Organizations often purchase Software Test Automation Tools without the proper amount of research
and planning, and as a result end up with results that can approach a total failure. The tools themselves are often
blamed, but only after much money and effort are spent in trying to achieve successful results. The reasons driving
these decisions are related to time to market, hope for an increased quality level of testing, and being able to
do more with fewer resources.
This course will walk the student through a step-by-step process which he/she will be able to use to determine
if their organization is right for automation, how to evaluate and select automated testing tools, how to develop
effective test plans and scripts, which metrics to collect and how to report on them, and how to build an effective
organization around the use of these tools. |
