§ MUST HAVE & first step in automation testing chain

§ Best practices:§ Naming convention§ Batch

12

§ Best practices§ Grouping§ Isolation§ Keep it simple

§ Issues: Test data§ Pre-defined data§ Generated data

13

§ Best practices§ Test scripts under source control

§ Solution:§ Octopus deployment

§ Website: IIS§ Clients as run-once Windows service à invoke Jmeter

§ Scalable clients with Hyper-V

§ Trigger:§ After integration test§ Deployment

§ Best practices:§ Keep it simple§ Not (too) complex test case§ Naming convention

§ Solution:§ Selenium test code§ Integrate to build pipeline

16

§ Automated test data / code / plan.. generation?

§ Indication: § When project’s structure is being stable for some sprints§ Modules’ structures look similar § Test code structures look similar

§ But please careful§ We need manual works to maintain the automated works§ Today it reduces work but tomorrow…

17

Our objectives

§ Transparent: Team can real-time know project status

§ Improvement: Team can improve mindset and (testing, coding) skills

§ Fewer manual works, fewer people, fewer breaks…by smarter way J

19

§ Cost reduction, ROI increase

§ No longer or not frequently maintain needs

§ (Too) love UI or system tests

§ Only QA responsibility for automation test

Need

• objectives• team

Implement

• as soon as possible

• more unit test, less UI test

• team

Continuous

• refactor• execute

Don’t

• need to test everything

• worry to disable tests SOMETIMES

Remember

• You have MANUALworks for AUTOMATEDworks

• Trade-off

21

Automation test is not a tool that let us work from Monday to Thursday and let the machine do repeatable works in Friday. It’s a method to let us work from Monday to Friday safety by knowing our issues and preventing bugs everyday.

We have to do the manual works for automated test, includes the testing for it. So more automated testing could be done, more manual work need to be done.

The total cost usually doesn’t change. But whenever we want to execute large set of test cases in a short time, we can – that we normally cannot do by using people.
