4 Program Agenda How is testing done today? Testing challenges The Oracle solution Product Demo Real-world Case Study 4

5 How Is Testing Done Today? Typical scenario Testing team have to wait for application Test automation project is started once the application is available Teams of testers and application users are required for testing Test team works with application users to understand scenarios and flows for testing as well as the scope of the testing project Test automation begins Test team is provided access to a test environment Test team begins to build test automation scripts Test team consults application users for clarification of scenarios 5

8 Testing Challenges Growing complexity of applications requires more testing Manual testing takes too long Business users do not have time to test every change (repeatedly) Difficult to find technical resources for test automation Unable to leverage automated testing due to unavailability of technical resources Constant business process changes render test assets obsolete Scripts needs to be maintained/recreated after changes to the applications 8

9 New Approach to Testing Making sure your application is tested Dramatically reduces testing time? Minimizes the need for technical resources Reduces the testing complexity Minimizes the effort to keep you test assets current 9

10 INTRODUCING ORACLE FLOW BUILDER - KEYWORD DRIVEN TESTING 10

11 What Is Keyword Driven Testing? Keyword-driven testing is another way of creating automated tests It enables non-technical testers to compose test flows by defining series of user actions that together define an application user flow User actions are defined using pre-defined keywords such as Click, SetText, Select, etc. Test flows are then transformed into executable test automation scripts at run time 11

12 How Is Keyword Driven Testing Implemented? Example Use a Keyword driven testing framework as harness Testers analyze the application to test and define Keywords Technical testers implement Keywords and map these to code Keywords Click & Button could for example generate the code web.button(object).click(); Non-technical testers use Keywords to mimic actions in Flows SetText Id_UserName John Doe SetText Id_Password MyS3Cr3T Click Button OK Bind test data to Flows Generate test automation scripts 12

13 Pros and Cons of Keyword Driven Testing Keyword driven testing Pros Maintenance is lower (over time) Test cases are concise Readable test cases for stake holders Test cases are easy to modify Cons Requires technical resource for keyword implementation Test cases can reuse keywords Only suitable for applications where keywords / user actions can be re-used in many places More robust test scripts Framework may support multiple test automation tool Longer Time to Market Build framework Define keywords & code Steeper initial learning curve 13

24 Record/Playback vs Oracle Flow Builder Steps to automate a testing Traditional record / playback Deploy AuT Record Script(s) Add verifications Parametrize Synchronize Stabilize Keyword driven testing with Oracle Flow Builder (Create Components) Assemble Flows Bind test data Generate Script 24

25 What If The Application Changes? How To Handle Changes in Application Analyze and identify areas where application changed Update components or flow structure accordingly If required update test data Re-generate test automation scripts Changes in UI Changes in UI only only Where is the change? Update component Update test data Changes in UI & transactions/logic Update component Copy flow structure Enter test data Generate script Generate script 25

26 Record/Playback vs Oracle Flow Builder Steps to maintain test automation Traditional record / playback Re-record Script(s) Add verifications Parametrize Synchronize Stabilize Keyword driven testing with Oracle Flow Builder (Update Components) (Update Flows) (Bind test data) Generate Script 26

35 Addressing The Testing Challenges Oracle Flow Builder Manual testing takes too long Oracle Flow Builder can reduce the need for manual testing freeing the business users from manual testing Difficult to find technical resources for test automation Oracle Flow Builder requires less technical resources allowing testing team to work more efficiently Constant business process changes render test assets obsolete Oracle Flow Builder requires a fraction of maintenance compared to traditional scripts, allowing customers to keep up-to-date 35

36 Addressing The Testing Challenges Oracle Flow Builder Reduce test development effort Make use of pre-defined components Compress lead time for testing Test script development can begin before application is ready Easy maintenance Quick and easy changes of components and flows AUT* does not have to be available when creating the scripts When AUT* changes testers only have to update Keywords or flows 36 * Application Under Test

37 Addressing The Testing Challenges Oracle Flow Builder Eliminates the major drawbacks of keyword driven testing Pre-defined Keywords Pre-defined components & flows 37

38 With Oracle Flow Builder we address the key issue of automating EBS testing content and reusability. We have derived up to 60% savings using Oracle Flow Builder over traditional methods Srikanth Krishnan Senior Director, EBS QA, Oracle. 38
