Appian ACD201 Exam - Topic 3 Question 8 Discussion

Actual exam question for Appian's ACD201 exam
Question #: 8
Topic #: 3
[All ACD201 Questions]

You're performing System Integration Testing on a client's application that integrates with an external system.

In this instance, you're testing the application's interactions with external integrations to ensure that data is being handled correctly between the two systems. However, this step has been done manually and is time-consuming.

What should you do to make this process more efficient?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: C

FitNesse for Appian is designed for automated functional testing of Appian workflows, including those that call external integrations. By building repeatable FitNesse test scripts that drive the end-to-end process, you can automatically verify that data is correctly sent to - and returned from - the external system each time, greatly reducing the manual effort of system-integration testing.

I feel like automating with Postman would save a lot of time, but I also remember that we need to ensure the test cases are well-defined to get accurate results.

I practiced a similar question where we had to choose between manual and automated testing tools. I think using Appian-Locust could help with performance, but I'm not sure if it's the best fit for this scenario.

I'm not entirely sure about FitNesse. I think it was mentioned as a tool for functional testing, but I can't recall how it specifically applies to integrations.

Option B with Appian-Locust could be really useful for testing the performance of the system integrations. Simulating multiple users interacting with the external systems simultaneously would help identify any bottlenecks or issues.
