The Road to greater Automation And better Testing

Automation:

• Is often only basic happy path test

• Requires extensive manual effort to keep up with changes to requirements

• Doesn’t have the correct test data to be effective

Automation needs to:

• Be linked to better test case design i.e. the minimum set of test cases to cover the maximum functionality

• Be updated within a few minutes of a change to a requirement

• Be linked to matching sets of test data

Tools:

• Agile Designer Perfect sets of Test Case

• Agile Designer-TMX UFT, Rational Functional Tester, Microsoft Test UI, TestPartner, Auto IT etc

• Javelin Test Automation and Workflow

• Datamaker Perfect sets of Test Data

Continuous Development

Continuous Development

• Continuous Integration

• Iterative Development

• Dev Ops

• Is mostly Ops

• It starts when development and testing are complete

• It should start when the user has an idea!

• It needs a much higher degree of automation

What is Testing Coverage?

The Business Thinks it’s:

• Code Covered

• Number of Test Covered – Tests Run

• Percentage of use cases

• All Paired Combinations

It is actually:

• Designing Sufficient Tests To VERIFY That The Design And Code Correctly Implement The Requirements

• Did you get the right answer for the right reason - Two or more defects may sometimes cancel each other out - Observability

Building Test Cases from Requirements (Manual or Automation)

Baseline Agile Designer

Test Cases Created 14 17

Time Taken 5 hours 2 hours

Test Coverage - % 16% 100%

• Agile Designer was also able to shrink 326 possible test cases down to just 17, retaining 100% coverage

• Better test case design requires a radical shift in the testing industry

Requirements -> Use Cases -> Manual Test Cases -> Test Data

Agile Designer Automation – Step by Step

1. Import your Existing Test Cases or Create a Process Flow from your Requirement

2. Identify Basic UI, File, Database or Service Actions on the pallet – these are the automation building blocks

3. Attach these to the Process Flow

4. Attach any Test Data Requirements to the decision logic

5. Create the perfect set of test cases – maximum coverage

6. Export to TMX or Javelin

7. Execute the automation scripts

8. If a change to the requirement occurs adjust the Process Flow and repeat 5, 6 and 7

• Create clear, unambiguous, visual requirements to reduce defect creation by as much as 95%

• Quickly and simply introduce agile processes into your existing Waterfall Lifecycles

• Accurately estimate the cost of new software development and changes to existing systems

• Provide a systematic way of enforcing fixed-priced SLAs with outsource partners

• De-duplicate existing test cases to reduce the cost and length of test cycles by more than 30%

• Import existing business process workflows and automatically build the perfect set of test cases

• Generate Automation scripts for all major Automation Engines

• Link to Agile Data™ to find and make the correct test data at any point within your SDLC

• Drive Continuous Integration and Development frameworks

What can Agile Designer™ do for me?
