Title of Talk: Remotely Control Robots over the Internet: What Could Go Wrong?
Abstract
When Jason started the Selenium project, he’d frequently describe Selenium as "like a robot" that is trapped inside his computer. For the past 11+ years, he has been testing that metaphor by building real mechanical robots for testing apps and devices, pushing the definition of "end" in end-to-end testing. Lately, he’s been remotely controlling these robots over the internet, and learned some lessons I'd like to share. In this talk, Jason compares testing phones and tablets over the internet with a physical robot to traditional test automation approaches.
