My Testing Thoughts

  TestProject already had a smart recorder that was capable of doing fantastic stuff we look for in any record and playback. It can easily generate source code from recorded tests, suggest useful add-ons, allow us to choose from various locator strategies, and view all available properties of any UI components, etc. But have you checked their new versatile and much powerful recorder? You should check it when you get the time and share your feedback. Here are the few enhancements I noticed: 1) Added support for iFrames. I am sure this will be helpful in testing apps that play with so many iFrames. 2) Self-healing feature for the stability of the locators: I have used other tools/frameworks like Canopy(F# library built on top of Selenium) and it wasn't that effective in terms of Self-healing feature but I must say that it works very effectively when I tried using TestProject recorder to record, edit and playback. Also, if a Self-Healing mechanism was used to recover from an error, it...

Wait for a certain condition(s) like eg. click, type, etc. to meet and then perform an action is required in almost every UI automation test case. And most of us break our head too much on playing with different dynamic (async) waits which are never-ending practice especially when you have a common framework for your m site as well as your desktop browsers. When I saw that TestProject announced something called Adaptive wait Capability, I tried it and it works wonder. So, if you are already using TestProject, give it a shot. Must say that Adaptive Wait = Smart wait here. Especially when we struggle too much due to different net speed/connections and device physical resources bottlenecks.
