On the agile-testing list, I've been gathering info WRT acceptance=20
tests for this and comparing WatiR, WatiN, Selenium, etc...
So now I've noticed that our WatiN tests are very slow. (We have some=20
NUnitAsp tests too which are worse.) We have 100s+ tests in FitNesse=20
that take about 80s to run. And <10 in WatiN that take about 80s to=20
run.
So I'm theorizing that Fit tests are really going to be the stronger=20
set. It'll be 1 layer down, but as long as we do some sort of MVC/MVP=20
or simple command pattern, we only won't be testing the client-side=20
validation. I'm debating whether or not those tests are even worth=20
writing? Especially if for example, we submit some form and the server=20
side validates fields as well.=20=20
Furthermore, for reuse of the validation logic, I'm leaning towards=20
less JavaScript in the page for AJAX calls that get their results from=20
the server.
Thoughts?
Comments?
