Are there any great scripted tests? Rob Sabourin shares dozens of examples of test scripts from software development projects. In this talk you will be exposed to the good, the bad, and the ugly side of test scripting. You will see some test scripts which have helped to drive profitable businesses, and other test scripts which have almost brought about corporate ruin. Rob explores the many context drivers behind testing, highlighting when and how they can help you focus on what matters. You will see many types of test scripts: smoke tests, FAST tests, business facing regression tests, structural regression tests, system integration tests, data driven tests, keyword driven tests, acceptance tests, requirement examples, unit tests and various Load tests. Learn how and why test scripting can influence project outcomes and leave with ideas on developing better test scripts.
