Agenda

• Achieving test automation in DevOps

• Building a business-tailored test automation framework

• Overcoming limitations of open source tools

• Case study: Creating 2000+ test cases in less than a month for a product development firm

• Demo: Zero-code test automation for non-testers using AccuRate ( test automation suite by RapidValue)


• I have to wait for infrastructure to be

available.

• I have to wait for software to be deployed.

• I wait for QA to give feedback.

• It always works on my machine.

• Why is the development environment different?

• Why are developers taking so long to release

the code?

• Why are there so many release cycles?

• Why are there so many issues in the

software?

• How soon can the developers release an

update to fix the issues reported by the

customer?

• I don’t get enough time for my test cycles.

• The regression cycles are always incomplete.

• There are so many different types of testing

that need to be done.

• What is IT doing?

• Why are my apps not ready yet?

Key Success Factors Driving any Software Lifecycle

• Defect-free software in each iteration

• Shorter release cycles

• Faster adoption to changes

• Continuous * (Integration, Delivery and Testing)

• Ability to run automation test cases for every

sprint/iteration

Iteration


Better collaboration, communication

and integration

Traditional siloed teams do not scale to meet the

demands of the enterprise

Enhance operational knowledge into

design phase

Reliability, performance and security aspect - provide a

way to test them

Enable continuous feedback

Test results to determine whether a build

can be promoted

Create high-quality releases through automation

Continuous integration, automated regression testing,

continuous delivery, automated security and

performance testing

Provide automated environments

Identical environments from Dev to Production

Building a Business-tailored

Test Automation Framework



Challenges in Test Automation to be Addressed by a Framework

Challenges

Keeping up with

technology changes

Dependency

on UI and maintenance

effort

Form factor

• Frequent technology changes in

mobile and web development.

• Need to upgrade test automation

tools to incorporate new

technologies.

• Limitations of open

source tools.

• Ever growing number

of target devices,

multiple browser

versions etc.

• Functional test automation

tools are dependent on

the front-end technologies

and UI.

• UI changes cause a ripple

effect in the automation

scripts.


Factors to Consider for Building a Test Automation Framework

Understand business, technology and ALM

context

Integrate appropriate tools

Create a list of open source tools that

support the business context

Identify common features and functionalities

Ensure reusability of scripts


Achieving Test Automation at Multiple Layers Requires Multiple Tools

Acceptance Test-BDD

Functional Test

Web Service/API Level Test

BENEFITS

• Reduce effort

• Reduce cost

• Improve productivity

• Increase test coverage

• Early detection of defects

Case Study



Achieved Continuous Quality by Creating 2000+ Test Cases in less than 30 Days One of the Largest Crane Sales- Rental Co in the US and the World's Largest Terex Crane Dealer.

Business Situation

• Lack of time for regression testing

• Longer release cycles

Business Benefits

• Reduced regression testing time from 12 hours to 3 hours for weekly sprint

• Enhanced quality and productivity
