Test Automation

Test automation is a fantastic field of engineering. Unfortunately, most test automation efforts fail soon after being initiated. From the many promises of ease of automation to oversimplified vendor demonstrations, it's easy to spend significant time and cost pursuing test automation with little to show in the end. If only there was a way to avoid the pitfalls encountered when embarking upon test automation? Greg Paskal shares his best insights learned as a successful test automation engineer.

Effective Software Testing teaches you a systematic approach to software testing that will ensure the quality of your code. It’s full of techniques drawn from proven research in software engineering, and each chapter puts a new technique into practice. Follow the real-world use cases and detailed code samples, and you’ll soon be engineering tests that find bugs in edge cases and parts of code you’d never think of testing! Along the way, you’ll develop an intuition for testing that can save years of learning by trial and error.

Unit Testing Principles, Patterns and Practices shows you how to refine your existing unit tests by implementing modern best practices. You’ll learn to spot which tests are performing, which need refactoring, and which need to be deleted entirely! Upgrade your testing suite with new testing styles, good patterns, and reliable automated testing.

The book “Accelerating Software Quality: Machine Learning and Artificial Intelligence in the Age of DevOps” is a complete asset for software developers, testers, and managers that are on their journey to a more mature DevOps workflow, and struggle with better automation and data-driven decision making. DevOps is a mature process across the entire market, however, with existing Non-AI/ML technologies and models, it comes short in expediting release cycle, identifying productivity gaps and addressing them. This book, that was implemented by myself with the help of leaders from the DevOps ...

Test Description

How can software engineers manage a living codebase that evolves and responds to changing requirements and demands over the length of its life?

Passing the FAA Part 107 test to acquire a license for commercial remote piloting of unmanned drone aircraft may seem overwhelming to those unfamiliar with fundamental aeronautical principles or who are rusty on some of the finer points. This up-to-date compilation of aviation facts, numbers, and ideas was prepared by the Unmanned Safety Institute. With appropriate preparation and correct advice, the Part 107 Remote Pilot Certificate may be scaled through. The Small Unmanned Aircraft General Exam has 60 questions that cover all aspects of UAS operation.
