Test Automation Consultancy

I can help you improve your Test Automation through consultancy, coaching or training.

I have helped teams implement and improve their Test Automation and use of Selenium WebDriver and API Automating libraries.

If you are facing any of these problems then I have solved them for other clients and can help you:

flaky test automation and need experienced help to make it robust?
you are using Selenium WebDriver are not sure how to make it even better?
you want to maximise the re-use potential of your automated code but are not sure how?
your team need to improve fast but you’re not sure about the next steps to take?
you want to automate the API but don’t know where to start?

Proof of concepts

created proof of concept automation code to demonstrate the effective use of Selenium WebDriver on client applications (in both Java and C# .Net).
- Even a small engagement, such as one or two days of proof of concept automation, has provided a reference artifact that clients have built on and referred to for months, as they incrementally improve their use of automation tools.

Quick Start Introduction of Automated Execution into projects

created the basic abstraction layers appropriate for projects for GUI and REST API work
created Page Object Level abstractions,
created Domain Object Level abstractions,
trained the team and mentored them in robust automated execution approaches

Test Automation Code Reviews

By reviewing automation code remotely and onsite
Sharing lessons learned from experience
Helping create more maintainable and readable code
Showing why good coding practices are important for Test Autoamtion
Saving code that would have been scrapped and started over

Interested in Improving the Quality of your Automation Code?

Improved Existing Automation Approaches

helped testers, familiar with other automation tools, migrate to Selenium WebDriver,
help maximise the value of running the automated tests through continuous integration,
use standard technologies for reporting to minimise manual test reporting for automation and improve the visibility of the coverage of automated execution,
trained people with no automation experience to use Selenium and REST API tools
helped people use Selenium in conjunction with specification tools such as FitNesse and Spock,
and more…

Automation Health Check Reviews

A health check review is a short term engagement to give you confidence in what you are doing well and identify improvements with discrete steps to take action on.

A review of existing automation approaches - not limited to Selenium WebDriver - to identify risks, gaps, improvements, assess the effectiveness of tools in use and recommend alternatives. This has covered areas such as
- GUI automation as well as non-GUI automation
- Mobile and Desktop automation as well as Web automation
- Use and generation of test data
