Selenium Unconference is a volunteer-run, non-profit event organized by members of the community that aims to bring together users and developers to share ideas, socialize and share their experience.

The second edition will continue our effort to build a comfortable place to talk about Selenium both for the newcomers to this field and also for those working now for several years with it. After the presentations we encourage people to share issues/problems they've met while working with Selenium, underlining the unconference concept.

Selenium

Selenium is an open-source project for testing web-based applications in any web browser on any operating system on any device desktop or mobile.

Speakers:

Dave Hunt works from home for Mozilla, where he assists teams to create automated tests for their projects - ranging from Mozilla's web properties to the Firefox web browser and Firefox OS for smart phones. Dave's talk will be an introduction to ZAP (Zed Attack Proxy) for web security testing, and a demonstration of how you can integrate it into an continuous integration system with automated functional tests using Selenium WebDriver, py.test and plugins.

Costin Ion is a Quality Engineer Developer working for Adobe Systems where he has been developing tools for automated testing and developer productivity since 2008. He has over 10 years of test engineering experience in different areas including software security, eCommerce, web services, analytics, mobile technologies. Costin's talk will be about how Adobe created their test automation solution for a key component of Digital Publishing Suite (http://www.adobe.com/products/digital-publishing-suite-enterprise.html). The presentation will cover topics from different areas like cross mobile platform automation, web automation practices and tools into mobile world, test approach for complex architectures, testing analytics in mobile context.

Report:

The event went really good. Around 70 showed up to the event. Alex was the event presenter and he spoke for a few minutes about the idea behind the event and introduced the speakers. The first presentation was held by Dave Hunt (Mozilla) describing Mozilla's security testing automated runs using Zap and Selenium. After that we took a small coffee break between the talks and people had a chance to discuss about the new stuff they learned form Dave's talk. Costin presented Adobe's test automation frame work for Digital Publishing mobile platforms. Really interesting setup there. To show the unconference side of the event we had a panel where we answered questions about Selenium and try to fix some of the issues that the audience had with the tool. We got a lot of positive feedback about the event and the talks. People where really interested on how they can improve their work flows and how to get involved in the projects.
