The Value of Automated Testing: A case study

lhridley

Automated testing isn't just for the development phase of a project. Post launch maintenance is critical to a site's success. Come hear how we are using automated testing as part of the overall continuous delivery strategy for the American Library Association Dues and Donations project. We will also review the inherent value of automated testing in ongoing project feature development and maintenance, including:

  • Catching unintended regressions resulting from module updates and upgrades
  • Defining Acceptance tests prior to development of feature enhancements
  • Catching unintended regressions resulting from feature enhancements and bug fixes
  • Automating Acceptance tests to support a successful Continuous Delivery process

At the end, we hope you will be inspired to implement your own automated testing.
