Overview of this book

Test Studio is Telerik's QA solution for automating your manual testing. With Test Studio's standalone edition or Visual Studio plugin, you can rule out the possibility of unreliable test execution and UI recognition, non indicative test results and reports, dispersed test repository, low code coverage, and unaffordable learning curves. With no code, this tool provides an intuitive IDE to effortlessly create maintainable tests. If you are looking for a solution to automate testing for your web, desktop, or mobile application, you can now benefit from Test Studio's rich automation features. "Learning Software Testing with Test Studio" will illustrate how to reliably automate test cases when it is time to relinquish manual testing habits. This book is all about less theory and more hands-on examples to present a complete manual and automated solution for your ASP .NET, WPF, Silverlight or iOS apps. This book gets you started directly with automation in Test Studio by exploiting its recording powers through series of concrete test cases built around the equipped applications. Each chapter starts with a typical automation problem which is then approached using Test Studio specialized automation features. You will learn how to create record and playback functional, performance, and load tests. Furthermore, we will see how to insert verification steps, logical constructs, convenient logging operations, and how to convert test scripts in order to implement keyword and data-driven architectures. To endow your tests with additional flexibility, each recorded automation feature will be approached from its coded perspective through the usage of the underlying ArtOfTest Test Studio automation library. This book also illustrates how Test Studio can automate pre-conditions, test result inputting, and the capturing of system states during manual test case execution in order to keep the tester's attention focused on the important details.

Manual tests


Let's store the steps for creating a file metadata through File Comparer inside a manual test. The folder that is going to contain the entire set of manual tests is called Manual Test Scripts; therefore, right-click on the FileComparer.Test project node, choose Create Folder from the context menu and rename it.

Test Studio has a dedicated template for manual testing, having its specialized toolkit and runner. The template will appear among the list of available templates when attempting to create a new test as follows:

Creating a manual test

Create a manual test under the recently added test. Enter Func-6_FileInfo_Create_Successful_Manual in the Test Name field and then click on OK. Enter the test edit mode by double-clicking on the test entry. The test initially looks as follows:

The pane to the left is the workspace for creating and editing the manual steps. It currently has the mouse focus. We will input the manual steps starting with launching the...
