Web walk on Wycliffe USA

Problem sponsored by the Software Development Team, Information Technology

Facilitated by Brent Dehamer

About

Wycliffe USA’s Software Development Team equips and serves Bible translation partners by building timely innovative software solutions and integrated systems. Software development includes ongoing enhancement of the Wycliffe.org website.

Objective

With the constant iterative and incremental change happening on the Wycliffe.org website, maintaining a positive user experience is important and difficult. When links break or buttons do not work; the user experience is not acceptable.

An automated testing effort has started, but the tests are currently programmed and changed on a case by case basis. This effort takes a lot of resource. To accelerate software development, we plan to create a program that can inventory website elements like hrefs, buttons, etc. and reflect those changes in the website tests.
