If you develop, test, or manage .NET software, you will find .NET Test Automation Recipes: A Problem-Solution Approach very useful. The book presents practical techniques for writing lightweight software test automation in a .NET environment and covers API testing thoroughly. It also discusses lightweight, custom Windows application user interface automation and teaches you low-level web application user interface automation. Additional material covers SQL stored procedure testing techniques.
The examples in this book have been successfully used in seminars and teaching environments where they have proven highly effective for students who are learning intermediate-level .NET programming. You'll come away from the book knowing how to write production-quality combination and permutation methods.
This book presents practical techniques for writing lightweight software test automation in a .NET environment. If you develop, test, or manage .NET software, you should find this book very useful.
Before .NET, writing test automation was often as difficult as writing the code for the application under test itself. With .NET, it is possible to write lightweight, custom test automation (small, dedicated test harness programs which are two pages of source code or less in length and take less than two hours to write) in a tiny fraction of the time it used to take.
The emphasis of this book is on practical techniques that you can use immediately. It is intended for software developers, testers, and managers who work with .NET technology who have a basic familiarity with .NET programming but it does not make any particular assumptions about skill levels. The examples in this book have been successfully used in seminars and teaching environments where they have proven highly effective as a platform for students who are learning intermediate level .NET programming.
