Self healing test automation with Healenium and Minimization of regression su...Dmitriy Gumeniuk
The document discusses two tools: Healenium and Drill4J. Healenium is a self-healing automation tool that uses machine learning algorithms to dynamically update locators when web pages change, reducing test failures. It works by comparing DOM trees to generate new locators. Drill4J maps test cases to code modules to help identify gaps in test coverage and code modified by a given test case.
This session aims to shed some light on an emerging test automation tool, Cypress. Cypress resolves many of the test automation problems that a QA or a dev may face in UI Web Automation testing. And after a walkthrough, we will compare cypress with Selenium as well.

1. Microservices architecture breaks down applications into small, independent services that focus on specific business capabilities. This allows services to be developed, deployed and scaled independently.
2. The key characteristics of microservices include being organized around business capabilities, independently deployable, using lightweight protocols and decentralized governance.
3. Microservices provide benefits like scalability, testability and flexibility to change technologies. However, they also add complexity and require new skills around distributed systems.
The document discusses quality assurance (QA) metrics in agile development. It begins by defining quality for both products and processes, noting that QA influence increases as development moves from requirements to validation. It then covers the types of metrics that can be used as a foundation for measuring product quality, including quantitative, qualitative, absolute, relative, and derivative metrics. Finally, it provides examples of QA metrics that can be used for daily monitoring of quality, as well as metrics that can be included in regular quality reports for sprints and releases.
This document provides an overview of diabetes mellitus (DM), including the three main types (Type 1, Type 2, and gestational diabetes), signs and symptoms, complications, pathophysiology, oral manifestations, dental management considerations, emergency management, diagnosis, and treatment. DM is caused by either the pancreas not producing enough insulin or cells not responding properly to insulin, resulting in high blood sugar levels. The document compares and contrasts the characteristics of Type 1 and Type 2 DM.

An Introduction To Automated API TestingSauce Labs
As more and more apps are being assembled from a rapidly expanding array of microservices, APIs are the key to accessing these new architectures. That new feature you’re working on will often rely on upstream services that can only be accessed via APIs - so to test the functionality of the new component you’ll need to simulate those services.
While APIs are the backbone of the websites and apps we rely on today, automated testing of them is only starting to grow. Join Patrick Poulin, CEO of API Fortress, as he provides an introduction to API testing, the best ways to test your own APIs using popular tools available today, and demonstrates the orchestration of API tests and Sauce Labs tests as part of a Jenkins build process.
Key takeaways:
-Clearly understand what API testing means.
-Learn about best practices.
-See demonstrations of popular testing tools.
-See API and UI/UX testing implemented as part of a Jenkins build.
Postman is an API development tool that allows users to design, manage, run, test, document, and share APIs. It provides features like request building, documentation, environments, test automation, and collaboration. Alternatives include Paw, Insomnia, command line tools like cURL, and services from Apigee and Apiary. The document recommends using any tool that helps share APIs, especially for complex projects and team collaboration.
POST/CON 2019 Workshop: Testing, Automated Testing, and Reporting APIs with P...Postman
This document provides an agenda and overview for a workshop on testing, automation, and reporting with Postman. The workshop will cover testing concepts and practical exercises, advanced testing techniques like dynamic variables and Chai assertions, automation with the Collection Runner and Newman, and creating reports. Speakers Trent McCann and Danny Dainton will present on prerequisites, testing modules, breaks, automation, and workshop wrap-up.
Appium is an open-source tool for automating native, mobile web, and hybrid applications on iOS mobile, Android mobile, and Windows desktop platforms. Native apps are those written using iOS, Android, or Windows SDKs. Mobile web apps are web apps accessed using a mobile browser (Appium supports Safari on iOS and Chrome or the built-in 'Browser' app on Android). Hybrid apps have a wrapper around a "webview" -- a native control that enables interaction with web content. Projects like Apache Cordova or Phonegap make it easy to build apps using web technologies that are then bundled into a native wrapper, creating a hybrid app.
Importantly, Appium is "cross-platform": it allows you to write tests against multiple platforms (iOS, Android, Windows), using the same API. This enables code reuse between iOS, Android, and Windows testsuites.
This document provides an overview of API testing tools and methods. It defines APIs and REST, describes how API testing works, lists common API testing tools like Postman, and outlines different types of API tests including functionality, reliability, load, and security testing. Examples are given of the GET, POST, PUT, and DELETE HTTP methods along with response status codes. A live demo of an API is presented at the end.
The document discusses challenges in mobile automation testing and provides an overview of Appium as a tool for mobile test automation. It covers Appium architecture, requirements, capabilities, and tips for scaling mobile tests. Advanced Appium actions like horizontal and vertical swiping and chained locators are mentioned. The document also discusses visual testing, accessibility testing, and performance testing for mobile apps using Appium.
The document provides an overview of API testing, including definitions of APIs and API testing, descriptions of common API methods like GET, POST, PUT, and DELETE, examples of API requests and responses, and advantages and challenges of API testing. It discusses basics like the API workflow, REST APIs, HTTP response codes, and types of API tests.
This document discusses testing RESTful web services using REST Assured. It provides an overview of REST and HTTP methods like GET, POST, PUT, DELETE. It explains why API automation is required for early defect detection, contract validation, stopping builds on failure. REST Assured allows testing and validating REST services in Java and integrates with frameworks like JUnit and TestNG. It provides methods to format HTTP requests, send requests, validate status codes and response data. REST Assured also handles authentication mechanisms. The document provides instructions on adding the REST Assured Maven dependency and writing tests, including an example of a GET request.
Automation API testing becoming a crucial part of most of the project. This whitepaper provides an insight into how API automation with REST Assured is certainly the way forward in API testing.

Does your functional automation really add value?Anand Bagmar
We all know that automation is one of the key enablers for those on the CI-CD journey.
Most teams are:
• implementing automation
• talking about its benefits
• up-skilling themselves
• talking about tooling
• etc.
In my experience, unfortunately most of the functional automation that is built is:
• not optimal
• not fit-for-purpose
• does not run fast enough
• gives inconsistent feedback, hence unreliable
Hence, for the amount of effort invested in implementing automation, are you really getting the value from this activity?
In this talk, we will discuss these challenges and why it would lead to poor ROI of automation. More importantly, we will discuss the following techniques to make automation valuable:
• know the objective for the automation framework
• establish criteria for tests to be automated
• design your framework with proper abstraction layers
• develop using appropriate design patterns

Visual Validation - The missing tip of the automation pyramid @AgileIndia2020Anand Bagmar
https://confengine.com/agile-india-2020/proposal/11065/visual-validation-the-missing-tip-of-the-automation-pyramid
The top of the pyramid is our UI / end-2-end functional tests - which simulate end-user behavior and interactions with the product-under test.
While Automation helps validate functionality of your product, aspects of UX validations can only be seen and captured by the human eye and is hence mostly a manual activity. This is an area where AI & ML can truly help.
With everyone wanting to be Agile, make quick releases, the look & feel / UX validation, which is a slow, and error-prone activity, quickly becomes a huge bottleneck. In addition, with any UX related issues propping up cause huge brand-value and revenue loss, may lead to social-trolling and worse - dilute your user-base.
In this session, using numerous examples, we will explore:
Why Automated Visual Validation is essential to be part of your Test Strategy
Potential solutions / options for Automated Visual Testing, with pros & cons of each
How an AI-powered tool, Applitools Eyes, can solve this problem.
Streamlining End-to-End Testing Automation with Azure DevOps Build & Release Pipelines
Automating end-to-end (e2e) test for Android and iOS native apps, and web apps, within Azure build and release pipelines, poses several challenges. This session dives into the key challenges and the repeatable solutions implemented across multiple teams at a leading Indian telecom disruptor, renowned for its affordable 4G/5G services, digital platforms, and broadband connectivity.
Challenge #1. Ensuring Test Environment Consistency: Establishing a standardized test execution environment across hundreds of Azure DevOps agents is crucial for achieving dependable testing results. This uniformity must seamlessly span from Build pipelines to various stages of the Release pipeline.
Challenge #2. Coordinated Test Execution Across Environments: Executing distinct subsets of tests using the same automation framework across diverse environments, such as the build pipeline and specific stages of the Release Pipeline, demands flexible and cohesive approaches.
Challenge #3. Testing on Linux-based Azure DevOps Agents: Conducting tests, particularly for web and native apps, on Azure DevOps Linux agents lacking browser or device connectivity presents specific challenges in attaining thorough testing coverage.
This session delves into how these challenges were addressed through:
1. Automate the setup of essential dependencies to ensure a consistent testing environment.
2. Create standardized templates for executing API tests, API workflow tests, and end-to-end tests in the Build pipeline, streamlining the testing process.
3. Implement task groups in Release pipeline stages to facilitate the execution of tests, ensuring consistency and efficiency across deployment phases.
4. Deploy browsers within Docker containers for web application testing, enhancing portability and scalability of testing environments.
5. Leverage diverse device farms dedicated to Android, iOS, and browser testing to cover a wide range of platforms and devices.
6. Integrate AI technology, such as Applitools Visual AI and Ultrafast Grid, to automate test execution and validation, improving accuracy and efficiency.
7. Utilize AI/ML-powered central test automation reporting server through platforms like reportportal.io, providing consolidated and real-time insights into test performance and issues.
These solutions not only facilitate comprehensive testing across platforms but also promote the principles of shift-left testing, enabling early feedback, implementing quality gates, and ensuring repeatability. By adopting these techniques, teams can effectively automate and execute tests, accelerating software delivery while upholding high-quality standards across Android, iOS, and web applications.
Slides from my talk on how to Eradicate Flaky Tests from AppiumConf 2021

Change Tyres In A Moving Car - Make Functional Test Automation Effective KeynoteAnand Bagmar
https://confengine.com/conferences/selenium-conf-2022/proposal/17141/changing-tyres-in-a-moving-car-making-functional-test-automation-effective
In my experience, I have seen teams struggle with more than one, and in many cases, all of the above statements.
On retrospection, I have realized, that most of these challenges are because of a combination of the following issues:
Lack of holistic vision, understanding, skills, and capabilities for taking on this seemingly easy activity of functional test automation
Lack of time for design, implementation, and maintenance of the automated test code
In this session, I will share, with examples, the features & capabilities that are not used right in Test Automation implementation resulting in you answering “NO” to the above statements. These are anti-patterns of functional automation implementation and have a negative impact on the quality of feedback from your automated tests.
More importantly, I will share approaches and solutions of how you can avoid these anti-patterns and evolve to answer “YES” to each of the above statements.
It is easy to measure code coverage when running unit tests.
However, very frequently the following questions come up:
- How can we measure API test coverage and e2e / UI test coverage?
- Does e2e / UI test coverage add value?
- If not, what other data can we look at to know if the e2e tests have good coverage?
This session is about understanding the above questions, and finding solutions for the same.
Everyone wants to make quick releases, but the look-and-feel UX validation is a manual, slow, and error-prone activity. Any UX-related issues propping up cause huge brand-value and revenue loss, may lead to social-trolling, and, even worse, dilute your user base. This is an area where AI & ML can help. In this hands-on workshop, using examples, we will explore: the importance of automated visual validation how an AI-powered tool, Applitools Visual AI, can solve this problem. Integrate Applitools Visual AI in your Selenium-Java automation and learn by practice: The different AI algorithms various Applitools capabilities and features scale your automation using the Applitools Ultrafast Grid.
Visual Validation - The missing tip of the automation pyramid @GoT2022Anand Bagmar
The document discusses visual validation testing as a missing piece of the automation testing pyramid. Visual testing is important but challenging as it is typically done manually, which is tedious, error-prone, and difficult to scale. Automating visual testing can help by taking screenshots of expected user interfaces and comparing them to actual screenshots. However, automating also poses challenges around false positives/negatives, maintaining baselines, and accounting for product changes. The document promotes using artificial intelligence in visual test automation to help address these challenges and advocates for including visual testing in an organization's overall quality and automation strategy.
Unlocking the Power of ChatGPT and AI in Testing - NextSteps, presented by Ap...Applitools
The document discusses AI tools for software testing such as ChatGPT, Github Copilot, and Applitools Visual AI. It provides an overview of each tool and how they can help with testing tasks like test automation, debugging, and handling dynamic content. The document also covers potential challenges with AI like data privacy issues and tools having superficial knowledge. It emphasizes that AI should be used as an assistance to humans rather than replacing them and that finding the right balance and application of tools is important.
Build the Right Regression Suite with Behavior-Driven TestingTechWell
Manual functional testing is a slow, tedious, and error prone process. As we continue to incrementally build software, the corresponding regression test suite continues to grow. Rarely is time allotted to consolidate and keep these test cases in sync with the product under development. If these test cases are used as the basis for automation, the resulting suite is composed of very granular tests that are often quite brittle in nature. Using a case study, Anand Bagmar describes how behavior-driven testing (BDT) can be applied to identify the right type of test cases for manual and automated regression testing. Learn how the BDT technique can be applied in your context and domain, regardless of the tools and technologies used in your project and organization.

The document provides instructions on getting started with teswiz and links to its GitHub page.
Visual Validation - The Missing Tip of the Automation PyramidAnand Bagmar
The Test Automation Pyramid is not a new concept. The top of the pyramid is our UI / end-2-end functional tests - which should cover the breadth of the product.
What the functional tests cannot capture though, is the aspects of UX validations that can only be seen and in some cases, captured by the human eye. This is where the new buzzwords of AI & ML can truly help.
In this session, we will explore why Visual Validation is an important cog in the wheel of Test Automation and also different tools and techniques that can help achieve this. We will also see a demo of Applitools Eyes - and how it can be a good option to close this gap in automation!
This document discusses client-side performance testing. It describes measuring client-side performance through synthetic monitoring tools like WebPageTest.org, SiteSpeed.io and ShowSlow which test page load speeds, and real user monitoring through Akamai RUM, Monitis RUM and Google Analytics. WebPageTest.org is demonstrated in more detail, showing how to use it to test pages and understand key metrics like time to first byte, time to start render and full page loaded time. Private instances and automation of WebPageTest is also covered. YSlow and Google PageSpeed are also mentioned as alternatives for measuring client performance.
Slides from the workshop I conducted on "Client-side Performance Testing".
Abstract of the workshop:
In this workshop, we will see the different dimensions of Performance Testing and Performance Engineering, and focus on Client-side Performance Testing.
Before we get to doing some Client-side Performance Testing activities, we will first understand how to look at client-side performance, and putting that in the context of the product under test. We will see, using a case study, the impact of caching on performance, the good & the bad! We will then experiment with some tools like WebPageTest and Page Speed to understand how to measure client-side performance.
Lastly - just understanding the performance of the product is not sufficient. We will look at how to automate the testing for this activity - using WebPageTest (private instance setup), and experiment with yslow - as a low-cost, programatic alternative to WebPageTest.
