HOW WE LEVERAGESELENIUM TODAY

Products that are tested with Selenium

Infra – lowest level working with the browser and locatorsObjects/Containers – represents a module in the application and the activities possible to perform on itActions – (optional) small chunks of business logicTests – complete end-to-end business flows

Re-use of testing assets by 30%-50%Maintainability Allowing all testers to participate in the automation effort; Increase of 200%-400% in automated tests

Automation Framework on top of Selenium

Usually 3-4 layers

Benefits

Tests are written in javascript and executed with grunt and jasmine

StormRunner LoadSaaS Load and Performance testing solution

Infra: basic actions not related to application, html actions with protractor | developed by automation tech-leadContainers: logical elements representing the real application | developed by DevTesterTests: jasmine files representing a business flow in the application | written by all testing team

3 layers of automation

How

StormRunner Load Infra

StormRunner Load Containers

StormRunner Load Test

Tests are written in Java, executed with junit

ALM Octane Next-Gen Application Management solution

Core: utilizes Web driver and locators – with help of dev architectEntities: the actual components/entities of the specific applicationActions: small building blocksTests: complete business flows written by all testers (technical and non-technical)

4 layers of automation

How

ALM OctaneCore

ALM OctaneEntities

ALM OctaneTest

a tool for recording Web-based applications. It is used inside LoadRunner for performance testing on the browser level

TruClient (?)

1. TruClient Sidebar2. TruClient Toolbox3. Firefox browser4. Application Browser Window5. TruClient Sidebar Status Pane

The Automation Suite

Containing the full AUT hierarchy, the App Model displays a Modular view of all the objects implemented in the tested application

LeanFT Application Model

LeanFT Everything is written in the IDE, Dev has access to tests (and used them for sanity)Test code is completely reusable among the whole test suiteThe test is authored once, and can be run on all three browsersIn the test setup, the TruClient launcher – written in WPF - is started and being used, and during the test, standard windows technologies are tested with LFT and web with Selenium.

LeanFT and Selenium working together to

close the technology gap

The Automation Suite

LeanFT & UFT using Web Driver

LFT/

Browser Initialization

Object Action

1st time we used Web Driver

to get access to the browser

Mobile Center using Appium

The single gateway that expands your organization to the mobile technology across the development lifecycle

HPE Mobile Center

HPE Mobile Center

1st time an open source testing tool is used in an

HPE tool

LeanFT better together with Selenium

• LeanFT-Selenium Side-by-Side – a project having both Selenium and LeanFT tests

• LeanFT-Selenium in One - a project that combines LeanFT and Selenium steps in a single test

LeanFT & Selenium

How

• Enhance your Selenium script with more technologies and improved object identification

• Robust Application Modeling and Structure

Why

• Intelligent Object Spy• Robust Application Modeling and Structure

What

LeanFT = UFT’s younger & cooler brother
