This 2-day course is designed to
familiarize testing professionals with the
basics of Rational's functional test
automation tool, Rational Robot. Students
will be provided with hands-on instruction,
from simple record/playback techniques to
advanced test scripting concepts. Rational
TestManager will be used to organize and
process test results to facilitate data
analysis. The focus will be on applying
Rational Robot to resolve common automated
testing challenges and to build effective,
versatile test scripts through best
practices and savvy usage of SQABasic code.
At the conclusion of this module, principles
learned will be applied to a .NET-based
sample application. |
• New Rational Robot, TeamTest, TestStudio,
or Enterprise users. The principles taught
in this course apply to all environments
that Robot supports. The course is designed
primarily for Quality Assurance
professionals who will be using the
automation tools.
