Automated testing in the Power Platform: matching governance and upholding quality.

Everyone in IT knows testing is crucial, even in low-code setups. In this session, we'll look at how testing and governance go hand-in-hand and share some practical tips for testing Power Apps Canvas and Power Automate. The goal isn't to slow down production but to make sure everything meets standards and reduces risks.

We'll delve into governance testing principles and demonstrate how to embed testing throughout your development process across various testing levels. You’ll learn how to leverage tools like Monitor, Test Studio, Test Engine, and Playwright to enhance your testing strategy and streamline the overall workflow. Join us to discover how to create a robust testing framework that supports quality and compliance while maintaining efficiency in your development lifecycle.

Play it (w)right: automate your UI testing

Proper testing of a user interface is crucial, but can also be very time-consuming. And that’s no different when working with Power Platform solutions. But what if it could be faster, easier, and smarter?

In this session, you’ll learn how to automate UI testing using Playwright. I’ll show you how to record a simple test to automatically check the user interface of your Power App(s) in different scenario's.

In a live demo, I will walk you through:

- Creating and running tests across multiple browsers, devices, and screen sizes
- Capturing screenshots during tests to document test results
- Adding assertions to check whether your app behaves as expected
- The various ways of viewing your test results

We will also briefly take a look at integrating your UI tests into your CI/CD pipelines and how to use Playwright to check the accessibility of your app.

Flexibility meets functionality: get the most out-of-the-box for building dynamic forms

Let's get inspired by a real world example; adaptable to various scenarios. Everyone working with the Power Platform has probably got the request to create all sorts of forms to enter and validate data in it to support a business process. This presentation demonstrates a solution facilitating collaborative data review involving diverse stakeholders.

Explore the process of defining a Dataverse data model. Witness administrators seamlessly handling questions and customizing answer types within a Model Driven App and effectively managing the process. This background system transforms a Power Apps Canvas into a mature user-friendly dynamic form solution, allowing users to answer questions. Providing different stakeholders with extensive commenting functionalities inspired by the comment sections in Word and easier, more flexible, commenting by using Power Apps Cards in Microsoft Teams.

By the end of this session, attendees will have a solid understanding of how to make it possible to create a data review system using only out-of-the box functionalities within the Power Platform, being fully transparent and ready for audit trails.

Model-driven gaps ... How to fill these gaps with custom pages!

You've probably developed a model-driven app where you ran into limits and thought .... maybe I should have opted for a canvas app after all?

Model-driven apps are cool, but not always flexible enough to solve the whole problem, by using custom pages the possibilities have become almost endless. However, there are also challenges in using custom pages. When and how do you use these custom pages and how do you ensure a good and consistent user interface?

In this session I will use several examples and live demos to take you into the world of custom pages. How to create and use custom pages. How to add a good and consistent user interface that fits seamlessly to your model-driven app and how to build and use reusable components for your custom pages. Of course I will also share my experiences, tips and pitfalls with you during this session.

After this session you will have a good understanding of how to implement custom pages. How you can use library components, Creator Kit or out-of-the-box controls to create a nice and solid user interface.

Play it (w)right: automate your end-to-end tests in the Power Platform

Everyone knows software testing is crucial, even in low-code setups! Testing is often seen as the necessary evil, time-consuming work. It can be done differently: automate your tests in the Power Platform!

The goal isn't to slow down production but to make sure everything meets standards and reduces risks. So I'll take you into the world of automated testing in the Power Platform. This session is fully packed with live demos. I will share tips on how to use and extend the Power Apps Live monitor to test and monitor your apps. We will take a look at the Power Apps Test Studio and dive deep into automated end-to-end testing using Playwright.

By the end of the session, you will have learned about the differences between Power Apps Test Studio and Playwright and have a practical understanding of how to implement Playwright into your workflow, making your testing not only more efficient but also more robust.
