I have a client who have created a MS Access 2003 application that
replaces the UI for their black and green (b&g) system. The Access app
was largely generated from the layouts of the b&g screens and has over
1500 forms.Each form has basic generic editing and when that editing
is passed, the form controls contents are strung into a tab delimited
string and sent to a mainframe for processing. Once the mainframe has
processed the form contents, it responds with the next MS Access form
to load and a tab delimited list of the values to be put into the
form.
So far so good.
My problem is that they test this application by hand!!!! A full
regression test takes six testers the best part of six weeks!!! (And
thats a good regression test!)
So how can this be automated?
Does MS have tools to do this? Can you use MS Access macros? Is MS
Access 2003 supported by VS2005 Team Edition for SoftwareTesters?
Just how does the MS Access community of software developers run
regression tests?
