JUnit confusion: use 'extend Testcase' or '@Test' ?
I've found the proper use (or at least the documentation) of JUnit very confusing. This question serves both as a future reference and as a real question. If I've understood correctly, there are two main approaches to create and run a JUnit test: Approach A (JUnit 3-style): create a class that extends TestCase, and start test methods w...
How can I decide what to test manually, and what to trust to automated tests?
We have a ton of developers and only a few QA folks. The developers have been getting more involved in qa throughout the development process by writing automated tests, but our QA practices are mostly manual.

Should GUIs have their own automated tests?
Is there any reason for automating tests that focus on GUI (and not to things under it)? In my opinion GUI (and changes in it) should always be tested by a real person.

Splitting a test to a set of smaller tests
I want to be able to split a big test to smaller tests so that when the smaller tests pass they imply that the big test would also pass (so there is no reason to run the original big test). I want to do this because smaller tests usually take less time, less effort and are less fragile. I would like to know if there are test design patte...

Is the WebAii test automation framework dead?
Is the WebAii framework still available and free? Am I just missing it? After putting it off for too long, I've finally started automated UI testing on my current project.

Using JUnit as an acceptance test framework
OK, so I work for a company who has openly adopted agile practices for development in recent years. Our unit tests and code quality are improving. One area we still are working on is to find what works best for us in the automated acceptance test arena. We want to take our well formed user stories and use these to drive the code in a ...
How to organize live data integrity tests and code unit tests?
I have several files with code testing code (which uses a "unittest" class). Later I found it would be nice to test database integrity also. I put this into a separate directory tree. (Things like the keys have correct format, parent and child nodes are pointing correctly and such. Edit: this is a nosql project, where I can not rely on ...
Automated testing of a website for IE7 javascript errors?
This week I decided to add a new element to a javascript array by copying a similar one from a previous line; unfortunately I forgot to remove the comma so the end result was something like var a = [1, 2, 3,]. The code went live late Friday afternoon just before everyone left for the week-end, and it completely broke everything in Inter...
generate images with labels from a database
hi there I need to have some images into my database, and the thing is that i need that images to have certain file names, dimensions and text on it.

In few words, what can be said about Mocking process in TDD
I'd like to brush my brain to avoid confusions. In few words, what can be said about Mocking process in TDD What's the GREAT idea behind MOCKING? Mocking frameworks are meant to be used only to avoid accessing DB during tests or they can be used for something else? For new comers (like me), are all the frameworks equal or I need to ch...
Disable selected automated tests at runtime
Is is posable to disable selected automated tests at runtime? I'm using VSTS and rhino mocks and have some intergation tests that require an external dependancy to be installed (MQ). Not all the developers on my team have this installed. Currently all the tests that require MQ inherit from a base class that checks if MQ is installed an...
