This article explains how to use Arquillian to test a web UI of the application you are building. The mission of the Arquillian project is to provide a simple test harness that abstracts away all container lifecycle and deployment from the test logic so developers can easily produce a broad range of integration tests for their enterprise Java applications. This article exercises the following tools: Arquillian, Arquillian Drone, ShrinkWrap Maven Resolver and Selenium.
Unit testing focuses on testing small pieces of code that a developer is writing. This article shows how to get started unit testing JavaScript as well as server-side code.
Testing continues to represent the single largest cost associated with the development of sophisticated, software intensive, military systems. A reduction in overall testing cost will save billions of dollars over the lifecycle of tactical software systems. Such savings can only be achieved if the concept of testing begins very early in the development process, improving synergy throughout the development and testing communities.
This article explores qooxdoo’s built-in facilities for automated UI testing. qooxdoo is a universal JavaScript framework that enables you to create applications for a wide range of platforms. With its object-oriented programming model you build rich, interactive applications (RIAs), native-like apps for mobile devices, light-weight traditional web applications or even applications to run outside the browser.
As a software testing consultant and musician, I meet a lot of skilled testers who do amazing work. Through experience and a lot of trial and error, they have developed skills they can’t easily explain. Unfortunately, with software testing, there aren’t as many obvious avenues for skill development as there are for musicians. Many software testers don’t realize that there are learnable exploratory testing skills they can develop to help them become even more valuable to software development teams.
This article discusses how to build a portfolio of scenarios for load testing automation. You have rarely only a single scenario to test, so you have to decide which scenarios to include in your test plans. Criticality, frequency, difficulty and verifiability are the four key factors that should be considered to determine the scenarios to automate.
Many developers think that testing Java EE applications is hard, inconvenient or too complex. This has not been true since the inception of Java EE 5 more than five years ago. This article explore how to do efficiently unit testing for Java EE applications.
