Exploding Functional/UI Testing Myths
If you're skeptical about functional/UI testing of Eclipse-based products – you should attend this talk. During the talk we'll show real-life applications developed and used by worldwide leading telecom companies, which are based on a wide set of Eclipse technologies. We will demo hundreds of tests covering Eclipse Platform, JDT, GEF, and GMF-based functionality running on various platforms as is, independent of platform windowing system, workbench sizes, order and/or subset of tests to be executed, and initial state of the system under test, which should explode a myth about UI tests being fragile.
During the talk we will show how your test plans can be automated and maintained by non-technically skilled persons, producing and/or maintaining up to hundred of testing scenarios per day; how test engineers can write complex assertions, which are not limited to UI but cover wide set of functionality of Eclipse project; and for TDD/BDD fans we will show how testing scenarios can be written with external DSL before coding the functionality. Note: this demo is strictly reflecting real-life software, and all the numbers (metrics) we'll reveal are based on real-life experience. No synthetic "Hello, World" applications will be allowed in the showroom. This is a highly vitalizing demo for people who develop Eclipse-based products, and does not affect others – you will not hear "Swing", "AWT", or "browser" words during the talk.
Warning: If you have negative experience automating UI testing of Eclipse-based software in your company, you may feel disconnected from reality at some points during the demo. In case of disconnection please take a deep breath, relax, and remember that no special effects has been used during the demo.
