"Overall, this book deserves full marks for content and value for money." (Computer Bulletin, November 2001)
Kurzbeschreibung
Durch den enormen Termindruck und die Entwicklung ständig neuer Technologien werden Softwaretests für Internetanwendungen bei der Softwareentwicklung häufig nicht ausreichend berücksichtigt. "Automated Web Testing Toolkit" konzentriert sich speziell auf Webanwendungen und ihre Konsequenzen für den Erfolg von Websites. Dabei befasst sich Autorin Diane Stottlemyer ausschließlich mit der Durchführung von Softwaretests in einer Webumgebung sowie mit intergrierten Tools und Techniken, die für eine reibungslose Umsetzung von Testplänen notwendig sind. Dieses Buch ist ein umfassendes und praktisches Nachschlagewerk für jeden Webmaster. Hier werden technische Aspekte für die Entwicklung und Testung von Codes ebenso erläutert wie deren Anwendung und anschließende Verbesserungen. Schwerpunktmäßig werden folgende Themen diskutiert: Testverfahren und Methodologien für Webanwendungen, Website- und Risikomanagement, Tests für verschiedene Programmiersprachen und Datenbanken, Durchführung von Softwarettests und Ergebnisanalyse. Ein unverzichtbares Buch für die tägliche Praxis.
Despite the potentially enormous cost to organizations from clunky Web sites, Web testing is often an overlooked aspect of the development process. Expert tester Diane Stottlemeyer provides developers with all the tools and templates they need to put a testing plan into motion. Focusing exclusively on testing in a Web environment, Stottlemeyer explains how to build and perform full-functionality Web testing, including code enhancement for adding features to existing applications and regression testing. Readers will get complete, step-by-step guidance on preparing, running, and analyzing tests on the Web, including how to test with different languages and databases, and how to test on different platforms and servers, including Linux.
Synopsis
This title provides a focused view of testing Web applications and the impact it has on the success of Web sites. Focusing exclusively on software testing in a Web environment and integrating tools and techniques needed to smoothly implement a testing plan it should be a working resource for every Webmaster. Readers will learn the technical aspects of developing and testing code, plus how to manage it and plan follow-up enhancements. Specific topics include: Web testing processes and methodologies; Web site and risk management; how to test in different languages and databases, and running tests and analysing results.

All the tools, templates, and techniques you need to execute a testing plan on different platforms and servers
Automated Web Testing Toolkit
Due to deadline constraints and rapidly evolving technologies, Web testing is often an overlooked aspect of development. Companies risk losing hundreds of thousands--even millions--of dollars without a secure testing process in place. As online businesses continue to grow, a lack of testing can lead to skyrocketing costs, interrupted workflow, and a loss of customers, and may ultimately mar a company's reputation. This critical book focuses exclusively on software testing in a Web environment and provides a comprehensive working resource for developers, programmers, software engineers, and Webmasters responsible for developing Web applications.
Offering a clear description of the technical aspects of developing and testing code, this book also illustrates how to manage a software project from inception to full execution and how to perform follow-up enhancements. Expert Diane Stottlemyer presents a reliable way to build and perform full-functionality Web testing and explains the code enhancements for adding features to existing applications and regression testing.
Providing essential and informative insights to Web testing, the material covers:
* Processes, methodology, and security measures
* Web site and risk management
* How to test in different languages (XML, HTML, Java, VBScript, etc.) and databases (Oracle, SQL Server, etc.)
* Preparing the environment for testing
* Capacity and regression testing
* Running tests, analyzing the results, and documentation
The CD-ROM includes customizable templates, sample test plans, cases, scripts and scenarios, a resource listing with links, and access to sample tools.
