    The UI Automation Support Highest Requirements – UIA Verify Tool Update with Preconditions Failure

    Overall, we got quite good impression from the UIA Verify tool, I wrote about last week. Yet, there is an issue that provoked me to download the source and modify the tool behavior. As a tester, I believe the automated tests should pass only when you get the full test running through all the actions and verifications. The original UIA Verify though marks as passed all the tests which preconditions are not met. That doesn’t help much if you need to verify all the scenarios pass successfully, does it? I’ve modified the source so now the failed preconditions cause test ...

    Testing RadControls for ASP.NET Ajax with Watir – How easy it is

    Today was my first attempt at writing tests for RadControls with Watir and was surprised how easy it is. I found over the internet a good article on how to test ASP.NET applications using Watir and also referred to the Hristo Deshev’s blog post about Automating Complex JavaScript-rich Controls with Watir. If you use the approach described in it and create a watir_telerik_extensions.rb file, you will be able to create tests very quickly. See below a few tests about RadMenu, RadComboBox and RadTreeView which I have created in minutes: 1. This is a RadComboBox test which opens the drop down ...

The tool was published by the Microsoft UI Automation team about 7 months ago and according to the release page, it was downloaded about thousand of times so far. Still, I didn’t find any public articles regarding its advantages not because the tool is useless, quite the opposite! So I decided to describe the tool’s features briefly and I hope you’ll enjoy the tutorial. First of ...

    Joining the Silverlight Testing World

    Back in late 2006 I started this blog, posting content based entirely on the ASP.NET tester’s activities. At the end of summer 2008 I was still completely focused on ASP.NET. You never know what fate will bring you in a month, what about a year or two. Since the beginning of September 2008 I joined the Telerik Silverlight team. My main responsibilities are to build the test strategy, organize the work in all terms of quality assurance and help the team of talented developers release a great suite of Silverlight controls. You have probably already seen the latest nice ...

    I'm back again, what comes next?

    Yeah, I know, it's been quite some time since my last post. The ideas keep coming though and I’ve just realized there is no better time for a QA to blog than ... the summer. Do you know why? Well, just because of the summer time! You know, devs are humans too and they also need to rest a bit. ;) I can at least stop bugging around for a while and post some nice, interesting content. I'm afraid the list of ideas for my future posts is already quite long. However, since I'd like to share the most fascinating ...
