Writing a test is hard, automating it is harder and even tougher if you don’t know the interfaces you are working with, especially being new to the world of mainframe.
Galasa is an open source project that provides your automated tests with a set of Managers to allow you to focus on writing the tests, without needing to know the complexities going on underneath. From 3270 terminal interactions, to batch jobs, to Docker containers - Galasa can help you to test it. In this session we will explain what Galasa is and also provide a getting started guide.
