Model-based testing (MBT) has emerged as a powerful strategy for maintaining high standards of quality in an efficient and systematic manner. MBT transforms the development process by allowing teams to derive scenarios from models of the system under test. These models serve as simplified, abstract versions of the application, making them invaluable for discussing system behaviors and planning tests. This approach not only reduces the manual effort involved in writing tests but also enhances coverage and consistency across testing scenarios.
Introducing Ranorex DesignWise
Ranorex DesignWise (DW) is a powerful tool designed to assist testers in creating these representative models efficiently. Whether you’re dealing with a straightforward application or a complex system with numerous integration points, DW provides the functionality to navigate through testing with confidence.
From Concept to Concrete: Practical Tips in DW
If you’re not currently taking advantage of this, our latest documentation gets into the practical aspects of model-based testing with Ranorex DesignWise:
- Gherkin Scripts for Agile Integration: Learn how to use DW Automate to work with acceptance criteria directly in our tool, streamlining the transition from user stories to testable models.
- Flow Diagrams and Decision Points: Understand how to translate process flow diagrams into actionable DW models, identifying key decision points and outcomes.
- State Transition Tables: Explore how to map out complex state transitions in DW, providing a clear pathway from initial conditions to expected outcomes based on user interactions.
Why Dive Into the Documentation?
The detailed tutorial we’ve prepared goes beyond the basics, offering insights into alternative modeling routes when direct parameters are elusive, and leveraging existing assets like previous test cases or API scripts. It’s designed to help testers get “unstuck,” providing creative solutions and shortcuts to get the most out of your testing strategy.
