SauceCon 2017: Making Your Mobile App AutomatableSauce Labs
When writing test automation, one of the most important factors for determining the amount of time and resources it will consume (and ultimately the success or failure of the endeavor) is the testability of the application. This talk will cover strategies for maximizing the automatability of the application by writing highly automobile user interfaces for mobile and web, writing a test plan designed for parallelization and concurrency, and by choosing the best techniques to reliably and quickly set up test scenarios.
SauceCon 2017: Building a Continuous Delivery Pipeline with Testing in MindSauce Labs
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.
Join Sauce Labs’ Automation Specialist and Selenium project contributor, Leo Laskin, as he discusses the value of open source in testing. He will also share his personal experience in moving from manual to automated testing, the lessons he has learned, and the steps he took to build a powerful, international test coding army.

Browser Vendors are Reshaping Testing - Are You Ready?SmartBear
In this brief presentation, we'll explore how browser vendors like Chrome 45 have changed software testing forever. Check out this slideshare to learn what this means for the future of testing.
Testing NodeJS, REST APIs and MongoDB with UFTOri Bendet
Today’s applications are becoming more complex. From multi-layers applications, to micro-services to containers, QA & automation engineers are required to test more with less and without compromising the quality of the app.
Join me and Yossi Neeman as we explain the pros & cons of testing at each of the different layers of the application and also share some best practices around Agile Testing. Everything will be demonstrated on a demo application built with the latest technology stack including NodeJS, REST APIs and MongoDB and tested using UFT 12.52.
Developers have embraced Continuous Integration for years and it has proven their value for accelerating software production for Web environments. However, for mobile developers, it’s been a slow road to adopting many of these same practices. In this webinar, Kevin Rohling (Emberlight, Ship.io) and Kristian Meier (Sauce Labs) will cover best practices in implementing a mobile CI system and demonstrate how you can easily build, test and deploy mobile apps.
SauceCon 2017: Testing @ the Speed of ConcurrencySauce Labs
Learn the why, what and how of testing with concurrency. In this talk, Mike will take attendees on an automation journey of in-house machine testing into cloud-based testing. He will show what worked, what didn’t and discuss things to improve as the machines are increasingly doing the work.
By applying linting (static code analysis) tools to test code, preferably the same tools as for application code, tests can be improved which can eventually lead to better maintainability, readability and more robust tests, without even running them!
Awesome Test Automation Made Simple w/ Dave HaeffnerSauce Labs
Learn how to build simple and powerful automated tests that will work on the browsers you care about, cover visual testing and functional regressions, and be configured to run automatically through the use of a continuous integration (CI) server.
In QA organizations today, a tester must have technical know-how, good communication skills, and attention to detail. We know that a tester’s main responsibility is to test the software that developers develop to ensure that the product meets the quality standards expected of today’s applications. But apart from that, it’s difficult to measure what exactly makes a good tester.
QA managers and their team members are constantly under pressure to test faster and more efficiently, and deliver software with fewer defects. The role and importance of QA in today’s R&D teams is evolving from simply finding defects to protecting the corporate image. As a result, your testers have to be more productive and more efficient, and change their mindset to think about quality over quantity. It’s not just about finding bugs; it’s about continuing to measure and improve, and finding the right bugs to make the end-user experience better.
In this lecture I will share with you some of the key performance indicators (KPIs) that we use to measure our own testing efforts: Percentage of high/critical, escaped defects, Time to test, Defect resolution time, Percentage of rejected defects and what we’ve learned from each of them, and how our team improved its efficiency and productivity as a result.
Bringing Quality Design Systems to Life with Storybook & ApplitoolsApplitools
** Full webinar recording: https://youtu.be/R6WnEzlMHac **
Bringing design systems and component libraries to life can be a large, challenging process without the right tools. On top of that, maintaining a high level of quality throughout those systems brings its own challenge.
While there’s no shortage of ways to manually create a design system from scratch, doing so can be time consuming and can lead to technical debt when the system itself isn’t itself in a structure.
Storybook is a tool for developers that helps bring design systems and component libraries to life, providing structured tooling and a web dashboard. It gives those developers, and even designers, a way to focus on each individual component while being able to see the system from a higher perspective.
On top of that, Applitools is an automated Visual Testing solution that easily stacks right on top of Storybook with the Storybook Eyes SDK. With a single command, Applitools provides full test coverage for each component of your design system.
Join Developer Advocate, Colby Fayock, as he walks through:
How to take advantage of using Storybook to build scalable design systems
How Applitools makes automating the testing of those components easy
How to focus on building great experiences while automating quality checks with visual testing

Speaker: Anand Hariharan
Abstract:
While desktops and laptops have gotten more and more powerful, performance considerations for applications running on the desktop are not critical to the success of the app.
However, mobile devices are quickly becoming a viable computing platform and many devices now can run various applications which were only seen on the desktop previously.
As the developer community ports applications from desktop to the cell phone, performance becomes a very critical factor for success since cellphones are still under-powered as compared to the desktops.
This presentation will talk about best practices w.r.t performance while developing applications for the Android Platform. It will outline tips and techniques for extracting the best performance from android. These tips and techniques are a collation of well known java best practices that apply to Android as well as our learning at TapNTap as we go about building a next generation user interface for an Internet tablet.

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.
Elevating Tactical DDD Patterns Through Object CalisthenicsDorra BARTAGUIZ
After immersing yourself in the blue book and its red counterpart, attending DDD-focused conferences, and applying tactical patterns, you're left with a crucial question: How do I ensure my design is effective? Tactical patterns within Domain-Driven Design (DDD) serve as guiding principles for creating clear and manageable domain models. However, achieving success with these patterns requires additional guidance. Interestingly, we've observed that a set of constraints initially designed for training purposes remarkably aligns with effective pattern implementation, offering a more ‘mechanical’ approach. Let's explore together how Object Calisthenics can elevate the design of your tactical DDD patterns, offering concrete help for those venturing into DDD for the first time!

GDG Cloud Southlake #33: Boule & Rebala: Effective AppSec in SDLC using Deplo...James Anderson
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).
Speakers:
Bob Boule
Robert Boule is a technology enthusiast with PASSION for technology and making things work along with a knack for helping others understand how things work. He comes with around 20 years of solution engineering experience in application security, software continuous delivery, and SaaS platforms.

8. BIG PROBLEM #1: HOW TO KNOW HOW MUCH
THE PAGE TOOK TO LOAD
Small solution:
Based on the HTML content, loading time cannot be computed.
(element loading order is not consistent across multiple runs)

12. WHAT DATA WE COLLECT
Test 1
• Webpage load time
• CPU usage
• Memory usage
• Disk I/O
Test 2
• Timing a „complex” operation
16. RUNNING THE TEST
One test sequence:
• clear cache
• open the browser
• start reading system data
• load webpage
• close the browser
• save result in an Excel spreadsheet
Full test:
• restore the “clean” snapshot of the test environment
• automatically run the test sequence for 1000 times on the
native browser
• automatically run the the test sequence for 1000 times on
the custom browser
22. CONCLUSIONS
It can be automated with an initial effor, but the
returned value is huge.
Offers very concludent results on what needs to be
improved in the application to boost performance.
Performance testing is very important as it can
reveal performance flaws.
Is very time & effor consuming to do manually.
