Tomorrow, November 28, 2018: Webinar with Lisa Crispin: Modeling Your Test Automation Strategy

Tomorrow, November 28th, 2018, Lisa Crispin, from AgileTester.ca, will be giving a webinar on modelling an automation strategy, brought to you by Mabl, a sponsor of the Meetup I run, the Ministry of Testing - Boston.

"Test automation has been a controversial subject for decades. In this new age of continuous delivery, it’s safe to say that most teams will not succeed with frequent delivery to production at a sustainable pace without automating at least some significant part of their regression testing, as well as other types of testing such as performance and reliability. In this three part webinar, we’ll explore how your team can use visual models to formulate and implement a test automation strategy that will achieve your goals.

"In Part I, we will look at why teams struggle to get traction on test automation, and how using a visual model can help them get past the painful parts of an automation journey. We’ll start with the classic test automation pyramid from Mike Cohn, and explore some of the interesting variations that have grown out of it".

Jason Ioannides, API Testing: From Entry Level to a PhD in 40 mins

What an amazing webinar! Today I watched an Association of Software Testing (AST), API Testing: From Entry Level to a PhD in 40 mins with Jason Ioannides. With a name like that, I expected to get a lot of information, but not the level that I actually received!

About the Webinar

From the Webinar Site:

"Have you seen a recent job posting for a Tester or QA Engineer? The majority of job descriptions have some requirement for API Testing experience. That’s how important and in-demand the skills are for testing (let alone automating) an API. What do you do if this is all new to you? What about if you have some experience but are looking to level up? Look no further.

"Jason Ioannides from API Fortress will quickly walk through the basics of what an API is, and then dive into what parts of an API can break, some real world examples, and a list of good practices to add to your checklist. This talk is for everyone from beginners to the more advanced user of Postman/SoapUI/REST-Assured". - API Testing
