Session Based Testing - brown bag

Hi there,

I have just finished a brown bag about Session Based testing, my sources are mainly the work of John and James Bach.

Here is my prezi 

My charter:

CHARTER
-----------------------------------------------
Retest all tasks and areas around them in ILIAS-EV 6.1.0
#AREAS

Build | ILIAS-EV 6.1.0

TEST NOTES
-----------------------------------------------
#Task2120:
Report creation and deletion is now stored in Audit Trail
Tested for reports from "Report Display" & "Export Display"
Tested Audit Trail filtering with really wide date spread (~30 years)
Exports from "Plausibility" tab does not create an entry in Audit Trail
#Task3088:
Reading documentation - its only on RM 2014 -> not possible to prepare data in this session
Retested only that it does not affect year 2011
#Task3089:
Its only on RM 2014 -> not possible to prepare data in this session
Retested only that it does not affect year 2011
Tried to create a RM for 2014 - found BUG3155
Checking if it also exists in ILIAS-CM - no
#Task 3140:
Description not clear enough to test sufficiently


BUGS

When to start automation?

If you are asking this as a tester, you probably asking too late. Automation is something that can save you some portion of your work (understand resources for your client) and i rarely found cases of testing work that did not need at least some portion of automation. I know that it is rarely understood that automation is something to be developed & maintained and if you cover enough of the application, you do not need any more regression - well i do not think that somebody has done an automation regression suite that if fully reliable (i am not speaking about maintaining this code - which is another topic). There can be always a bug (or quality issue) that slips through, even when you scripts go through the afflicted part. I understand that many testers have no development background or skills, but i doubt the developers that could help you are far away. I am not assuming that they can do the scripts for you.... However if they understand what you need, they can say how e

Cynefin beginnings

Cynefin was on my radar ever since I joined The House . It seemed an interesting idea worthy of further pursuit, therefore I decided to visit a training on this topic in London this April. Cynefin - my amazing drawing My first thought was  "What I'm doing here?!" - the other attendees were a mix of scrum masters, project managers and similar sort, which was actually to be expected. Cynefin is a decision-making framework which seems to be applicable mainly in management, but my firm belief is that testing can benefit from it equally. My goal was, however, to find out more about Cynefin and how to apply it to my work as a software tester. I expect it will take some time to my thoughts on this fully settle and I get the whole picture from this training. My colleagues got already some very good insights from cynefin, my goal is to follow this path. The purpose of this blog is to summarize my thoughts on this so I can revisit later in my life and maybe see how much

Testers toolkit

As every craftsman needs his tools, testers are no exceptions. I was this weekend at  SOCRATES SWITZERLAND  (SOftware CRAftsmanship and TESting) where we talked also about useful everyday tools. This list tries to be as general as possible to provide tools which can be useful to most part of everyday work, more specialised test-useful tools are very context dependent. I use most of the tools mentioned here and believe they can provide value also to you. Documenting Screenshot  - good picture is worth thousand words, this applies especially for testing, the following are some screenshotting tools and editors I used and can recommend Lightscreen  - simple tool for capturing pictures, free, cannot edit the pictures FastStone  - screen capturing tool and editor, cheap & gets the job done Snagit  - very powerful screen capturing tool and graphic editor, many functions which you never knew you can do, but wont be able to live without afterwards, a bit pricey Recording  (
