What readers are saying about

Scripted GUI Testing with Ruby

If you care about your application, you care about testing. And if you

have an application with a user interface, you should care about test-

ing it. This book gives you what you need to start testing in an agile

manner, using a modern programming language and excellent tech-

niques. This book covers a wide range of GUI testing and should be in

every developer’s bookshelf.

JRuby Core Developer, ThoughtWorks

This book provides the most thorough and enjoyable introduction

to GUI testing in Ruby (or any language, for that matter) I’ve yet to

encounter. It was not only technically enlightening but a pleasure to

read—something few technical books achieve. I am tempted to buy

copies for every QA tester I know—and probably a lot of developers,

too!

Thomas Lockney

Software Developer

Ian Dees brings the joy of Ruby to the task of GUI testing, allowing

you to “let the computers and the people each do what they’re good

at.” Testers and nontesters alike will ﬁnd value in his discussions of

automating GUI actions to both save time and improve quality.

David Mullet

Scripted GUI Testing with Ruby is a must-read for small to medium-

sized development shops building any kind of GUI application.

Although aimed at the QA segment, the book’s readability and well-

considered refactorings will be a beneﬁt to developers. More impor-

tant, by providing a concrete soup-to-nuts introduction to RSpec, it

shows a path bridging that crucial gap between product designers

and implementors. Ian shows us that a QA’s job—long-considered

monotonous and akin to visiting the dentist—can in fact bring clar-

ity of understanding to all members of a project. And even better,

time and money that would have been wasted on manual click-and-

pray testing can now be dedicated to truly creative software destruc-

tion, leaving the boring bits to the robots. For that reason alone, QAs,

developers, and project managers need to pick up this book so they

can understand what QA and communication are really about.

Scripted GUI Testing with Ruby really is unique in the market, and

I’m glad to see it published. Like Ian, I wish I’d had this in my hands

four years ago. After reading and working through Scripted GUI Test-

ing with Ruby , I have several new toolsets in my testing arsenal. I had

heard a bit about some of the tools Ian covers in this book, but now

I know how they’ll apply to my work and, thanks to the examples,

exactly how to use them.
