In my talk, I want to share several approaches that help to improve automation testing in your company.

Do you want to spend less time developing UI automated tests? Maybe you want to reduce boilerplate code in UI tests? Or you think it is time to improve Page Object pattern that has been used for more than 8 years?

My first point will be about how the interface can help us to represent a new vision of Page Object and what benefits we could get from it.

The second - modern methods for coverage measuring are good only for development. However, the amount of useful information from coverage reports is extremely small.

It will a journey about autotest coverage. Imagine, that your project manager asks you - Do we have autotests for these buttons (forms, pages) or what autotests cover these Rest APIs with 'special' query parameters? I will show you two simple solutions that allow you to evaluate the coverage of tests written by test automation specialists.

a) API tests. There is a swagger and during his execution, we also collect a swagger. We count coverage as a diff of two swaggers. We can see what is covered, what is not and what data used.

b) Web tests. During the execution of tests, we collect information about elements, pages, and actions. As a result, we have such a format: page -> elements -> actions -> tests. All information representing in Chrome Plugin, that I will share with you.

And last, I am going to consider what cons have current TMS (QA time management systems) and what to do if you want to make an automation-first strategy on your project? Moreover, you look for one TMS for developers and QAs/or you want to save the Allure report of all autotests in one place?

Here you are! Allure Server has already released. I will overview the most important features and how to start using it from scratch.

If you have an interest in the above themes come to my talk.
