Lessons Learned from Test Automation
Event Description
With test automation we never really stop learning. In this session Peter and David share their insights into implementing test automation in several different organizations - examining what has worked and just as importantly what has not. Topics covered will include:- Test automation strategies
- Avoiding common pitfalls
- Selecting the right tools - open source or commercial
- Structuring test automation within an existing test team
- Collaborating with developers
These ideas will help you introduce test automation into your organization, reinvigorate ailing test automation projects, and magnify the benefits of test automation. Although ideas cannot be discussed in great detail due to time restrictions, there will be enough information for you to understand and then apply.
