test automation Questions

I'm trying to expand Automation Testing (using Tools).  However Technical staff are pointing to negative articles on fagility of UI testing is not the way forward.  However if you set out Automtion Standards on how to use xpaths or giving unique names to screen elements this then changes how fagile tests are.  Of course if you consistently have screen redesign happening then you would not want to automated. I would like a few articles that support Automation using tools like ranorex or test complete but not from the companies themselves that I can reference in the purposal.

Thank you

Is automatic test design / preparation is long way to go? Can someone suggest me the set of domains / platforms where it is feasible and acheivable? Note: I am not referring Automatic Test Execution.

A compay having projects in several programming languages and frameworks, which agnostic testing tools do you know that can be used in all or several of them?

One example is cloc that counts lines of code.

Which others do you know for static analysis, traceability and other common testing tasks ?

What is the future of manual Testing in software testing. And if no automation skills a resouces has where should he move now.What are the diffferent options available.

 

One of the challenges our QA faces is being able to test our application, which abstracts behavior from the SaaS API, such as the SF API, Eloqua API, Google API, etc., and ensuring the applicatino is behaving correctly.  Some SaaS sources have data that changes and we DO need to also verify data.  Since some of the SaaS sources are also not updateable programatically, you can't know if the SUT is in the state you need it.  Thoughts?

It seems that a popular approach to QA automation is a quick start to cover a most critical area with automated tests ASAP and then proceed automating other areas of testing. This second phase requires more dedicated tool(s). So, what features are most important for such a tool so that it could be useful for your web application?

  • Visual baseline: to compare with results of new test runs
  • Smart CSS selectors: to find and interact with CSS elements on a web page
  • Ignore from comparison: selecting areas on a page which should not be checked for differences
  • Clone, parameterize and invoke tests: reuse existing tests for quick creation of new ones, with the same or new parameters (such as start URL, text entries, login credentials etc)
  • CI-friendly: test execution via Jenkins jobs or with the help of any other popular CI tool
  • Codeless/code-based
  • Your own options?

Hi guys,

am new to the Specflow automation tool. Is there a user friendly gui  extension or bolt on available in Visual Studio for aiding the automation of test cases?

 

thanks

My preference would be tools that have record and playback functionality.  There are lots of automated tools for Windows, but only a few for CentOS Linux.
