Automated Regression Testing with Splinter and Jupyter

Talkat PyOhio 2018 · 2018-07-28..07-29· [testing, developer-experience]

Shows an end-to-end approach that actually runs against staging: Selenium + Python bindings wrapped by Splinter drive browser actions, tests live in pytest, Faker generates users, Stripe test cards exercise payments, and a Page Object Model plus helper functions produce reusable flows. A Jupyter notebook enables interactive exploratory runs and screenshots for visual checks. Notes real failures: flaky external services, OAuth and two‑factor, browser updates and A/B variance. Advises naming inputs, adding test modes/cheats, identifiable bot users, and running tests on every deploy.
