Why automated tests?


•Too expensive

•Too much work to create

•Not enough staff to maintain

•Never know the coverage level

•No one but developers knows what is being tested

We don’t need Automated Tests!

Overview

•Set the stage

•Introduce Cucumber

•Good features

•Bad features

•???

•Profit!

Assumptions

•Startup or small business

•Understaffed

•Inadequate test coverage

•Need to defend existence of having automated tests to business.

Natural Language@searchFeature: Searching For Hello World, and some more overview of the feature that we are trying to test

@google Scenario: User Searches for Hello World on Google.com Given I'm on Google's Home Page And I search for Hello World

Then I should see Wikipedia's Hello World article as 1st result

@bing Scenario: User Searches for Hello World on Bing.com Given I'm on Bing's Home Page And I search for Hello World

Then I should see car videos as first result

Step DefinitionsGiven /Î'm on Google's Home Page$/ do @selenium.open "www.google.com"end

Given /Î'm on Bing's Home Page$/ do @selenium.open "www.bing.com"end

When /Î search for Hello World$/ do @selenium.type "q", "Hello World"end

•Too expensive





Who should be writing tests?


•Developers

•Unit, Integration, Functional


•Developers


•QAs

•Functional, End-To-End


•Developers


•QAs

•Functional, End-To-End

•Everyone else

•At least the feature definitions


•Too expensive

Good Features•Tags

•Encourages BDD/TDD

•Supports multiple test drivers

•Selenium 1 and Selenium 2 support

•Multilingual

• i18n support

•Readable test results

Encourages BDD/TDD

•Write feature description first

•Run test see it fail

•Create one step definition at the time

•Write functionality for the step

•Run test see it pass

First run

Write Step Definitions

Write More Step Definitions

Even More Step Definitions

Multiple Test Drivers

Selenium 1 supportBefore do |scenario| @selenium = Selenium::Client::Driver.new( :host => "localhost", :port => 4444, :browser => “firefox”, :url => “www.google.com”)end

Selenium 1 Tip

Use Hpricot Or Nokogiri!!!

page = Hpricot(@selenium.get_html_source)

Selenium 2 support

Selenium 2 support

•Capybara + Selenium = Love

•Uses Nokogiri

•Uses XPath outside of browser

i18nФункционал: Сложение чисел Чтобы не складывать в уме Все, у кого с этим туго Хотят автоматическое сложение целых чисел

Сценарий: Сложение двух целых чисел Допустим я ввожу число 50 И затем ввожу число 70 Если я нажимаю "+" То результатом должно быть число 120

i18n Chinese

功能 : 加法為了避免愚蠢的錯誤作為一個數學白痴我希望有人能告訴我兩個數相加的結果

場景大綱 : 將兩個數相加假設我已經在計算機上輸入 < 數值 _1> 而且我已經在計算機上輸入 < 數值 _2> 當我按下 < 按鈕 > 那麼螢幕上應該顯示 < 結果 >

Readable Test Results

Bad Features

•Regex step definitions

•Hard To find Step Definitions

•Slower

•Natural language parser

•Messy directory structure

Regex Step Definitions

•Good: Reuse Definitions

•Bad:

• Then /^(?:|I )should see "([^\"]*)"(?: within "([^\"]*)")?$/ do

Hard to find Step Definitions

Vim Rails

Bad Features

•Regex step definitions

•Hard To find Step Definitions

•Slower

•Natural language parser

•Messy directory structure

Conclusion

•Cucumber is a great tool to

•Describe Features

•Document Features

•Get the whole team involved

•However, it has downsides also

@dhhRSpec offends me aesthetically with no discernible benefit for its added complexity over test/unit.


Cucumber makes no sense to me unless you have clients reading the tests. Why would you build a test-specific parser for English?

The important thing is of course that we get people testing, so tools shouldn't matter too much....
