Presentation Description:

Many of us have experienced the challenges of automating embedded and mobile phone-based system-testing as prohibitively difficult. By approaching the problem from a test design perspective, and using that design to drive the automation initiative, we can set strategy, apply the methods and exploit the technology that will yield much higher volume of tests as a result. Drawing on experiences gained on several large-scale testing projects for leading smart-phone platforms and a Window CE embedded automotive testing platform, we will discuss how to setup a tethered automation agent to expose the GUI and drive tests at the device layer. Learn how to couple this technology solution with a test design methodology that helps even non-technical testers participate in the automation development and execution. Take back a new approach to achieve large-scale automation coverage that is easily maintainable over the long term.
