives
- Maintenance of superior security standards and inherent policy enforcement with Authorization to Operate (ATO)
Development teams can ship efficiently and ensure applications are cyber ready for Navy Authorizing Officials (AOs). In this webinar, Sigma Defense and Anchore will give attendees a look behind the scenes and demo secure pipeline automation and security artifacts that speed up application ATO and time to production.
We will cover:
- How to remove silos in DevSecOps
- How to build efficient development pipeline roles and component templates
- How to deliver security artifacts that matter for ATO’s (SBOMs, vulnerability reports, and policy evidence)
- How to streamline operations with automated policy checks on container images
Removing Uninteresting Bytes in Software Fuzzing
Imagine a world where software fuzzing, the process of mutating bytes in test seeds to uncover hidden and erroneous program behaviors, becomes faster and more effective. A lot depends on the initial seeds, which can significantly dictate the trajectory of a fuzzing campaign, particularly in terms of how long it takes to uncover interesting behaviour in your code. We introduce DIAR, a technique designed to speedup fuzzing campaigns by pinpointing and eliminating those uninteresting bytes in the seeds. Picture this: instead of wasting valuable resources on meaningless mutations in large, bloated seeds, DIAR removes the unnecessary bytes, streamlining the entire process.
In this work, we equipped AFL, a popular fuzzer, with DIAR and examined two critical Linux libraries -- Libxml's xmllint, a tool for parsing xml documents, and Binutil's readelf, an essential debugging and security analysis command-line tool used to display detailed information about ELF (Executable and Linkable Format). Our preliminary results show that AFL+DIAR does not only discover new paths more quickly but also achieves higher coverage overall. This work thus showcases how starting with lean and optimized seeds can lead to faster, more comprehensive fuzzing campaigns -- and DIAR helps you find such seeds.

Climate Impact of Software Testing at Nordic Testing Days
My slides at Nordic Testing Days 6.6.2024
Climate impact / sustainability of software testing discussed on the talk. ICT and testing must carry their part of global responsibility to help with the climat warming. We can minimize the carbon footprint but we can also have a carbon handprint, a positive impact on the climate. Quality characteristics can be added with sustainability, and then measured continuously. Test environments can be used less, and in smaller scale and on demand. Test techniques can be used in optimizing or minimizing number of tests. Test automation can be used to speed up testing.
