The course from Yandex is about what every developer who wants to make large systems should know. Buzzword DevOps and more
The whole routine that can be given to robots must be given to robots. Large systems are impossible without this. In the development and testing, there are a lot of similar tasks that do not require high qualifications, but take a lot of time. A person who knows how to provide development, testing and deployment is a rare specialist and cannot be scaled by the number of pages.
In Yandex, the tester is impossible without automation. We even develop an experimental robot that is able to take on functional testing. At some point, we realized that not many people realize how many opportunities there are now to work, not for 12 hours, but for the head. Having gathered all our experience in testing and deployment, we opened the School of Automation of Development Processes in the St. Petersburg office of Yandex. We have a school where everyone who writes code can get a basic set of knowledge on how to build, run and maintain a service in production so that it is inexpensive.
The course opens my lecture on why automate the development process. From it you will get an idea of what my colleagues will tell.
Now the classes are over, and, as promised , we are posting lecture notes, which are interspersed with master classes, for everyone. It is clear that our experience and knowledge are not 42, but we hope that they will benefit you.
Marat Mavlyutov is engaged in the automation of testing of that part of Yandex, the reliable operation of which directly affects the company's revenue - advertising technologies.
Ivan vaniaPooh Krutov deals with issues related to the use of cloud technologies for testing purposes. He is one of the developers of the Allure Framework project . It serves to receive reports on the passage of autotests. Reports display information in an understandable way for both testers and project managers. You can attach screenshots, logs and any other files to them. Allure allows you to break complex tests into steps, include information about test parameters and test environment.
Denis dchr Chernilevsky directs the work of the team that is engaged in testing the display advertising system and Yandex.Browser. Denis has experience in Internet services and software products. He has been with Yandex since 2012, and before that, for four years he was first an engineer, and then a manager at Parallels.

Source Code Storage
Marat Mavlyutov is engaged in the automation of testing of that part of Yandex, the reliable operation of which directly affects the company's revenue - advertising technologies.
In the lecture, Marat will tell you why source code storage systems are generally needed, their history and will pay special attention to the story about Git and Github.
Automate the assembly of a Java project
Ivan vaniaPooh Krutov deals with issues related to the use of cloud technologies for testing purposes. He is one of the developers of the Allure Framework project . It serves to receive reports on the passage of autotests. Reports display information in an understandable way for both testers and project managers. You can attach screenshots, logs and any other files to them. Allure allows you to break complex tests into steps, include information about test parameters and test environment.
From the lecture you will learn why industrial development is impossible without the use of assembly tools, hear a brief history of their development. Ivan will talk about the most popular build tools for the Java platform and some other programming languages, talk about the main features of Maven.
Continuous Integration Tools
Denis dchr Chernilevsky directs the work of the team that is engaged in testing the display advertising system and Yandex.Browser. Denis has experience in Internet services and software products. He has been with Yandex since 2012, and before that, for four years he was first an engineer, and then a manager at Parallels.
The lecture is devoted to the basics of automation of various processes in software development. It is about what and what can be automated, what tools should be used for this. Several of the most popular CI systems are presented, on the basis of which all further automation can be built.
Test Automation
I am giving this lecture. I’ve been in Yandex for six years.
This lecture details the integration, system and unit tests, as well as their negative and positive sides.
Test Automation Framework
Leonid leonsabr Rudenko leads the team that is responsible for automating testing of search interfaces. He himself graduated from the physics department of St. Petersburg State University, came to Yandex in 2010 as an intern, and now he is a leading engineer.
Everyone wants to write tests quickly and clearly, it's easy to run them and analyze the results. Lenya will tell you what tools allow you to set up the process of creating autotests and what to choose so as not to miscalculate? In the lecture, you will get acquainted with the xUnit ideology, as well as the Java frameworks JUnit and TestNG.
