I also hear that automated GUI testing is bad and not worth it. Is there any better way of automating regression testing. if so any good tools to automate GUI tests...
Does anyone know ways of partially or fully automating driver test installation? I am new to driver development and am used to more of a test-driven approach in higher level languages, so moving to the kind of environment where I can't easily test as I go has been a step up for me. I am using Virtual PC for my test environment and curr...

Hi, what do you prefer for testing JavaScript apps using Cucumber? I never did it before - I only used Webrat for testing plain html. I have tried Selenium, but it frustrated me and I didn't find any good documentation about Cucumber in combination with Selenium. Best regards ...
If I have an existing solution containing multiple c# projects, are there any static analysis tools that can help me determine which areas of code are the most often used? I'd like to use this information in order to determine which areas should have their test coverage ramped up first. I've looked at some static analysis tools alread...
I'm using PHPUnit and my traditional approach is to use mock objects and methods that get called by the methods I'm testing. The mock objects are told what to expect as input by the unit test. The problem is that part of the input supplied to the mock objects are being randomly generated by the methods being tested (and the unit test has...
I have a class like the following: class Positive(object): def __init__(self, item): self._validate_item(item) self.item = item def _validate_item(self, item): if item <= 0: raise ValueError("item should be positive.") I'd like to write a unit test for _validate_item(), like the following: ...
We've got a python library that we're developing. During development, I'd like to use some parts of that library in testing the newer versions of it. That is, use the stable code in order to test the development code. Is there any way of doing this in python? Edit: To be more specific, we've got a library (LibA) that has many useful thi...

There are a few quirks occuring with iPhone users that would like to fix but I am unsure how to test them.

I finally plucked up the courage to go and formally complain to the heads about my boss. What's really scary is that the claims I have made are serious enough to be taken to the CEO in a couple of weeks. I've been asked today to procure some documents referring to some points I have outlined and wanted some real-world developer input o...
Hi, Does anyone know of a MM7 server I can use for testing my MMS client? I've looked at mm7.net, but this is more of a toolkit than a testserver. And it is really lacking in good documentation (a how to guide etc). thanks ...
I recently discussed with a colleague about mocking. He said that mocking classes is very bad and should not be done, only in few cases. He says that only interfaces should be mocked, otherwise it's an architecture fault. I wonder why this statement (I fully trust him) is so correct? I don't know it and would like to be convinced. Did...
Does anyone use a rule of thumb basis to estimate the effort required for testing as a percentage of the effort required for development? And if so what percentage do you use? ...
I'm looking for an automated way to fuzz my app or scan it for vulnerabilities. Please assume that my hacking knowledge is 0. Also the source is on my localhost so I need a way to fuzz it locally without relying on an internet connection. Can some security experts give me some hints or recommendations? I'm not sure what options are best....
Hello everyone, I have implemented FIFO semaphores but now I need a way to test/prove that they are working properly. A simple test would be to create some threads that try to wait on a semaphore and then print a message with a number and if the numbers are in order it should be FIFO, but this is not good enough to prove it because that ...
Are there any tools for performing static analysis of Scala code, similar to FindBugs and PMD for Java or Splint for C/C++? I know that FindBugs works on the bytecode produced by compiling Java, so I'm curious as to how it would work on Scala. Google searches (as of 27 October 2009) reveal very little. Google searches (as of 01 Februar...
We have a c# app that uses a number of libraries (that we wrote too). The app depends on the different libraries and some of the libraries depend on some of the other libraries. Now when it comes to testing the app we also need to make sure that the libraries are all working correctly. The problem is that the app only uses a small amoun...
Is there any software that allows "users" to test a web application? From the GUI point of view? for example completing forms and submiting them automatically, testing field validation, etc? without having the need to go through the entire app and test the common stuff? I found software that do something lke that but its mostly on the ...
