Webtau — ultimate end-to-end testing

Mykola is one of the main contributors to webtau framework. Short for web test automation.

The goal of the framework is to provide API, REPL and standalone CLI runner to test across multiple layers such as HTTP, Web UI, DB, CLI with a consistent API, reach reporting, and extensibility.

The framework has reach DSL to help you write things concisely and robustly.

In the talk, Mykola wants to show how to use webtau to test a game store app that has Web UI, REST API, GraphQL, and CLI interface. Webtau also has a new (recently released) Persona concept to simplify testing authorization scenarios. It can also be used to control more than one browser at a time to test things like web sockets.

Speaker will also show how to use tests to capture data for documentation purposes and generate documentation for an application under test.
