Helping operator’s QA engineer to test machine’s UI remotely is not the complete goal of ATTT. The goal is to perform these remote tests automatically. For that GB recommends using existing tool called SikuliX which enabled QA engineers to write Python scripts that look for the texts and images at the ATM’s screen and automatically clicks at them simulating the customer’s interaction. This enables operator not only simulate and test successful transactions at the ATM but also test negative scenarios like reaction of the machine on scanning an address that is banned, going over the limits and all other scenarios that QA engineer didn’t have time to test when he was doing all tests manually.
GB also delivers (to be publicly available in November 2024) his own set of the tests that operator can start to build on.
