RCPTT, With a Hint of Cucumber

Automated UI Testing is always a challenge. User Acceptance Tests involving domain knowledge and particular conditions are often hard to test and even harder to fully automate.
The RCP Testing Tool (RCPTT) allows to simulate end to end user tests of the whole system, including the UI. Use cases are automated and can be repeated without involvement of actual users or testers. RCPTT enables test automation of UI tests for Eclipse plugins and Eclipse RCP based applications. In a nutshell RCPTT is like Selenium for Eclipse desktop applications.

Is your open source project doing what it promised?

Luca Favaretto (Kalpa S.r.l.)

How does a testing team approach an Open Source project? There are two ways to do it: a reactive and a proactive approach.
In this talk we would like to present our proactive approach executed in the Oniro project and the beneficial effects that this approach gives to the product. We will compare this methodology with the reactive one and how it will improve the overall project quality.
This talk shall target Project Managers, Team Leaders and V&V People.
