My tests fail when doing "rake test:functionals" but they pass consistently using autotest. The failing tests in question seems to be related to Authlogic not logging in the user properly when using rake. For facilitating signing in a user in tests, I have a test helper method as follows: class ActionController::TestCase def signin(...
Testers suppose to write test plan, write test cases, file bugs, and verify bug fixes. A senior tester should do things beyond that. Here are things I can think of that a senior tester should do: Mentor other testers. Create the test strategy for the whole team. What are the other responsibilities of a senior tester that you can thin...

I'm writing a program that creates and edits directories and files in a file system. I want to write a test that does things like (1) check if the given directory exists and (2) create a directory within the existing directory. What is the best way to test functionality like this? Is there a way to fake a file system (e.g. in m...
Is there a way to modularize JMeter tests. I have recorded several use cases for our application. Each of them is in a separate thread group in the same test plan. To control the workflow I wrote some primitives (e.g. postprocessor elements) that are used in many of these thread groups. Is there a way not to copy these elements into e...

Edit #2: Does anyone have a good method of testing the "middle" of a client-server application where we can intercept requests and responses, fake the client or server as needed, and which provides self-documentation of the api? Cucumber might be a good solution in many cases, but it's not quite what I'm looking for. And this middle la...

Our product includes some custom hardware, that connects to a PC via USB. We've started looking into automatic testing, but so far I'm unable to find a tool that can record/replay generic USB input. Does anyone know of such a tool? (And - it would be best if it's somehow scriptable - testing would have to alternate between GUI interac...

I am familiar with the concepts (took testing classes in college), but I am not sure how to really use them yet since I never worked on a "real" TDD project.
