I will be giving a talk at STARWest
on testing Ajax applications using Open Source Test Tools in September
2008.
Here is the updated abstract for the talk:
Ajax developers and testers are challenged to develop unit tests, functional tests, and load and performance tests in a time when Ajax, REST, and Web application development is expanding greatly. Frank Cohen, the leading authority on testing Ajax applications, will explain his methodology to find and solve scalability, performance, and reliability issues in Ajax applications. Frank will show how to apply the methodology using Selenium, soapUI, TestGen4Web, PushToTest, and many other open-source test projects. Frank will show hands-on lessons using Ajax applications created with Appcelerator and Google Widget Toolkit (GWT) frameworks. Frank will show how to use Firebug and Firefox to identify and instrument user interface elements for testing, he will show how to construct a functional unit test to perform a test business flow, how to provide the test with operational data at test run time, how to validate the test responses, and how to automate the entire test.
