Many of these collaborative approaches don’t rely on GUI-based automation tools, or they use these tools simply as convenient test drivers, without regard to what I’ve been calling the basic GUI regression paradigm. It was fascinating going around the table on the first day of LAWST, hearing automation success stories. In most cases, the most dramatic successes involved collaboration with the programming team, and didn’t involve traditional uses (if any use) of the GUI-based regression tools.
很多這種協作方法并不依賴基于GUI的自動化工具，或者說，人們只是用這些工具做測試驅動，并沒有考慮我提到的基于GUI的回歸測試規范。在LAWST會議的第一天，我們興高采烈地聽著自動化的成功案例。但這其中，很多重大的成功都涉及到與編程團隊的協作，而并沒有涉及到傳統的基于GUI回歸測試工具的使用。
We will probably explore collaborative test design and development in a later meeting of LAWST.
我們將在今后的LAWST會議中探討可協作的測試設計與開發。
8. Most code that is generated by a capture utility is unmaintainable and of no long term value. However, the capture utility can be useful when writing a test because it shows how the tool interprets a series of recent events. The script created by the capture tool can give you useful ideas for writing your own code. (Consensus)
大多數用截取工具生成的代碼是不可維護的，且沒有長期價值。但是，在編寫測試時，截取工具很有用，因為它能顯示工具是如何翻譯一系列最近發生事件的。而且，用截取工具生成的腳本能在你編寫代碼時給你有用的信息。(一致同意)
9. We don't use screen shots "at all" because they are a waste of time. (Actually, we mean that we hate using screen shots and use them only when necessary. We do find value in comparing small sections of the screen. And sometimes we have to compare screen shots, perhaps because we’re testing an owner-draw control. But to the extent possible, we should be comparing logical results, not bitmaps.) (Consensus)
我們根本不使用屏幕截圖，因為這是在浪費時間。(事實上，我們的意思是我們不喜歡使用屏幕截圖并只在必要時使用它。例如，我們發現它在對比屏幕小分區方面有一定價值。而且，我們有時不得不對比屏幕截圖，或許是因為我們正在測試一個自繪制控件。但是更可能的情況是，我們會對比邏輯結果，而不是位圖。)(一致同意)
10. Don't lose site of the testing in test automation. It is too easy to get trapped in writing scripts instead of looking for bugs. (Consensus)
不要在測試自動化時弄丟測試點。比起查找bug，在編寫腳本時犯糊涂真是太容易了。(一致同意)
Test Design
測試設計
11. Automating the easy stuff is probably not the right strategy. (Consensus)
對容易的東西進行自動化不是正確的策略。(一致同意)
