We offer to read an annotation, description, summary or preface (depends on what the author of the book "The Way of the Web Tester: A Beginners Guide to Automating Tests" wrote himself). If you haven't found the necessary information about the book — write in the comments, we will try to find it.

This book is for everyone who needs to test the web. As a tester, youll automate your tests. As a developer, youll build more robust solutions. And as a team, youll gain a vocabulary and a means to coordinate how to write and organize automated tests for the web. Follow the testing pyramid and level up your skills in user interface testing, integration testing, and unit testing. Your new skills will free you up to do other, more important things while letting the computer do the one thing its really good at: quickly running thousands of repetitive tasks.

This book shows you how to do three things:

  • How to write really good automated tests for the web.
  • How to pick and choose the right ones.
  • How to explain, coordinate, and share your efforts with others.

If youre a traditional software tester who has never written an automated test before, this is the perfect book for getting started. Together, well go through everything youll need to start writing your own tests.

If youre a developer, but havent thought much about testing, this book will show you how to move fast without breaking stuff. Youll test RESTful web services and legacy systems, and see how to organize your tests.

And if youre a team lead, this is the Rosetta Stone youve been looking for. This book will help you bridge that testing gap between your developers and your testers by giving your team a model to discuss automated testing, and most importantly, to coordinate their efforts.

The Way of the Web Tester is packed with cartoons, graphics, best practices, war stories, plenty of humor, and hands-on tutorial exercises that will get you doing the right things, the right way.

Early praise for The Way of the Web Tester

The Way of the Web Tester is really The Way of the Conscientious Web Developer, providing a comprehensive journey through automated behavior-testing for web applications, from round-trip UI tests to fast-running unit tests. The examples are never simplistic, and helpful characters, including Diane the Developer and Tim the Tester, seem to know exactly what the reader is thinking. If youre writing web applications, you should have this book in your back pocket.

Dan North
Principal consultant, Dan North & Associates Ltd.

Everything in this book IS awesome! What I love most about The Way of the Web Tester is that its a book for the whole team. Whether youre a tester nervous about coding skills, or a coder anxious about writing maintainable tests, this book will encourage you to collaborate for success. The step-by-step visuals will guide you through good coding and design practices and principles for robust, valuable automated tests. Most importantly, youll learn how to deliver great software by writing tests first!

Lisa Crispin
Co-author with Janet Gregory of More Agile Testing: Learning Journeys for the Whole Team, http://www.agiletester.ca

This is a highly inspirational book on test automation: as a reader, you get a deep understanding of what role test automation plays and the value it brings for the tech industry. Whether youre a tester, developer, or product owner, after finishing there should no longer be any doubts: quality must be built in from the start.

Julia Osk

This book has some great ideas and examples, and I willrecommend it to teams who are struggling with automation and how to start.

Chapter 1 is probably the best overview of automated testing I have ever read.

Acknowledgements

This book would not have been possible were it not for the love of my life, Tannis, and our three wonderful children, Lucas, Rowan, and Brynn, who supported and loved me every step of the way.

A book like this doesnt happen without a wonderful editor and publisher. Everything quality can be attributed to Susannah Pfalzer. Everything else is mine.

And of course this book wouldnt be what it is without the incredible feedback and insight generously given by its reviewers and commenters:

Matteo Vaccari, Julia Osk, Dan North, Kristian Karl, Fredrik Stridsman, Lisa Crispin, Michael Thelin, Bianca Mihai, Anders Ivarsson, Peter Hampton, Nigel Lowry, Javier Collado, Jason Yip, Elijah Wright, Michael Holland, Nicolae Ciocan, Loren Sands-Ramshaw, ...


Its Good to See You!

This is a book about how to write automated tests for the web. Its a book for anyone who has ever wanted to learn:

  • How automated testing on the web works
  • What the different kinds of automated tests are
  • And, most importantly, how to get started writing them, even if you have little or no programming background or experience

Be warnedthis isnt your typical deep dive tutorial book. We arent going to spend hundreds of pages walking you through how to set up this kind of test framework or that. The technology changes too quickly.

Instead, we are going to focus on the fundamentals. Those things that simply dont change. These you will be able to take with you and apply to any projectregardless of which automated test framework or platform you choose to use.
