This workshop serves 2 purposes

  1. For me to give back to the testing world and help us all upskill 🚀
  2. For us all to help a greater cause than ourselves 🌍

ABOUT CHARITY

Code.org® is a nonprofit dedicated to expanding access to computer science in schools and increasing participation by young women and students from other underrepresented groups. Their vision is that every student in every school has the opportunity to learn computer science as part of their core K-12 education. The leading provider of K-12 computer science curriculum in the largest school districts in the United States, Code.org also created the annual Hour of Code campaign, which has engaged more than 15% of all students in the world.

Working together, we can reduce the digital divide!

With the Testing for Good event, we're helping to give every student the opportunity to learn computer science — online and in schools where Code.org will establish permanent courses and train teachers. For every dollar you donate, one child will be introduced to computer science.

To make your donations go even further, Sauce Labs will match up to $2,500.

👇👇👇

Please donate whatever you feel appropriate. 100% of the donations go to the cause.

Setup

Sign up for account

  1. Free Sauce account
  2. Request Demo Secreener account. !You must request this at least a week before the workshop as it's a manual process to add users.

Get your username and api key

  1. Save your Sauce Labs Username and Access Key by going to the Sauce Labs user settings page
  2. Save your Screener API Key by going to the API key page in your Screener settings
    1. Need to sign up for demo account before

Local environment setup

💻Join Slack #help-desk for tech support

Fork then clone the repo

  1. Sign up for a free GitHub account
  2. Fork this repository
  • Make sure you are logged into GitHub
  • Click the Fork in the upper right of the GitHub.
  1. Clone your fork of the repository to your machine. Must have Git installed
git clone URL_OF_YOUR_FORK

Setup environment variables on your system

Navigate to the directory of where you cloned your repo

cd YOUR_FORK_DIR/automation-best-practices/workshop

Run sanity tests

mvn test -Dtest=SanityTest -X

Click here to see an example console output. 
    Tests run: 2, Failures: 0, Errors: 0, Skipped: 0, Time elapsed: 54.305 sec

✅👏Environment setup is complete if tests passed

If you weren't successful at setting up you local env, then use the Gitpod approach👇

Add static code analysis

ℹ️ Optional Bonus

Gitpod setup

💻Join Slack #help-desk for tech support

ℹ️  Gitpod lets you run an entire Dev environment from a browser! You can use this approach if you don't know how to setup a local Java environment.

  1. Sign up for a free GitHub account

  2. Fork this repository

    • Make sure you are logged into GitHub
    • Click the fork in the upper right of GitHub
    • Select your username as the location to fork the repo

  3. In the browser address bar, prepend the GitHub url (https://github.com/USERNAME/automation-best-practices-java) with https://gitpod.io/#

  4. Once the Gitpod.io URL is loaded, you will need to sign in with the GitHub account you created earlier

  5. Once the development environment is loaded, you should see 'Ready to test!' in the Terminal window in the lower portion of the window, run the following commands in that Terminal to set your SAUCE_USERNAME, SAUCE_ACCESS_KEY, and SCREENER_API_KEY:

ℹ️  You can get your Sauce Labs Username and Access Key by going to the Sauce Labs user settings page

ℹ️  You can get your Screener API Key by going to the API key page in your Screener settings

eval $(gp env -e SAUCE_USERNAME=<sauce_username>)
eval $(gp env -e SAUCE_ACCESS_KEY=<sauce_access_key>)
eval $(gp env -e SCREENER_API_KEY=<screener_api_key>)

Replace <sauce_username>, <sauce_access_key>, and <screener_api_key> with your credentials

Once you have run those 3 commands, you can run the following commands to test your environment variables:

echo $SAUCE_USERNAME
echo $SAUCE_ACCESS_KEY
echo $SCREENER_API_KEY

Run sanity tests

mvn test -Dtest=SanityTest -X
