1. Automating with Open Source Testing Tools Corey McGarrahan rSmart 01-July-08

2. Agenda Getting from Here to There Test Procedures Criteria for Tool Selection Tools Discussed And the winner is… The Next Step

3. Where We Want to Be No Manual Test Scripts No Testing Tool Totally dependent on Sakai Scripts Where We Were Acceptance tests for all tools Regression Suite Automated the Test Suites

4. Manual Test Procedures Writing Test procedures Procedures vs. Scripts Hire Testers Automate Procedures

5. Test Script Resource s 1: Add Item Test IDTest ObjectivePass/FailNotes 1.1Add an empty folder 1.1.1Make folder publicly available 1.1.2 Restrict folder access to site participants 1.1.3 Add more than one folder at one time 1.1.4 Add a folder with spaces in the name

6. Test Procedure Step IDActionExpected Result 1.  Select the Announcements tool o The Announcements page is displayed 2.  Select the Add link o The Add Announcement page is displayed with the following options: o Announcement Title o Body o Access o Availability o Attachments o Email Notification 3.  Create an Announcement with the following information:  Title: This is a Test  Body: Lorem ipsum …  Access: No change  Availability: No Change  Attachments: None  Email Notification: No change  Select the Add Announcement button o The Announcements page is displayed showing the This is a Test announcement.

7. Criteria Functional Test tool Open Source Collaborative in nature Easy to use, easy to learn Ability to record and playback Manual scripting capabilities Command Line functionality Maintenance of Scripts User Community

8. Tools JMeter Push To Test –TestGen4Web Selenium –IDE, Remote Control, Core, Grid

9. Apache JMeter Apache JMeter may be used to test performance both on static and dynamic resources. It can be used to simulate a heavy load on a server, network or object to test its strength or to analyze overall performance under different load types. You can use it to make a graphical analysis of performance or to test your server/script/object behavior under heavy concurrent load.

10. Scorecard Ease of use - NO Record and Playback - YES Manual scripting – YES Command Line – YES Script Maintenance - NO User Community - Established

11. Push To Test w/ TestGen4Web PushToTest TestMaker is a functional, end-to-end testing platform that validates the service code from interface to database and back. PushToTest is the open-source platform for software developers, QA groups, and IT management to test, optimize, monitor, and govern information systems. TestGen4Web is a Navigation recorder, and playback tool. It records the user action on the page, form fills, etc, and can save the recording to a file and replay it back for you on demand. Combined with translators, which can convert this recording to automated command line test tools, you can generate HTTPUnit, PHP-SimpleTest scripts.
