Description

Welcome to this week's episode of the Test Guild Automation podcast. Our featured expert is Simon Hofmann, the creator of nut.js, a Node.js Desktop Automation Testing framework that allows you to program your mouse and keyboard with JavaScript or TypeScript. Have you ever been bogged down with repetitive tasks you wish to automate? Nut.js may be the solution for you! Its open-source Node.js cross-platform desktop automation can automate mouse movement and give you full control over your cursor. You can move, click, or drag it wherever you need, saving time and effort. But that's not all! One of the critical components of visual testing or automation is the ability to search for images and text on-screen. Nut.js provides plugins to do just that, allowing you to perform on-screen searches efficiently. Are you interested in improving your tests or workflows? With nut.js, you can retrieve information about open windows, giving you the power to make your tests more effective. And if that's not enough, nut.js also allows you to automate keyboard input to press single keys or type pages of text quickly. Whether you're using JavaScript or TypeScript, nut.js can handle it all. So if you're looking for a desktop automation framework that can save you time and effort, look no further than nut.js. Tune in to this episode to learn more about its features and how it can benefit you! This week's sponsor is TestGuild. Let's talk if you're in the DevOps automation/software testing space and want to offer real-world value/solutions that can improve the skills or solve a problem for the Guild community.

TestTalks covers news found in the testing space, reviews books about automation and speaks with some of the thought leaders in the test automation field. We’ll aim to interview some of today’s most successful and inspiring software engineers and test automation thought leaders. During the interviews, the spotlighted engineer will tell us about his or her testing experience, sharing their successes and failures as well as which testing techniques are working for them right now. We’ll all learn more about testing through these talks — hence the name TestTalks.
