2、icrosoft Cloud Services Advisory Group Leader of Beantown.NET INETA User Group,What is a Web Test?,Unit test for exercising and validating an ASP.NET application Collection of web requests Typically represents a scenario through the web app Probably not a great candidate for Test-First Development V

3、alidation Rules to check the returned web page Extraction Rules extract values from a returned page for use in other parts of the test Recorded or coded Can be data-driven Building block for Load Tests,Demo: Create a basic WebTest,What can you add to a web test?,ASP.NET UI Requests Requests to a web

4、 page WebService Requests Microsoft says “Request to a web service” In reality, more like a chunk of text passed to an HTTP address Comments Transactions A subset of the web tests requests grouped together by name Used to get timing information portions of the test Calls to other web tests New for V

5、S2008,What can you add to a request?,HTTP Header Add a header and a value URL Query String Parameter POST Parameter File Upload Parameter Dependent Request(s) Request embedded into the page like an image () request By default, dependent requests are parsed and issued at runtime according to the Resp

6、onse Adding a dependent request forces a certain request to be made,Parameterization,Use context values to drive your requests and validations Minimizes hard coding Web server addresses for requests can be parameterized Parameterized values are stored in the test context Reference the values using d

7、ouble “squiggle bracket” syntax variable_name Allows you to pass in values from load tests Essential for data-driven web tests,Data-Driven Web Tests,Use an external data source to run your web test OLE DB source CSV XML Helps simulate multiple users Enables much more thorough tests Easy to do more c

8、omplex tests,Code Demo,Create a basic data-driven web test,Data-Driven Test Gotchas / Fixes,Sources are challenging to modify File-based (CSV, XML) use hard-coded paths Database connection string can only be replaced not modified Problem: what if your devs dont all have the same working directories?

9、 Problem: paths different during automated builds Problem: database might be different during automated builds Fixes: Reference file-based sources through a network share localhostWebTestDatasources Option: Adjust your “hosts” file C:WindowsSystem32driversetchosts Reference databases using “Trusted

10、Connection=true”,Data-Driven Web Test Best Practices,You should always be able to use version control to re-create a point-in-time version of your app This includes your unit tests If your tests are data-driven then the data source needs to be version controlled, too! You should be able to compile y

11、our app and run ALL the unit tests from an automatic build (continuous integration),How to get test data without much effort,Create a “DB Pro” project Visual Studio Team System 2008 Database Edition defines the structure of the database Option #1: Use a Test Data Generation Plan Option #1a: Put the

12、test data into a database and script it to a CSV Option #1b: Reference the test data directly in the database Option #2: Use “Post Deploy” Scripts to populate the database Database is your data source Compile / Deploy the database You can populate test data tables the database using “Post-Deployment

13、 Scripts” as part of the database “build”,Test Data Regular Expressions,Names: A-Zaeioua-z* Email Addresses: a-z0-9*a-z0-9*.(com|org|net|co.uk) Phone Numbers: (0-93)-0-93-0-94,Code Demo,Generate test data with DBPro Use SQL Server Management Studio to export to CSV Put CSV on a share Modify data sou

14、rce to reference the share,Web Test Properties,Stop On Error If true, the test stops running at the first error Default value is false User Name, Password Credentials for the request Basic auth or Windows Integrated auth Description Proxy Address of a proxy server for this request PreAuthenticate Se

15、nd the authentication in the header True, False,Request Properties,Url Url for the request Follow Redirects Method GET or POST Parse Dependent Requests Look for things like tags, style sheets requests, and download them Encoding Character format for the request Default is UTF-8,More Request Properti

16、es,Cache Control True = use locally cached version (IEs “Automatic” setting) False = Always download Think Time (seconds) Emulate a human reading/consuming the web page Timeout (seconds) How long before this request should fail? Record Results Record performance counter data when run from a load tes

17、t,Still More Request Properties,Version Version of HTTP to send: 1.0 or 1.1 Expected HTTP Status Code Default value = 0 200, 300 = OK 400, 500 = Error Expected Response URL,Validation & Extraction Rules,Rules,Validation Rules Check values in the response Can be “Global” to the web test Per request E

18、xtraction Rules Pull values from the response Put them into the Test Context for use in other requests,“Out of the box” Validation Rules,Form Field Validate a field for an expected value Field = Find Text Find a string anywhere in the Response Maximum Request Time Execution time in milliseconds Requ

19、ired Tag Html tag exists n times in the response Required Attribute Value Html tag exists with the expected attributes and values Response URL URL (after redirects) is same as during the recorded test,“Out of the box” Extraction Rules,Pull values from the response Test Context Extract Attribute Valu

20、e Extract Form Field Extract HTTP Header Gets the value for an HTTP Header Extract Regular Expression Use a regex to pull a value from the response Extract Text Using StartsWith and EndsWith Extract Hidden Fields,“Out of the box” rules are underwhelming,Not a bad starting point Missing some function

21、ality Example: cant validate/extract Label values A little confusing (maybe Im not that smart.)Good news: you can easily create your own,The Html Agility Pack,Free .NET Library to help parse/consume HTML http:/ Why do you need it? HTML is hard to parse Usually isnt valid XML (unclosed tags, case sen

22、sitivity problems) Simplifies custom web test rule development Add a reference to HtmlAgilityPack.dll from your custom rule assembly,HtmlAgilityPack Basics,HtmlAgilityPack namespace HtmlDocument Primary point of contact for working with the HTML Load() & LoadHtml() methods GetElementById() Fetches a

23、n HtmlNode (aka. html tag) by its “id” attribute value HtmlNode An element (aka. html tag) in the html InnerText property Retrieve the contents of the tag with any xml markup stripped out InnerHtml property Retrieve the raw XML/HTML contents of the tag,Create a New Web Test Validation Rule,Must be i
