Do you find yourself rolling your eyes at the mere mention of 'test scripts'? Do you break into a cold sweat reading code? This is test automation for the haters, the skeptics, and the terrified.
Room F3 - Track 3: Talks
Anyone struggling with (or is scared of) test automation.
My experience with test automation isn’t necessarily positive. I’ve tried to give it an honest go, but the code stole my sanity. Some people like coding. I’m not one of them. I get very agitated.
I tried different tools, different languages, and worked on different projects. After a few years of giving it my all, I finally gave in and quit test automating (after almost throwing my laptop out the window). In the test world, however, it’s hard to work around test automation, because it’s an integral part of software testing.
If you’re able to sit through 20 minutes of jokes about test automation (and five minutes of actual tips), you will learn how to work around your inability to automate. Perhaps you will even find out why you’re not one of those test automation engineers that love what they do.
So there you have it. Test automation for those who despise it. Remember, laughter is the best medicine, especially when dealing with code. Happy testing, or should we say, happy jesting!
