Software test automation has moved beyond a luxury to become a
necessity. Applications and systems have grown ever larger and more
complex, and manual testing simply cannot keep up. As technology
changes, and more organizations move into agile development,
testing must adapt-and quickly. Test automation is essential, but
poor automation is wasteful-how do you know where your efforts will
take you? Authors Dorothy Graham and Mark Fewster wrote the field's
seminal text, Software Test Automation, which has guided many
organizations toward success. Now, in Experiences of Test
Automation, they reveal test automation at work in a wide spectrum
of organizations and projects, from complex government systems to
medical devices, SAP business process development to Android mobile
apps and cloud migrations. This book addresses both management and
technical issues, describing failures and successes, brilliant
ideas and disastrous decisions and, above all, offers specific
lessons you can use. Coverage includes Test automation in agile
development How management support can make or break successful
automation The importance of a good testware architecture and
abstraction levels Measuring benefits and Return on Investment
(ROI) Management issues, including skills, planning, scope, and
expectations Model-Based Testing (MBT), monkey testing, and
exploratory test automation The importance of standards,
communication, documentation, and flexibility in enterprise-wide
automation Automating support activities Which tests to automate,
and what not to automate Hidden costs of automation: maintenance
and failure analysis The right objectives for test automation: why
"finding bugs" may not be a good objective Highlights, consisting
of lessons learned, good points, and helpful tips Experiences of
Test Automation will be invaluable to everyone considering,
implementing, using, or managing test automation. Testers,
analysts, developers, automators and automation architects, test
managers, project managers, QA professionals, and technical
directors will all benefit from reading this book.
