DESCRIPTION
Frank Cohen, CTO/Founder at Appvance, teaches developers and testers how to become more closely aligned with easily deployable and configurable tools such as Jenkins CI and performance testing platforms. Learn how to: * Merge Agile SDLC and Performance Testing * Speed-up test operations by configuring Jenkins for automatic build, deploy, and tests * Instantly identify functional and performance issues using Jenkins as a performance dashboard * Use effective choices in Jenkins deployment – in the cloud, hosted, or in your datacenterTRANSCRIPT

What We Will Talk About
•Agile Methodology Expects Build, Deploy, Test Automation
•A Continuous Integration Strategy
•Ajax and Mobile Testing Methodology
•Repurposing for Functional and Performance Testing
•Becoming A CI Architect
Agile Methodology in a Process
7-day Sprint
Highest Priority
Backlog of Changes,Improvements
• App does not run on iOS • Rendering problems• UX fails at 45 users • Overnight reports needed
Funding and Feedback
Sprint Review
Acceptance
✓ Unit Tests Pass✓ Functional Tests Pass✓ Usability Tests Pass✓ Perf Under Load Pass✓ Stress Tests Completed✓ Production Monitor In Place
Daily Work

Agile Without CI?
Why Do Continuous Integration?
•It’s free and easy
•Your Test Suites Take Longer Than “Overnight” To Run
•High Risk App Launch
•Software build/deploy/test plan of record (How do I?)
•Easy to go from functional to performance testing
•Keeps you productive, while long projects build/deploy/test
Why Avoid Continuous Integration
•You Work In A Small Shop
•Stakeholders Unable To Participate
•No One To Manage Projects on Jenkins
•One-shot project (build, launch, forget)
•Deploy/Test Requires Human Intervention
•Low Risk App Launches
Continuous DevOps
•Continuous Integration
• Dashboard To Testing
•Continuous Deploy
• Automatic app deployment
•Continuous Testing
• Regression on Commit
• Repurpose for Load Tests
Test CI Runtime

How Do I Get Jenkins?
•Run on Cloudbees (Fully Managed)
•Run on AWS, IBM Softlayer (Self Managed)
•Download and Run Internally (Self Managed)
•Then, Plug-in Test As A Service Platform
What Is The Measurement of Success
•Functional Testing Defines End User Experience Success
• Browser Compatibility, UX Latency, Configuration/Integration Problems
•Performance Testing Identifies Business Risk To Launch
• How Many People Are We Ready To Serve At Any Given Time
•Stress Testing Identifies The Experience As The App Fails
• International Bank App Showing Other User Details
Testing Measures Business Risk

A Testing Strategy for You
•Working With Today’s Apps, Pages, Tools • Serverless Architecture means pages that have state, workflow, communication
• Real time analytics and immediate fix - at the same time
• Extending tools to support new technology
•Beginning To End Testing •Scaling Up Your Team’s Efforts
• Higher Productivity
• Test Management
•Cost Effectiveness and Immediate Support
How Do I Get App Testing?
•Ajax App Testing
• Sahi, Selenium, WebDriver
• Unit Testing more difficult, easier to maintain
• JMeter does not work in Ajax
•Mobile App Testing
• Appium for iOS, Android
• Unit Testing of REST and SOAP services using soapUI, HAR, JMeter
• Others, very limited support and no repurposing to performance tests

Executing Appium Tests from Jenkins

Port $appiumport may be already in use. " exit 1 fi echo "[INFO] Appium started with pid: $appium_pid .

Why Treat Functional/Performance Tests Differently?
•Repurposing Benefits
• Single Test Scripts for All Testing
• Pivot Back and Forth Rapidly
• Natural for Continuous Integration and Automation
•Performance Test
• Run at Low, Medium, High Virtual User Levels
• Scalability Index Report Answers Risk Questions
TestScenario Repurposing
Correlation To Back End Load
Backend Correlation
Strategy for Mobile Test Runtime
•Run Test in Emulators (Mac and Android) 85%
•Run Test in Real Devices 10%
•Run Test with Real People 5%
We’re going to run the test between 1-2 pm, get as many real people on it then
Become A CI Architect
•Draw A Line From Business Risk To Your Integration Plan
How To Get Started
•Attend Scrum Meetings, Ask A Few Questions
•Ask The Business Manager for an App About Risks
•Ask the Developers Where The Test Coverage Is Thin
•Choose An Appropriate Test Script Authoring Tool
•Write or Record A Test
•Commit The Test to svn, CVS, other repository
•Plug-in To CI and Maintain
Contents of a CI Plan
•Identify the Parts
• Beginning-To-End of User Experience, including Data
• Units of App Function
•Success/Fail Criteria
• 50,000 User Transactions per 10 Minutes with less than 1% Errors
• Functional Test on IE 8, Firefox 16, iOS 5
•User Archetypes and Workflow
•Performance Under Load and Stress
