Test automation involves using software tools to manage and streamline key tasks involved in test execution, control, and reporting. Using test automation, leading software developers are finding more bugs earlier, when they're easier and less expensive to fix. Test automation makes it possible for development teams to avoid expensive mistakes in both testing and programming, and to deliver higher quality software far more rapidly. For these reasons, many organizations are seeking to automate testing, but doing so successfully is not easy.   In this book, over forty pioneering implementers share their experiences and best practices in twenty-eight case studies. Drawing on their insights, you can avoid the pitfalls associated with test automation, and achieve powerful results on every metric you care about: quality, cost, time to market, usability, and value.   Authors Dorothy Graham and Mark Fewster wrote the field's seminal text, Software Test Automation, the book that has guided thousands of organizations towards successful test automation. 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. The book fully addresses both management and technical issues, presenting both failures and successes, brilliant ideas and disastrous missteps and, above all, offering specific lessons you can use. Coverage includes An agile team's test automation journey: the first year Implementing continuous regression testing in production Improving communication, scoping automation, leveraging standards, and keeping things simple Developing automation frameworks for real-time mission-critical systems Using Model-Based Testing (MBT) to rapidly generate new tests when applications change Automating large systems built by hundreds of developers and testers Choosing the right tools for your projects and environment Using small, simple "point solutions" and disposable scripts to quickly drive significant value Accelerating and improving portability testing Using automated random test execution Recognizing when to ignore your consultant Standardizing test automation across multiple teams Experiences of Test Automation will be invaluable to everyone considering, implementing, or using test automation: system, software, and user acceptance testers; analysts, developers, test managers, and QA professionals alike.
