We discussed the current criteria for evaluating these testing applications and added more criteria. Everyone is expected to add to this section as homework.
Third Meeting 6/17/2011
Attendees: Michael Berger, Don Flanders, Judith McJohn, Sean Velury, Lisa Robinson
We went over 13 different functional testing tools and sifted them down to the final five we will be testing. We also assigned each person to test at least one of the applications.
The criteria we used to winnow down our test list included:
- Support for all MIT operating systems
- Support for all MIT browsers
- Ability to playback tests in a browser (instead of testing via browser emulation)
- Ability to record tests (to make test creation easier)
- Some sort of gui (versus code only framework)
- Decent documentation
- Some sort of name in the industry
