Setting up Automated Testing Framework (ATF)

Here's our set up.

Scheduled Runner

We created a local admin account in our non-productions.

Then we added a powershell script to launch the browser to the scheduledrunner.

Test configurations

I prefer making the records user, the user's membership as part of thetest to ensure I have a clean, working state instead of picking a userwho may have that role.

1. Create a base Test, a test you will have everyone start from thatdoes the following;

• Create a user

• Create a user membership

• Impersonate the new user

1. Do the actual test.

Some items to remember

• Don't test code you don't own.

• Test's should be independent.

• Test good/bad path. Meaning, if you add functionality for x group,verify it doesn't exist for y group.
