I have been a tester, or led test groups, for over 15 years. Working in Windows, *nix and distributed environments I've come in as the first part of QA and built groups or joined existing groups. I like process and am an evangelist for process improvement. I also dabble in tool smithing, while I am not a great coder I stick with it and have built up a nice array of tools over the years in Perl, Ruby and PowerShell. I've also used a lot of tools and have been busy as well over in the SQAForums.com site for a number of years.

How to add screen shot for pass status in UI Automation If you have a screen shot for failure how did you get it? Can't you use the same tool for a pass as well as a for a failure? |

Is there an industry-standard term for choosing which tests to run? Considering the plethora of terms and overloading of defintions in Testing there is nothing I would call an "industry-standard" perhaps best practice would be a better term to use? |

Looking for a faulty application for training I've also used this one for discussions on coverage before, it's a nice break in a presentation and gives the people involved some ways to interact and use their brains. |

Looking for a faulty application for training That might be a good idea, one company I worked at had Developers given in code samples with comments for review. Performing a Test and taking notes and handing that in might be a good option to get a feel for the testing done, and why - as long as the notes stated what was going on. |

Any one have experience with frameworks using webdriver in Visual Studio? Very cool stuff, I will keep it in mind. I've already started down the path with SpecFlow and it's working for me so far. I'll check this out though, thanks very much for the recommendation! |

Looking for a faulty application for training I was thinking Parkcalc as I was reading the question, having your own is great but Parkcalc is a good public one. |

Any one have experience with frameworks using webdriver in Visual Studio? Very nice, I do like the ability to be able to kick off the build. I have VS Test Clients, I use them for my WebTests when I run load scenarios, I kick those off from my laptop on the VM and let it run on the weekend. Haven't looked into Lab Manager but that is a nice idea. Thanks! |

Testing an application under continuous development If you are running Agile/Kanban style should you already have TDD or some kind of Unit Testing in place? If not, this is definitely something for the retrospectives after sprints/releases, or maybe add this as a task to the board. |

Any one have experience with frameworks using webdriver in Visual Studio? This looks good, I've been thinking about BDD for these projects recently but hadn't really given it a lot of thought. This might be more useful and I think fit in better with the kind of testing I want to do. Thanks! |

Any one have experience with frameworks using webdriver in Visual Studio? I am using the current C# version of WebDriver, are you just running it as is within Visual Studio in NUnit or do you have something else around it? |

If you could only give one book to a tester to teach them about testing, what would it be? I have used this as an introduction to people just getting into QA, more because its readable and while many examples are "out there" a few seem to resonate with some people. |

Need to make WatiN work for us, or need to find a different tool Probably more to do with the automation needs for running tests against builds. |

What is the relation between development hours and testing hours? It kind of depends on the complexity of the application under test. |
