Hi,
I am new to Cucumber. I am a test engineer for an IP PBX. Has anyone
tried to use Cucumber to test such application? Some of the actions
that I need to perform are:
Given:
a) Configure parameters on a web site to change phone behavior
b) Configure parameters on a web site to change trunk behavior
c) Configure parameters on a web site to change system wide behavior
When:
a) Make a call from phone A to phone b
b) Press Transfer or Conference softkey
c) Configure Call Forward All from phone
Then:
a) Verify audio between two phones
b) Verify phone displays
c) Verify phone status prompt
I imagine I need to translate these steps into Ruby to see if they pass
or fail. I don’t have control over the code that developer write for
features, since I am just a tester. We write scripts in TCL to automate
our test cases.
Any pointers or suggestions are welcome.
Regards,
Robertico
Robertico,
Provided you can match the items you need to click, select, fill in and
alter with CSS (see assert_select:
http://blog.labnotes.org/2006/09/04/assert_select-cheat-sheet/)
selectors,
you can do all of these things

A while back I looked at using Twilio to do automated integration
testing a phone system. I started talking with some of their
engineers, but then the conversation just stopped. I didn’t know if
they got busy or thought I was crazy. 
You can setup twilio accounts, one as a receiver and one as the
dialer. I got a proof of concept working with Cucumber as the driving
force, but I haven’t worked on that application in a while. Perhaps
twilio has provided some tools for this by now.
This probably isn’t what you were looking for, but thought I’d share
the idea in case anyone has interest,
Regards,
Robertico
