How To Implement Test Automation in Health Care || Part 1: Website Testing || Encore Presentation
Manage episode 329573345 series 2925282
For the month of May, Vik and Jimmy are focusing on Healthcare Web, Mobile, EHR Testing and Test Automation. In this part 1 episode, they focus on healthcare web properties testing and test automation strategies and implementation.
Vik starts with the basics and defining testing and test automation and testing reality in healthcare. Testing is underrated and not something organizations think about but it should be a top priority, especially in these times when more and more online applications are used by patients and providers.
Typically regression testing is missing because there are never enough test / qa resources in an organization. So there is limited testing in reality. Performance testing is usually not done and could be a potential user satisfaction issue if the website cannot handle web traffic, for example, a COVID scheduling or registration web application.
Jimmy asks who is involved in website management at a healthcare organization. Vik explains that it is a combination of marketing and IT departments. Sometimes the roles are clear but usually, IT provides development resources, either in-house or outsourced. The marketing team in many cases is expected to do testing and user acceptance testing.
Vik then explains the different categories of testing: Continuous, Automated, and Live Testing. Continuous testing is where testing is utilized at every stage of development. When test script development is complete, then those scripts can be used for automated testing against hundreds of combinations of devices and browsers. Live testing is used by QA staff to test websites on real devices which are running in the cloud.
Vik and Jimmy then use a real-life example of a COVID registration web application to discuss the different types of web application testing.
Vik explains how the selenium test framework is utilized for test automation. Test scripts are written in any of the major programming languages: Java, Python, C#, Ruby, Kotlin, etc. He also explains how this automation works with a real device cloud to test the scripts against hundreds of combinations of devices and browsers.
Jimmy and Vik then talk about types of testing: Functional, Compatibility, and Performance testing.
They go into briefly about upcoming mobile and EHR testing in the next episodes of This Week in Health Tech.
