As a Quality Assurance technician at Concentric Sky, I use a lot of tools to make me better, stronger, faster. Perhaps the most powerful tool is Selenium, a suite of products that records web activity and plays it back faster than the human hand can click.
I think about software Quality Assurance as, in essence, two big sides of one coin. Make sure the product does what it’s supposed to do, and make sure it doesn’t do things it’s not supposed to do. The first side is really pretty straightforward, and tends to say the same through the life of the product. Making the product do what it’s supposed to do is the realm of documentation, test cases and test plans. Order, structure, repetition. That’s where Selenium beats the heck out of a human tester.
