Technical Testing

TLDR; Bookmarklets are an easy way to have custom javascript to support your testing that sync across browsers.

TLDR; RestMud has JUnit Unit @Test coverage, functional integration testing, REST API testing with Jsoup and Gson, Bots for multi-user and model based testing, Postman and GUI based exploratory testing.

TLDR; Rather than pursue viral marketing millions, I have a released a new application for you to use for experimenting with exploratory testing, techical web testing, and JavaScript hacking. You can find it at eviltester.github.io/TestingApp/apps/testwith/version/1/testwith.html

Notes on JavaScript hacking for the test cellular automata game.

TLDR; With Chrome Code Snippets we can ‘run’ small chunks of code without using the console. And using a gist we can import and export them to a file.

TLDR; learn how to use the dev console and basic JavaScript commands (for, do…while, if…then, variables) to automate under the GUI and augment your interactive technical web testing.

TLDR; I wrote a random test data generator, not a slogan generator

TLDR; Hack for information. Cheating breaks the rules and introduces more risk. Automate the interfaces with less risk.

TLDR; take small steps when automating, keep your code working at all times, automate at an appropriate interface

TLDR; Learning to hack JavaScript will develop the skill of automating using the browser dev tools console.
