FluentAutomation

I’m going to start keeping the documentation with our source on GH now, so this means we will be hosting our documentation with GitHub Pages. Docs for v2 are available here: http://stirno.github.com/FluentAutomation/

A few days ago we pushed Fluent Automation v2 to NuGet, its been in our master branch on GitHub for awhile now but we’ve continued testing and felt it was ready for some more widespread use. There are several breaking changes from v1 to v2, but we’ve streamlined our model considerably so we can hopefully [...]

Just released to NuGet, the latest code including all the .NET client side bits for RemoteCommand API. This is the first big push to NuGet in months and I wanted to make sure the documentation now available matched what people were likely to be using. This will likely be the last release using the default [...]

Finally, after much delay, I’ve put together a first draft of the .NET API documentation and some setup instructions. Hopefully this will help people get comfortable with Fluent more quickly. I included some advanced configuration details where ... [More] possible. The next step will be to include more code samples, examples and RemoteCommand API examples for each [...] [Less]

So we’ve talked about it before here.. But now I’m ready to call it ‘released’ and I want to give this some more exposure because I think it will serve as the main testing method for most users very soon. Scalability of UI automation tests is a big concern for development teams. The primary point [...]

Time for an update! It’s been a while but Brandon and I are back actively developing after the holidays, and we have some fun stuff coming up for Fluent Automation. I just finished a working draft of the Expect Builder for the Fluent Automation Recorder (read the Recorder introduction post for more information), which finally lets [...]

I’ve received a few emails wondering about progress of the Fluent API. Just throwing this out there so you all know, I am still working on it regularly. It has been a very busy few weeks to prepare for some vacation time I’m taking now with family in town. Paul has also been traveling the [...]

I’ve been continuing work on making the RemoteCommand API awesome, including better debugging a test in progress against a remote box, proper error handling and integrating into your Continuous Integration processes. This has driven some questions as ... [More] to where we should focus first as far as verifying compatibility with HOW people are using Fluent Automation. [...] [Less]

In a previous post, Brandon introduced the RemoteCommand API, a REST endpoint that accepts and runs Fluent Automation tests serialised into JSON. Having a portable format for tests has let us start to branch the project out into a few interesting tools outside the .NET world. A tool I’ve been developing is the Fluent Automation [...]

I’ve mentioned the RemoteCommand API several times recently in posts, even on the Coming Soon portion of the site. I think its time I explain what it is, why it exists and why I’m excited about it. What The RemoteCommand bits essentially expose a service endpoint that receives instructions in the form of a JSON [...]
