Answer Wiki:
What is the recommendation for a small IT consulting company developing applications with Access database, Visual Basic 2008 and/or Excel to use automated testing tools. Is it fairly easy and intuitive to pick the knowledge and apply the tools? Or do we have to develop an expert in testing tools?

Thank you, for initiating ands spearheading this discussion/forum.

I would like to know if there are any open source tools for automated testing of desktop applications (not web).

I manage a small group of developers and we are not doing automated testing by now, so any recommendation is welcome.

Thanks, Shilpa.

Are there any good automated testing tools for the AS300.
Especially something for regression testing of batch jobs.

Hi Shilpa,
Did we get answers to these questions ?

[...] Quite a few of you provided some questions you’d like ITKE blogger Shilpa to ask software testing expert James Christie. Check out the interview over at Today’s Big [...]


 

And can we continue asking questions?

How do you know if you’re testing the right elements? Can you spend 90% of your test-time while only testing 10% of what needs to be done?
