Automated Web Testing Toolkit

All the tools, templates, and techniques you need to execute a testing plan on different platforms and servers

Automated Web Testing Toolkit

Due to deadline constraints and rapidly evolving technologies, Web testing is often an overlooked aspect of development. Companies risk losing hundreds of thousands––even millions––of dollars without a secure testing process in place. As online businesses continue to grow, a lack of testing can lead to skyrocketing costs, interrupted workflow, and a loss of customers, and may ultimately mar a company’s reputation. This critical book focuses exclusively on software testing in a Web environment and provides a comprehensive working resource for developers, programmers, software engineers, and Webmasters responsible for developing Web applications.

Offering a clear description of the technical aspects of developing and testing code, this book also illustrates how to manage a software project from inception to full execution and how to perform follow-up enhancements. Expert Diane Stottlemyer presents a reliable way to build and perform full-functionality Web testing and explains the code enhancements for adding features to existing applications and regression testing.

Providing essential and informative insights to Web testing, the material covers:

• Processes, methodology, and security measures
• Web site and risk management
• How to test in different languages (XML, HTML, Java, VBScript, etc.) and databases (Oracle, SQL Server, etc.)
• Preparing the environment for testing
• Capacity and regression testing
• Running tests, analyzing the results, and documentation

The CD-ROM includes customizable templates, sample test plans, cases, scripts and scenarios, a resource listing with links, and access to sample tools.
