The tips point to practices that save time and increase the accuracy and reliability of automated test techniques. Techniques that play well during demos of testing tools often are not the optimal techniques to apply on a running project. This book highlights those differences, helping you apply techniques that are repeatable and callable in professionally run software development projects. Emphasis is placed on creating tests that, while automated, are easily adapted as the software under construction evolves toward its final form. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eTechniques in the book are arranged into five categories: scripting, testing, the environment, running and logging of tests, and reviewing of the results. Every automation engineer sooner or later will face similar issues to the ones covered in these categories, and you will benefit from the simple and clear answers provided in this book. While the focus of the book is on theuse of automated tools, the tips are not specific to any one vendor solution. The tips cover general issues that are faced no matter the specific tool, and are broadly applicable, often even to manual testing efforts.  \u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eWhat You'll Learn\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEmploy best-practices in automated test design\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWrite test scripts that will easily be understood by others\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eChoose the proper environment for running automated tests\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAvoid techniques that demo well, but do not scale in practice\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eManage tests effectively, including testing of test scripts themselves\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eKnow when to go beyond automation to employ manual methods instead\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cb\u003eWho This Book Is For\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSoftware test engineers working with automated testing tools, and for developers working alongside testing teams to create software products.
