The document discusses Selenium and Specflow, which are tools for automating browser testing and behavior-driven development. Selenium allows automating browsers through its WebDriver API, while Specflow uses Gherkin syntax like Given, When, Then to describe test cases in plain language. The document provides code examples and tips for thinking in behaviors rather than actions when using these tools, and recommends additional tools like NUnit and page object modeling to create robust and maintainable test automation.

BDD with SpecFlow and Selenium
BDD (Behavior-driven development), also known as ATDD (Acceptance test–driven development) is a software development process that helps Agile teams design, develop, test and deliver software efficiently, it's about how to implement agile acceptance testing and binding business requirements to code. BDD helps to bridge the communication gap between stakeholders and implementation teams, build quality into software from the start, design, develop and deliver systems fit for purpose. SpecFlow is the official tool to implement BDD on the .NET platform.

Test and Behaviour Driven Development (TDD/BDD)
In this introduction to Test Driven Development (TDD) or Behaviour Driven Development (BDD) we give a high level description of what it is and why it is useful for developers. Then we go into some details on stubs and mocks, test data, UI testing, SQL testing, JavaScript testing, web services testing and how to start doing TDD/BDD on an existing code base.
Automated Acceptance Tests & Tool choice
Automated Acceptance Testing (and tool choice)
Automated acceptance testing has many names: acceptance-test driven development (ATDD), story-test driven development (STDD), agile acceptance testing and, most recently, specification by example. At the heart of all these approaches is to produce business-facing tests which are system tests running end-to-end, picking up regression issues and improving confidence that the code works as required.
In this talk, I will contextualise how each of these approaches share in common a three-tier layering strategy: acceptance criteria, test implementation layer and application driver layer. This is important because applying this approach requires a tool choice and each tool tends to have its own sweet (and blind) spot that is best understood through these layers.
I will first deep dive into sample code across a few tools (Cucumber, Fitnesse, Concordion) to illustrate this layering. I use an example that shows how to decouple the GUI from tests (window driver pattern).
Finally, I will look at some typical client scenarios to examine which tools might best suited because tool choice is not simply a host operating system question (.Net, Java, Ruby).
DevQA: make your testers happier with Groovy, Spock and Geb (Greach 2014)
Writing functional tests using Geb in a Grails application is fine for a development team. But when you have QA automation engineers, giving them access to the Grails app might not be the best solution (specially when they belong to a different team).
So the same way DevOps allow developers and sysadmins collaborate together, let’s talk about DevQA, and make them happy using a framework stack powered by Groovy.
Besides above considerations, in this talk I will show a live example on how to setup an independent project for functional tests using Gradle, Groovy, Spock and Geb.
TDD and BDD and ATDD
What is main difference between Behavior Driven Development and Acceptance Test Driven Development? How can we start using one of these practices. What books should you read to get more details about Testing By Specification?

Mastering Test Automation: How to Use Selenium Successfully
** WATCH FULL WEBINAR RECORDING HERE: https://youtu.be/06H-6hjyyvI **
What is Selenium? Why should you use it? And how do you use it successfully?
In this webinar, Automation expert Dave Haeffner answers these questions as he steps through the why, how, and what of Selenium.
Dave also discusses how to start from nothing and build out a well factored, maintainable, resilient, fast and scalable set of tests. These tests will not only work well, but across all of the browsers you care about, while exercising relevant functionality that matters to your business.
Watch this webinar and learn how to:
* Decompose an existing web application to identify what to test
* Pick the best language for you and your team
* Write maintainable and reusable Selenium tests that will be cross-browser compatible and performant
* Dramatically improve your test coverage with automated visual testing
* Build an integrated feedback loop to automate test runs and find issues fast
Rspec and Capybara Intro Tutorial at RailsConf 2013
Behavior-Driven Development and Acceptance Testing are heavily intertwined and in many aspects are one and the same. Both focus on starting at the outer layers of your application by concentrating on what matter to users; behavior. In this session/workshop we'll talk about how testing can be used both for specifying your application yet to be develop expected behavior and as accurate, running documentation that can be used to validate your stakeholder's acceptance criteria. We'll talk about the different types of testing and do a few hands-on exercises to flesh out a Rails application with RSpec and Capybara.

Written and presented by Fernando Martin.
Automated End-to End-Testing is a two-edged sword; it can be the hero, saving you time during regression testing and preventing faulty releases, or it can be the villain, slowing down the development and release process with flaky, hard to maintain and time-consuming suites that you don't trust or want.
Test automation expert and leading software developer Fernando Martin have seen both. In this talk, he will go through key lessons he learnt, and how he applied them to open source AugmentedDriver - a tool that allowed his team to run more than 80,000 tests in a month, running suites of more than 275 tests in less than 15 minutes.
Watch this in-depth webinar, and learn how to:
Lesson 1: Achieve Throughput: UI tests are inherently slow. Learn how to focus on Parallelism to achieve throughput.
Lesson 2: Achieve Reliability: Learn how to avoid common flakiness pitfalls that make tests unreliable.
Lesson 3: Achieve Modularity and Re-usability: Learn how to architect your framework so it can be easily extended and it can quickly adapt to changes.
Lesson 4: Achieve Encapsulation of Business Logic: Learn how to effectively combine all the previous lessons to make your tests sturdy and readable.
Lesson 5: Achieve Visibility and Transparency: Reporting; consolidating each piece of your framework into something that can be easily understood and digested by the rest of your team.
Lesson 6: Integration and Easy Configuration: Provide easy configuration so the suites can be run effortless by the rest of your team and can be plugged into your CI Systems.

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI support
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.

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. He is known for his dynamic presentations in CI/CD and application security integrated in software delivery lifecycle.

Elevating Tactical DDD Patterns Through Object Calisthenics
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!
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
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.
