Application of Traditional Software Testing Methodologies to Web AccessibilityCynthia Shelly
The document discusses various methods for testing the accessibility of web applications, including user testing, automated validation, auditing, and traditional software testing. It provides details on how each method can be used to test accessibility, as well as potential issues and limitations. The key message is that accessibility can be improved by treating it as one of many quality metrics and applying traditional software testing methods throughout the development life cycle.
Software testers are also well trained to take care of bugs that arise during the functioning of any software program. With the right quality assurance training, you will be armed with all the essentials to be qualified as a software tester. It is also essential that you enroll for a duly approved and certified training in quality assurance.
Once you acquire the necessary qa training, you will also learn the two most important skills required in software testing- advanced technical knowledge and communication.
As a proficient software tester, you should ideally possess strong written and verbal communication skills.
Good communication is important to ensure you are able to put our concepts and ideas across so that other team members understand your vision as well as understanding of the situation at hand. Even a small miscommunication can lead to serious errors in the completion of the software project.
The role of a QA professional is quite an integral one since it eases off the burden of other personnel like stakeholders, software developers as well as software managers. These people do not have to constantly worry about the quality, performance as well the errors faced in developing as well as using any new software developed.

Implementing Test Automation in Agile ProjectsDominik Dary
All new features at eBay Europe are developed using SCRUM. One key success factor for those projects is to have a reliable end-to-end test automation safety net. This presentation illustrates how in addition to a robust automation toolset it is essential to have an integrated approach to test automation design:
Test Aspects - Test Aspects are used to do the functional design of the end-to-end automation test cases. Since this is done upfront, the tester is able to focus on the what rather than the how.
Modeling of the Biz Domain Layer - The Biz Domain Layer is an abstraction layer above the user interface that is implemented in the test code. This layer is divided into pages and flows which are then used in the tests.
Test Implementation - Tests are written in Java, stored in SVN and are executed using the WebDriver Grid (Selenium2). Tests execution can be triggered by all team members via a continuous integration server (Hudson).
Lean Test Automation – it is important to retain and maintain the quality of the tests. Key success factors for this are: Code Reviews, Software Craftsmanship, Test Aspect Reviews and the “Definition of Done”.
Following an integrated approach to test automation ensures high efficiency, low overhead and easier maintenance.

Unique identifiers are needed for each requirement, use case, and test script. The matrix ensures complete testing and provides a basis for test planning. It can be a standalone document or part of other documents. Traceability prevents scope creep and ensures all requirements are satisfied.
This document provides an overview of software testing concepts and definitions. It discusses the primary purpose of testing as detecting software failures to find and fix defects. It also defines key testing terms like test scenarios versus test cases, the software testing cycle, testing methods and levels, and quality assurance versus testing. Sample login feature test scenarios and test cases are provided to illustrate these concepts.
Test cases are used to systematically test software and verify requirements. A test case contains a set of steps, expected results, and actual results. It has a name, description, prerequisites, and test data. Each test case contains multiple test steps that verify a discrete action. Best practices for writing test cases include avoiding jargon, writing steps independently, and focusing on positive scenarios. Test cases are organized into templates with required fields and naming conventions to facilitate management in testing tools.

Agile vs. waterfall - The fundamentals differencesDavid Tzemach
In this presentation I will review the main differences between waterfall and agile methodology, this presentation is a great place to start if you want to know why more and more companies are using agile as the preferred development methodology.
1) The document provides an overview of different test case design techniques including specification based testing, input domain testing, risk based testing, and scenario testing.
2) Specification based testing techniques discussed include analyzing specifications for gaps or contradictions, gathering additional information from developers, and using the 5W1H technique to derive test cases.
3) Input domain testing techniques like equivalence partitioning and boundary value analysis are covered to avoid redundant test cases around inputs.
4) Risk based testing involves imagining how a program could fail, assessing the likelihood and impact of failures, and designing test cases to expose potential failures.
5) Scenario testing uses real user personas and examples of how the software will be used to further
An RTM (requirements traceability matrix) is a table, usually a spreadsheet, that links test cases to requirements and vice versa. It is useful for large, complex projects with many requirements to help organize testing. The level of detail in an RTM depends on factors like schedule and the needs of the project manager. Various tools can be used to create an RTM, depending on company policies, including Microsoft Access, HP Test Director, and combinations of tools like Rational ClearQuest and Lotus Notes.
