I am evaluating whether to use FitNesse with FitSharp for acceptance testing some web services.
In reading your book and searching online, I could not find a template or recommended approach to doing this. The following is a working idea on the approach. I would like to hear your feedback if there is a better means of doing this!
I’m currently interviewing lots of teams that have implemented acceptance testing for my new book. A majority of those interviewed so far have at some point shot themselves in the foot with UI test automation. After speaking to several people who are about to do exactly that at the Agile Acceptance Testing Days in Belgium a few weeks ago, I’d like to present what I consider a very good practice for how to do UI test automation efficiently.

I just wanted your opinion on SLIM as opposed to standard FIT/Fitnesse. Are there things that can only be done via the FIT/Fitnesse route that cannot be done via SLIM? So for acceptance tests and integration tests can I just use SLIM?
We want to exploit the BDD abilities of Scenario tables in SLIM. Ideally I would like to use SLIM to undertake all kinds of tests. I assume it has all the same capabilities? Are there any issues?
Here’s a video from a joint workshop that David Evans, Mike Scott and I organised yesterday at Skills Matter. We talked about strategies to get the most out of acceptance tests (especially with FitNesse) and organised a group workshop to review some good and bad examples of acceptance tests – taken from my Hands On Acceptance Testing workshop.
On March 2nd, Dave Evans and I are running a FitNesse clinic in central London starting at 6:30 PM. This is a unique opportunity to get your FitNesse tests reviewed for free and get help with writing and maintaining FitNesse tests and suites.
Dave and I will discuss some of the common pitfalls faced by teams in getting to grips with Fitnesse. We will show examples of good and bad acceptance tests, illustrating how different styles of fixtures lend themselves to different types of tests. We also highlight some of the features of Fitnesse that allow you to keep your tests expressive, useful and easy to maintain.
Make this interactive and bring your own test examples to be discussed, critiqued and improved upon in a group workshop.
