Robot framework and Selenium2Library
Selenium2Library is library created for web testing. Robot framework utilizes this framework
Robot framework is mainly used for acceptance testing and it supports different browsers like IE, Chrome, Firefox etc.
Robot framework can be hosted in Github and script execution can be managed using Jenkins. I will be writing a detailed step by step documentation on Robot framework web testing implementation.
Jenkins vs GitHub
Jenkins allow continuous integration which helps developers or Automation testers to integrate code into a shared repository. It acts an open source automation server for test automation projects. Jenkins offers lots of plugins to integrate various tools.
GitHub is a web-based hosting service supporting distributed version control of codes. for e.g. if someone already registered a domain for a website in GoDaddy or similar domain services site but looking for a free hosting service, Github can be used to store code. Go daddy and Github should be linked to make this happen.
What is Foreign keys in database
Foreign keys are used in database to reference unique columns in another table.
Foreign keys connected with the concept of referential integrity.
What is Structured Query Language(SQL)
SQL is Structured Query Language. e.g.MySQL and Microsoft SQL Server both are relational database management systems)
Data Definition L (DDL) – Create, Alter, Drop
Data Manipulation Language (DML)- Select , Insert, Update, Delete
Data Control Language(DCL) – Grant, Revoke
Apache JMeter features and uses:
Apache JMeter is a performance tool developed in Java.
Supports both load and performance tests,
Supports different applications/server/protocol types,
Web – HTTP, HTTPS – i.e application made in Java, NodeJS, PHP, ASP.NET etc
SOAP / REST Webservices, FTP , LDAP & TCP etc.
Additionally it supports Database via JDBC, Message-oriented middleware via JMS, Mail – SMTP(S), POP3(S) and IMAP(S), also Native commands or shell scripts & Java Objects
LoadRunner version 12.53
I am yet to try the trial version of LoadRunner 12.53, However I read the following are some of the features shall be available for users
Git integration in VuGen
REST step builder editor in VuGen
64-bit replay support in various Java protocols and C Vuser protocol
New PCoIP remote access protocol
Enhanced SAPUI5 recording in TruClient
HTTP Video Streaming (HTML5, HLS) support
JSON manipulation APIs
Web – HTTP/HTML and Mobile Application – HTTP/HTML protocol unification
Linux load generator improvements
Enhancements to Java-based protocols etc are main features that I would like to try..
Java vs JavaScript
Java is an OOP programming language and written in Integrated Development Environment(IDE) like ECLIPSE however Java Script is an OOP scripting language and does not require any IDE. Java is class based but Java script is not. Java code needs compiling on IDE but JavaScript code does not. Java script is extensively used in World Wide Web apart from HTML and CSS. Java creates applications that run in a virtual machine or browser while JavaScript code is run on a browser only. JavaScript uses much smaller, easier and simpler set of commands than Java. Java is more rigid and complex.
Java OOP concepts
Object-Oriented Programming is a methodology to design a program using classes and objects. Java uses OOP.
Object – an entity that has state and behavior is known as an object
classes – Collection of objects is called class.
Polymorphism – When one task is performed by different ways or ability of an object to take on many forms.
Abstraction – Hiding internal details and showing functionality is known as abstraction.
Encapsulation – is a process of binding or wrapping the data with the code.
Inheritance – When one object acquires all the properties and behaviors of parent object. It helps on code re-usability.
JSON(JavaScript Object Notation) vs XML(extensible Markup Language)
JSON is more compact, readable and is an open standard format that uses human-readable text. JSON transimission is much more faster than XML. It is easy to use with Java script.
XML is a markup language is both human-readable and machine-readable, it defines a set of rules for encoding documents in a format, it is also aiming usability across Internet. XML has more data and bulky and slower than JSON.
JSON got a very simple syntax and could be easily learned. But the XML format can be determined by the XML DTD or XML Schema. JSON has the data-exchange format which is getting more popular as it is more JavaScript applications possible format.
Java Advanced definitions
The data structures provided by the Java utility package are the following interface and classes.
Enumeration – Enumeration interface feature is used for retrieving successive elements from a data structure.
BitSet – BitSet classes implement a group of bits or flags.
Vector – Vector class is similar to Java array however it has an ability to add new elements when required.
Stack – Stack class features ‘last in first out’ stack of elements.
Properties – Properties are subclass of Hash table. it is meant to maintain lists of values in which both key & Value are Strings.
Hashtable – Hashtable class is meant to organize data based on some user defined key structure.
Dictionary – Dictionary class is an abstract class that defines a data structure for mapping keys to values.
