This 2-day Automated Software Testing training course provides an opportunity to come to grips with test automation by combining a discussion of automation concepts with practical demonstrations of test automation tools.
The demonstrations in this course are all based on fully featured, open source, and “freeware” tools. Participants are able to easily acquire and experiment with the tools after the course. This ensures that when the time comes to evaluate and select a proprietary tool, participants will be well prepared with an in-depth understanding of the role of automation tools, as well as their inherent strengths and weaknesses.
Many organisations would like to automate some or all of their software testing tasks. However, uncertainty about where to start and the high cost of proprietary testing tools can often hold them back. This course will begin to provide some of the answers.
Course outcomes include:
- an understanding of the strengths and weaknesses of test automation
- encouragement to develop a strategy prior to acquiring a test
- automation tool
- preparation for the evaluation and selection of test automation tools
- a basis for ongoing experimentation and learning following the course.
