WHAT:

Automating Functional Testing  

Automated functional testing is crucial to the development of all but the most trivial Rich Internet Applications (RIA). A core suite of automated functional tests provides a solid foundation for rapidly iterating product releases by ensuring the introduction of each new feature doesn't inadvertently break pre-existing functionality. 

In this session, participants will explore how to use FlexMonkey -- a free and open source tool that automates functional testing of Flex and RIA applications -- to record, edit, playback and verify application functionality. Attendees also will see how FlexMonkey generates ready-to run ActionScript-based test scripts that can be extended to handle complex application usage scenarios. The session will also look at how FlexMonkey test suites can be run using FlexUnit, and how FoneMonkey (http://www.gorillalogic.com/fonemonkey) can be run with continuous integration tools. The session will conclude with a discussion of best practices for test automation that let developers get the maximum benefit from creating the minimum number of automated tests.
