How to Automate Conference Call Testing
 |
Automating testing is an important aspect of software development. It helps to ensure that software systems function as intended and that any changes made do not break existing functionality. One common scenario that developers may want to automate testing for is Delete Post. There are several ways how to do it. The simplest and most effective is to use testRigor with steps written in plain English. This will allow you to achieve several goals at the same time:
- Test stability - as soon as the Eglish-level description stays true test won't fail
- Collaboration - anyone, including Product Managers, Engineers, Manual Testers, etc. will be able to understand the script and review/contribute to it
- It can be written even before functionality is released
- Minimal maintenance is required. No changes are needed until the specification changes
The example of the test for Delete Post in testRigor is this:
save value "[email protected]" as "username"
save value "password1" as "password"
login
click "Start conference call"
click "Dismiss" if page contains "Your conference call has started"
click "Invite people to the call"
enter "[email protected], [email protected], [email protected]" into "Search for participants"
click "Invite to call"
start browser "user2" and switch
save value "[email protected]" as "username"
save value "password2" as "password"
login
check that email from "[email protected]" to "[email protected]" was delivered
check that page contains "[email protected] has invited you to a conference call"
grab value of "$#91;0-9$#93;{6}" and save it as "AccessCode"
click "Join this call"
enter "[email protected]" into "Username"
enter stored value "AccessCode" into "Access Code"
click "Connected users"
check that page contains exactly "[email protected] (You)"
check that page contains "[email protected]" below exactly "[email protected] (You)"
start browser "user3" and switch
save value "[email protected]" as "username"
save value "password3" as "password"
login
check that email from "[email protected]" to "[email protected]" was delivered
check that page contains "[email protected] has invited you to a conference call"
grab value of "$#91;0-9$#93;{6}" and save it as "AccessCode"
click "Join this call"
enter "[email protected]" into "Username"
enter stored value "AccessCode" into "Access Code"
click "Connected users"
check that page contains exactly "[email protected] (You)"
check that page contains exactly "[email protected]" below exactly "[email protected] (You)"
check that page contains "[email protected]" below exactly "[email protected] (You)"
start browser "user4" and switch
save value "[email protected]" as "username"
save value "password4" as "password"
login
check that email from "[email protected]" to "[email protected]" was delivered
check that page contains "[email protected] has invited you to a conference call"
grab value of "$#91;0-9$#93;{6}" and save it as "AccessCode"
click "Join this call"
enter "[email protected]" into "Username"
enter stored value "AccessCode" into "Access Code"
click "Connected users"
check that page contains exactly "[email protected] (You)"
check that page contains exactly "[email protected]" below exactly "[email protected] (You)"
check that page contains exactly "[email protected]" below exactly "[email protected] (You)"
check that page contains "[email protected]" below exactly "[email protected] (You)"
As you can see, the steps are easy to understand and self-explanatory.
This allows developers to write test cases quickly and efficiently, reducing the time and effort required for testing.
