Abstract
You probably noticed that that the concern of maintainability was raised over and over again in Part I, but I still haven’t really explained how to achieve it. We also haven’t discussed how to start planning and building a new test automation solution from scratch. The following few chapters act as a tutorial in which we’ll start building a test automation solution for a real application. This chapter serves a few purposes:
-
1.
Provides an overview of the process and approach we’re about to take in the next chapters. This process is good not only for this tutorial but for any test automation project.
-
2.
Provides a short overview of the application that we’re about to write tests for.
-
3.
Provides a step-by-step guide for installing the prerequisites needed for the rest of this tutorial

The version that we use in the tutorial is at https://github.com/arnonax/mvcforum . The most up-to-date version is at https://github.com/YodasMyDad/mvcforum , but pay attention as I cannot guarantee that it will stay compatible with the book.
