About the Talk (slides)
Functional Testing is the process by which expected behavior of an application can be tested. Implementing functional test for your application early in the software development cycle speeds up development, improves quality and reduces risks towards the end of the cycle.
Most software undergo changes over a period of time. These changes may occur during the course of a single release, or across multiple releases. Any change to the software increases the chance of errors or bugs being introduced that breaks existing functionality. So we must test the software to ensure known existing behavior or functionality is not broken.
Writing web application tests by hand without tool support is exhausting and almost impossible at lager scale. Automating this task is both challenging, but when done right, very awarding. To test the Ericsson Mobile Health user interface we used Selenium, by which we create automatic tests and so ensure a quick and complete testing.
In this talk I want to present how we automated testing of EMH user interface, introduce the used tools, potential problems with automated testing and their possible solutions and show the benefits and goals achieved by this type of testing.
