2 Speakers Guy Arieli CTO Experitest Mahendra Singh Project Manager (MATE) Tech Mahindra

3 Agenda 1 What is UFT? 5 Demo 2 UFT for Mobile 6 Seleinum vs UFT for Mobile -Which 3 What is Selenium? one is right for your testing team? 4 Selenium for mobile 7 Case studies

4 UFT and Selenium - Tool Assessment

5 What is UFT, QTP? UFT is the HP solution (previously called QTP) for Test Automation.. Runs on VB script A UI based automation tool. Focus on Web and desktop technologies

6 UFT for Mobile Experitest Mobile Add on for UFT Mobile Menu Devices & Applications Managing Full & complete integration into HP UFT software Record a test, edit it, run it, and view results (report) Integration of object repository (mobile object properties) Object Spy include Native & Web identification methods Integration into HP s Quality Center & Performance Center

7 Competitive Landscape- Plug in for UFT Mobility Capabilities Support all OS. Support all Mobile devices Support all app types Experitest Mobile Add on for UFT Enterprise readiness Integration to all CI stability scalability Remote capabilities HP End to End solution

8 What is Selenium? Selenium is an open source test automation framework that support cross browser test automation Selenium 2 also known as WebDriver Selenium supports perl, php, python, objective-c, java, Microsoft.net, ruby, and more. It is not a tool with a UI it uses a programming language to use it specifically This project gain extremely high popularity and support due to HP pricing and luck of support for SMBs

9 Selenium for Mobile Experitest Mobile Plug in for Selenium Experitest provide enterprise grade solution based on WebDriver API called MobilWebDriver Providers interface to interact with Mobile Application All function of Seetest Automation Tool can be executed in Java Selenium environment using MobilWebDriver

10 Competitive Landscape- Plug in for Selenium Mobility Capabilities Support all OS. Support all Mobile devices Support all app types Experitest plug in for selenium Enterprise readiness Integration to all CI stability scalability Remote capabilities End to End solution Selenium

11 UFT Vs Selenium Which is better for your testing team

12 UFT vs Selenium Which is better for Mobile Strategy? Supported language Mobile Add on for UFT VB Script Experitest Mobile Plugin for Selenium JAVA

13 Language Supported Java Using IDEs like Eclipse made writing Java easier then working with any other scripting language. Every student that graduate BSC in computer science knows Java. Java is Object Oriented, it can be very important in large automation projects. Microsoft VbScript Scripting Language. Lack full features of a programming language. Interpreted Considered to be easier to learn Vbscript cannot run on MAC. Easy to integrate with your enviourment backend

14 UFT vs Selenium Which is better for Mobile Strategy? Supported language Mobile Add on for UFT VB Script Experitest Mobile Plugin for Selenium JAVA Object Identification Descriptive Programing

15 Object Repository vs. Descriptive programming UFT uses Object Repository (by default). *** Selenium uses 'descriptive programming' (by default). With Experitest Mobile plugin for Selenium you can use object repository or descriptive programming in your WebDriver project. Object Repository- Pros When identification of an object changed, the update is done in a single place. Support internal tools like 'Object Spy'. Object Repository- cons Hard to source control. Hard to merge. Can reduce the test visibility. Can cause inconsistency in behavior.

16 UFT vs Selenium Which is better for Mobile Strategy? Supported language Object Identification Descriptive Programing Test Recording capabilities Xpath Object Spy Mobile Add on for UFT VB Script Experitest Mobile Plugin for Selenium JAVA

17 Programing skills? Yes / NO To build a successful automation project you will need to have programing capabilities No coding, approach is very limited and in many cases will fail Recording capabilities can ease the tool learning curve <!!!> Many testing team has programing knowledge in Vbscript Most of the computer science graduates has good Java knowledge

18 UFT vs Selenium Which is better for Mobile Strategy? Supported language Object Identification Descriptive Programing Test Recording capabilities Xpath Object Spy Parallel Execution Mobile Add on for UFT VB Script x Experitest Mobile Plugin for Selenium JAVA

19 Parallel Execution UFT can only perform one test per machine. Selenium can perform multiple & simultaneous tests

20 Demo

N L SeeTestCloud Device Lab located onsite (in the customer VPN) Devices can be reserved and accessed by any remote user Used in conjunction with SeeTestAutomation/Manual for testing of remote devices SeeTestNetworkVirtualization Device performance under varying network conditions Simulating mobile network bandwidth latency and reception while on the move SeeTestLoad Real device generated mobile load Full integration to LoadRunner, Jmeter, etc.

22 Case Study Banking

23 Customer Profile: Multinational banking and financial services company Major global financial services provider engaged in personal banking, credit cards, corporate and investment banking and wealth and investment management. Headquartered in UK Spans over 50 countries across Europe, America, Africa & Asia ~150,000 employees What needed to be tested? The bank s personal and business account management apps Mobile applications in tens of languages Ranked in top 10 largest banks worldwide Revenue of ~$30 Bn.

24 Implementation Years working with the tool: 1 Over 25 SeeTestAutomation stations Number of Automation engineers working on the project: 25 2 geographical locations around the world (US, Europe, Africa and China) Number of tests before: 0 Number of tests today: ~2,000 Number of executed tests: ~200,000 (each test can run on more than one device) Build single test that can run on Chrome / IE / Firefox and Safari for Desktop And Chrome / Safari / IE for mobile (ios, Android and WP8.1).

25 Coverage Total coverage: ~90%. Number of executions of the full cycle: Once a day Full app test coverage for all OS-Cross platform testing of Android ios WindowsPhone8 Full end-to-end coverage of test scenario Support for multiple languages (including English, Spanish, French)

26 ROI What if we did it manually? A single QA engineer: 56 man years to finish the cycle (lifetime). For one day we would need 20,000 trained manual QA engineers. Another Advantage The R&D engineers can work faster and take more risks According to the bank R&D managers the development speed is 3-4 times faster!

27 Case Study Transportation

28 5 Customer Profile: Major National Railroad Passenger Corporation US national rail operator operating over 300 trains and an average of 85,000 passengers a day in USA & Canada. Last year served more than 30 million people. Headquartered in Washington DC, USA More than 20,000 employees Revenue: ~3 Bn
