The
introductory module is designed to familiarize testing professionals
with the basics of Rational's functional test automation tool, Rational
Robot. Students will be provided with hands-on instruction, from simple
record/playback techniques to advanced test scripting concepts.
Rational TestManager will be used to organize and process test results
to facilitate data analysis. The focus will be on applying Rational
Robot to resolve common automated testing challenges and to build
effective, versatile test scripts through best practices and savvy
usage of SQABasic code. At the conclusion of this module, principles
learned will be applied to a .NET-based sample application.
The advanced module is designed to give students a foundation in the
SQABasic scripting language and automated testing techniques. Learn to
create test scripts that are more robust, durable and easier to
maintain. This module includes lecture, workbook exercises and labs.
Intended Audience

principles taught in this course apply to all environments that Robot
supports. The course is designed primarily for Quality Assurance
professionals who will be using the automation tools.
The audience might also include QA
practitioners, managers, or team leaders who are responsible for
interacting with testers or who need to ensure that tools are being
implemented fully and appropriately.
