Automated Web Testing with Selenium
lokesh.soni
Every software development group tests its products, yet delivered software always has defects. Test engineers strive to catch them before the product is released but they always creep in and they often reappear, even with the best manual testing processes. Automated software testing is the best way to increase the effectiveness, efficiency and coverage of your software testing.
In the session we will learn how to automate web applications for testing purposes. Drupal web-based administration tasks can (and should!) also be automated as well.
