    4.5 Tips for Working With Tests in Tables

    Many applications render data in tables; writing tests for table-based data is a very common task. Unless you approach it with a bit of preparation, it’s also a task that can easily result in you building very brittle tests. Consider the following grid which displays a list of contacts after having taken actions elsewhere in the system. (I’m using a Telerik RadGrid for AJAX in this example, by the way.) Perhaps one of our tests is to verify Jayne Cobb appears in the table. I can easily do that in two steps via a recorded step. Easy! The problem is ...

Instead of a 100MB or larger download, we’re at 52MB – that’s a really nice improvement!

    New Video: Manual Testing (And What NOT to Automate!)

More importantly, you can use our Fast Forward feature to quickly step you through tedious setup and navigation actions. I’ve just posted a video on Telerik TV showing off this feature. It’s a step-by-step walkthrough meant to get you up and rolling with effective, useful manual tests. I also talk about something I feel very strongly about: Not test case should be automated. (I even wrote a blog post on this some time back, as ...

    New & Updated Videos for Working With Visual Studio and Test Studio Express!

    I’ve just updated our video on debugging tests in Visual Studio to show off the most current version of Test Studio. Have a look at this short video to get an overview of working with debugging in coded steps/tests. You’ll see the object explorer, Intellitrace, and a reminder about how cool the Immediate Window is when you’re exploring your code through the debugger! I also posted a brand-new video showing how to work with Test Lists inside Visual Studio. This short video shows you how to set up test lists to deal with Test Studio tests. You’ll see a ...
