ScreenPlay - The Next Stage in Automated Acceptance Testing

Discover the ScreenPlay pattern for automated acceptance testing in this 54-minute Devoxx conference talk by John Smart and Jan Molak. Learn how to write clean, maintainable, and robust BDD-style tests using the innovative Screenplay approach, which is accessible even to testers new to automation. Witness a live coding demonstration using Serenity BDD to create automated tests that double as living documentation. Explore topics such as Lean Startup, requirements discovery, user-centered design, and hierarchical task analysis. Gain insights into implementing Serenity BDD, understanding its functionality, and leveraging its reporting capabilities. While the demo uses Java and Serenity BDD, the Screenplay pattern principles can be applied across various languages and frameworks. Dive into practical examples, including todo list tasks, one-way trip scenarios, and dynamic targets, to enhance your automated testing skills and improve your project's overall quality assurance process.
