Instead of getting into the discussion on why we need a process framework let’s see what are the challenges of the traditional software development processes. This has certainly been written about for several years by various experts.
Some themes are:
Requirements can’t be finalized at the beginning of a software…
Integrating Terminal window automation with regular functional automation scripts was one of the challenges that I had recently faced in one of my automation projects. Of course, there are different ways to achieve Terminal window automation like using Perl scripts, Plink simulator. Since our Framework uses JRE environment, I was…
In the previous blogs of the same series I detailed the overall implementation of the re-usable framework developed for testing web services using SOAP UI PRO. We also learnt how to design test cases, the test suite template, the configuration steps and the results/reports. In this blog, I would like…
Before we get into the details of how to pick the end to end scenarios for automation let us see the need for designing end to end scenarios for automation. Most of the manual testing is done to test individual functionality thoroughly; we use many test techniques like BVA (Boundary…
In continuation to my previous blog, this blog details the reports and logs generated after test runs. Test Execution results and reports are very vital and important artifacts of the test deliverables. The key feature of the framework is its detailed execution logs, test results (tracked back in excel source…
We discussed about the test design for Web Services and reviewed a reusable test suite template for designing tests for Web Services in blog #2, let us see how to configure the re-usable framework solution and running the tests in this blog.
To start with, we should create a copy…
In continuation to my previous blog How to test Web Services? in which we discussed about the re-usable test automation framework for testing web services using Soap UI Pro tool, the emphasis in this blog will be about designing test cases for validating web services.
At a very high level it…
Many of us face challenge to test Web Services without a test harness or use a tool primarily just to send and receive request but test setup and validations are all performed manually. The first techniques makes testing teams heavily dependent on development teams to develop test harness and second…
I was talking to a person who has just started on an Agile Scrum project about how things are going. And we came to the topic of daily stand-up meeting. He said what they do in daily stand-up meeting is answer three questions. And they answer these three questions to…
Agile Project delivery is executed by a self-managed cross-functional team without anybody assigning and monitoring work to the finish line. It also requires extremely close collaboration between the team and the Product Owner (PO) on a regular basis instead of at the end of a “phase” or the project. A…
