Title: Automation of complex test scenarios via Arquillian Spacelift

Abstract

Using an application is easy. Testing it should be easy as well. However, testing scenario has external dependencies that differ on various platforms, take long time to setup and often test scenario itself does not provide enough flexibility and re-usability.

In this session, you will learn from our failures. You’ll see how Arquillian Spacelift helps you to bring tools you need for the test execution and lets you to define complex test scenarios that can be easily executed in CI and reproduced locally with zero setup required on a local machine and why we consider this approach superior to our previous attempts. You will also have a chance to see a live demo for mobile application test. And you would be able to reproduce the test on your machine!

Do not spend time with configuration any more, skip right to writing test scenarios that run from both CI and local machines out of the box.
