These days each product reaching market is labelled as top quality - no matter if it`s a toy or a car or an application. Everyone talk about quality, quality is everywhere and at the same time quality by nature is a tricky thing to define and measure. To give you an example, imagine a two new brand cars from a two different car manufacturers like for example BMW and Fiat. Dealers of both brands will tell you that their cars are top quality and in fact that is true! The problem starts when you try to understand what top quality means for both car manufacturers - what are their standards of quality. What Fiat can consider as top quality might be completely not acceptable for BMW. From client perspective what really important is to understand how to measure quality in a standards driven way. As an example let's compare a European car safety performance assessment rating for both brands (NCAP is rated from 1 to 5 stars where 5 stars is given for most safety cars). In this rating ca

Automated coded UI testing become very popular in the past few years. Its allow developers to create tests which are executed directly on UI level and simulate user actions. At the same time HTML5 become a standard for creating universal modern applications which can be hosts in a native browser controls. New model of creating applications brings a new challenges in the testing fields that's why in this post I want to present my solution (it takes me almost two days to get this working!) which is first step in the process of creation an end-to-end test automation for mobile applications. My solution is prototype of a .NET console application which can be use to control Android emulator and simulate user standard operation like installing app, typing and rotating. This prototype can be use as ' emulator manager ' which controls device emulator on which tests are performed - for example by using   Selenium . As initial requirements to run the project: 1) Install the
