Essentials of Manual Testing

  • Manual testing is fundamental before automation.
  • User Experience testing is qualitative and manual.
  • Manual testing is easy, inexpensive, and flexible.
  • Preferred for systems undergoing continuous changes.
  • Maintenance of manual systems is easier than automation.
  • Other testing methods complement but don’t replace manual testing.

Manual Software Testing Services

  • It is the most basic level of testing. Any system needs to be manually tested before being automated.
  • Tests like User Experience testing which are qualitative cannot be automated.
  • Manual testing is easy, inexpensive and simple to plan and execute.
  • Manual testing is preferred often whenever a system undergoes continuous changes.
  • Maintenance of manual systems is much easier compared to automation systems.
  • Every other testing method can only complement the manual method of testing, and can’t replace it.

Agile Quality Assurance Automation for Software Testing

How?

Testing is done in sprints. The time duration of each sprint is decided by the scrum master or the test manager as per the project needs.

What?

In each sprint, a certain module or set of modules are taken for testing by the testing team, executed and defects are fixed by the Dev team.

Why?

Testing is done in sprints. The time duration of each sprint is decided by the scrum master or the test manager as per the project needs.

Quality Assurance Services in San Diego

The waterfall method of testing has often lead to major losses to organizations mainly because it is inflexible, the scope of testing is limited and it does not make the best use of the available time among members. In this context, the Agile methodology of software testing does everything that waterfall method does, and more. The Agile method ensures that all the software processes are reversible and iterative.

What is Agile Quality Assurance Automation Process?

  • Divide a project into small independent modules.
  • Classify requirements for each and develop each module.
  • Once development of a module is done, start developing the next independent module while the first is tested by testing team.
  • Repeat Steps 1 to 3 till all the modules of the project are developed.
  • Whenever any issues arise, immediately go back to Step 2 or 3 and change the requirements or re-develop the module and execute step 3.

Agile Software Development Testing Process

  • Testing team checks the requirements framed by the business team.
  • Requests for any logical clarifications required.
  • Done only before the sprint begins.

Note
Steps 1 to 5 are iteratively repeated for each sprint and are individually signed off.At the end, all the processes are cumulatively signed off, for the entire project.

  • Testing team decides the test scenarios and cases that are to be executed during the sprint.
  • Done before or after the commencement of a sprint.

Note
Steps 1 to 5 are iteratively repeated for each sprint and are individually signed off.At the end, all the processes are cumulatively signed off, for the entire project.

  • Test Cases are reviewed internally by the test manager.
  • Also reviewed externally by Dev/Business team.
  • Test cases are actually executed only after both reviews are passed.

Note
Steps 1 to 5 are iteratively repeated for each sprint and are individually signed off.At the end, all the processes are cumulatively signed off, for the entire project.

  • The approved test scripts are executed.
  • Execution results are documented and reported on a periodic basis.
  • Test cases that are failed are mapped to defects using any appropriate defect tracking tool.
  • When the defects are fixed, the testing team is expected to retest and close those issues that are fixed.

Note
Steps 1 to 5 are iteratively repeated for each sprint and are individually signed off.At the end, all the processes are cumulatively signed off, for the entire project.

  • The testing is deemed as completed when the defects are resolved and the testing team provides the sign off for the module in focus.

Note
Steps 1 to 5 are iteratively repeated for each sprint and are individually signed off.At the end, all the processes are cumulatively signed off, for the entire project.

Why Automate?

Every software development group tests its products, yet delivered software always has defects. Test engineers strive to catch them before the product is released but they always creep in and they often reappear, even with the best manual testing processes. Automated software testing is the best way to increase the effectiveness, efficiency, and coverage of your software testing.

Automation Process Flow

Lifecycle of Automation Process Followed in TSU

Plan Update the Code

Periodically monitor the changes to the source code and update the code to be consistent with the code.

01

Automate Writing Automation Scripts

Using automation tools such as Selenium and Appium, write automation scripts for the identified modules and functionalities.

02

Monitor Running and Monitoring Logs

The automated scripts are to be run periodically and their logs need to be monitored for any issues detected. Issues need to be logged when there is a deviation from the expected result

03

Maintain Update the Code

Periodically monitor the changes to the source code and update the code to be consistent with the code.

Automation

Automating the most popular new social networking site of 2014 

Crunched Timeline

TSU was launched to the public on Dec 2014 and we had been given the opportunity to automate only after the website had gone live and had only a few months’ time to complete automation of the entire

Defect and Status Reporting

The team used JIRA to log the defects using Selenium automation tool in Ruby Language and status was reported on a daily and consolidated weekly reports.

Structured Testing

The TSU QA team took only three months to automate the complete functionality of the site and this includes writing some 300 plus test scripts covered over 6700 lines of cod

SauceLabs Integration

Once completely optimized the code was uploaded to SauceLabs from where the clients can run the scripts whenever necessary and obtain the pass/fail status from the test logs.

Automation Tools Used

  • Selenium is a web testing tool which uses JavaScript and iframes to embed the test automation engine into the browser.
  • Supports many programming languages Java, Ruby, C# and Python.
  • It allows the same test scripts to be used to test multiple browsers on multiple platforms.
  • Since it is an , there are no Licensing costs associated with it.
