Issue 16   July 3, 2007

Welcome to the July issue of the STAR Tester. As summer is well underway I hope you are enjoying some good weather and finding some time to relax over the next couple of weeks.

For anyone who missed our May or June live online webinars please visit our Webinar Archive to view or download the following presentations:

• ‘A Professional Test Process Needs Professional People’ – Stephen Allott, ElectroMind, UK.
• ‘Using Lessons Learned to Challenge ERP Projects’ - Paul Gerrard, Gerrard Consulting, UK.

As the summer months tend to be a less hectic period for many, I would like to remind you once again of this year’s Student of the Year Award. We hope this opportunity will encourage and facilitate student involvement in the testing community.  Click here further details and deadline.

Also don’t forget that bringing your entire test team to EuroSTAR 2007 is easier then you think. Call us today on +353 91 514470 to discuss group discounts and find a package that suits your team!

If you didn’t make it to EuroSTAR 2006 in Manchester we are giving you the chance to view Power Point presentations synchronised with the actual recorded audio for many of last year's sessions.
Check out our sample presentation!

Synchronous Automation Testing

by Pushpa Reddy, EDS, UK.

Nowadays we commonly come across systems which use Windows UNIX-emulation. In this article I would like to share my experience automating such system using a functional testing tool and a test management tool.

Objectives
• To build a test automation pack which synchronises with the batch process in UNIX-emulation system and continues with the database validation in Windows.
• To build a test automation pack with support for cross-platform operating systems (UNIX and Windows XP), and database support (Oracle 9i, Sybase and SQL 2000).
• To use the automation pack and validation pack for regression test cycles.
