Testing Mnemonics (P1)
Gần đây mình nhận được 1 yêu cầu trong công việc kiểu đại khái mình sẽ xem xét và đánh giá automation testing của 1 project có thật sự tốt hay không 😦 Yêu cầu cũng khá thú vị và cũng đầy thử thách :’), trong quá trình đi tìm cách tốt nhất để đánh giá nó thì mình phát hiện ra 1 tàng kinh các về testing cũng khá hay (nó cũng giúp mình giải đáp được yêu cầu ở trên mình sẽ có bài viết chi tiết hơn về cách mình sử dụng CRUMBS để đánh giá về mô hình automation testing của 1 project ở phần sau) mà có lẽ mọi người nếu được nên áp dụng thử trong công việc của mình. Bài này mình sẽ liệt kê ra hết toàn bộ những Testing Mnemonics này.
Mnemonics là gì? Theo như định nghĩa của wikipedia thì có thể hiểu đại khái đó là 1 kỹ thuật để giúp mọi người có thể dễ nhớ về 1 cái gì đó hơn. Cụ thể hơn thì mọi người có thể trở về thời đi học, khi đó chắc mọi người từng trải qua việc phải học những công thức toán học, hóa học hay vật lý dài loằng ngoằng mà rất khó nhớ, lúc này thì thầy cô thường chỉ cho ta những cách để dễ nhớ, giống như ví dụ dưới đyaa là 1 cách để nhớ công thức về lượng giác – “sin Đi Học, cô Khóc Hoài, thôi Đừng Khóc, có Kẹo Đây”. Và dĩ nhiên ở testing cũng có hằng hà những câu đại loại như vậy để các bạn có thể ghi nhớ những ký thuật khác nhau trong testing để có thể làm những việc như thiết kế test cases, lên test plan, hoặc đánh giá về test automation trong 1 dự án có đang thực sự tốt hay không.
