Scripting For Testers: Using Ruby

Are you a tester who doesn't get enough time to actually test? Do you spend your time configuring machines, wrestling with bug-reporting systems, manually creating complex test data, and repeating the same manual tests you've run a hundred times before? Offload the drudgery to where it belongs and free yourself to do what you should be doing: thinking. All you need is a scripting language, this book and the dedication to work through the examples and exercises.
'Scripting For Testers' is divided into two parts: Talking the Talk and Walking the Walk. In the first, you'll learn the Ruby scripting language and the overall craft of scripting. In the second, you'll see how that knowledge can be applied to solve common testing problems. You'll also see how to cope with common mistakes, recover from blind alleys and how to recognise and fix your own scripting.
