Talk Description

In this talk, I would like to share with you our automation framework for testing a Windows desktop application, based on Python (PyWinAuto and Behave). Some of the topics that will be covered: our tools decision process, the libraries and packages we use, and the structure of our framework.

Also, I will show how the framework integrates with tools like:

  • Continuous Integration / Continuous Delivery (Jenkins)
  • Requirements & test case management (Jama)
  • Result aggregation & Visualisation (Elastic / Kibana)

By the end of this talk, you'll be able to:

  • Understand the considerations when selecting tools and frameworks for Windows desktop applications
  • Discover a possible structure for a test automation framework
  • Learn how an automation framework can integrate with other tool

Peet Michielsen

Lead systems verification engineer

I am a seasoned software tester with over 20 years of experience. I specialise in test automation, test management and continuous integration. I started my career in The Netherlands and later moved to Scotland. On both sides of the North Sea, I have worked on numerous projects in a wide range of industries. I'm currently working as a senior systems verification engineer at Optos in Dunfermline, Scotland. In my work I want to be challenged and am always on the lookout for the next problem to solve. And when not working, I like to explore the Scottish countryside and enjoy a good ale or whisky.
