Why do test automation implementations often result in budget and schedule overruns and often diverge from the test objectives they were meant to support? Because test automation is a form of software developmentbut rarely is treated as such. Lee Barnes discusses how the application of software development practices, specifically agile principles, to test automation efforts helps ensure a reliable and maintainable solution that is closely aligned with both testing AND business objectives. Benefits of incorporating agile practices in test automation development include: increased customer involvement and visibility, scope flexibility, and budget and schedule control. Lee presents techniques for mapping agile processes, artifacts, and tools to test automation development projects. Discussion will cover topics of agile components including user stories, task board, backlog, and definition of done in a test automation context. In addition, Lee will examine the evolution of test automation artifacts over the course of several sprints. Take back techniques and examples for applying agile development principles to test automation efforts.

This document provides an agenda for a supplier day meeting between Magna Donnelly and DaimlerChrysler. The agenda includes presentations on the voice of the customer from DaimlerChrysler, quality metrics and improvements at the Lowell plant, and Magna Donnelly's supply base expectations. It also includes time for questions and closing remarks. Supporting documents provide additional details on quality improvement plans, processes, and strategies being implemented at the Lowell plant to address quality issues, including fast response, control of non-conforming product, risk reduction, standardized operator training, and lessons learned.
Here are the calculations for an OEE goal of 80% and 85%:
OEE Goal of 80%:
- Good Production Hours Needed: 96 hrs
- Scheduled Hours: 96/0.8 = 120 hrs
- Loss Hours: 120 - 96 = 24 hrs
OEE Goal of 85%:
- Good Production Hours Needed: 96 hrs
- Scheduled Hours: 96/0.85 = 112.5 hrs ~= 112 hrs
- Loss Hours: 112 - 96 = 16 hrs
So at an OEE of 80%, the loss hours would be 24 hrs. At an OEE of 85%, the loss hours would be 16 hrs.
With most organizations now using agile software development methodologies, the software development focus has changed to deliver faster releasesand this affects the way we test within the sprint. We largely develop applications using cloud and mobile technologies with short release cycles. Our challenges include frequent changes in requirements, the addition of incremental features to the product, and release at any point of time. Ganesh Iyer has found that continuous testing can seamlessly address most of these challenges. Continuous testing is the ability to run tests continuously in a particular environment, irrespective of product upgrades and dependent third-party systems. Ganesh highlights some continuous test approaches in practice including 24/7 reliability testing and continuous integration. Key takeaways include understanding the importance of endurance testing, practical considerations when we perform such durability testing, framework design elements for running tests continuously, and finallywhat to look for in the results.

In December 2023 we started a series of three webinars about the theme "asset management enabling technologies". In these webinars, we discuss the different aspects of connectivity and the enabling technologies, which in our opinion is crucial for the successful operation of your assets.
In this third webinar, Johan Ferket and Pieter Wielemaker will focus on three important items in the Asset Performance Management (APM) journey: transformational planning, tool and software evaluation and performance tracking.
They will provide answer to the questions:
- What are the main stage gates in the APM Roadmap?
- Which tooling and software are best suited for your situation: how to evaluate and choose?
- How to close the loop: APM performance tracking?
Root Cause Analysis (RCA) is a structured process that identifies the underlying causes of undesirable events. It can be used for both single and multidisciplinary cases. The RCA process involves data collection, identifying the immediate causes and basic causes of failures, and determining where lack of control contributed. Common investigation techniques include STEP, FMEA, and fault tree analysis. Laboratory analysis of failed parts is also important for identifying causes like material defects, corrosion, or overloading. Identifying root causes allows corrective actions to be implemented to prevent future recurrence.
Root Cause Analysis (RCA) is a structured process that identifies the underlying causes of undesirable events. It can be used for both single and multidisciplinary cases. The RCA process involves data collection, identifying the immediate causes and basic causes of failures, and determining the lack of controls that allowed the failure to occur. Conducting detailed analysis of failed parts through methods like STEP, FMEA, and FTA allows investigators to identify issues like material defects, improper operation, or inadequate maintenance as the root causes of failures. Addressing these root causes helps improve equipment reliability and availability while reducing maintenance costs and downtime.

resulting in more resources for
each job
≒ Equipment Unavailable
Breakdowns impacting on
planned works
10. Why Loss Elimination
10
≒ WM metrics have remained flat over 3 year period
≒ Primary reasons for not completing planned work= Breakdowns??
≒ To stop breakdowns we need to solve root causes
≒ To determine root causes we need to investigate
≒ We cant & shouldnt investigate everything
≒ What to investigate (need to pick our targets)
11. Why Loss Elimination
11
For a Loss Elimination program to be effective it must
include;
≒Process for
≒ Initiating (TARP)
≒ Investigating (RCA2Go息)
≒ Managing of Actions
≒Training & support (coaching)
≒Metrics to report on performance
12. The Journey
12
The two definitive characteristics of higher level organisations;
≒ Continuous Improvement Eliminate Defects
≒ Organisational Learning Sharing experiences, knowledge expertise and practices
13. TARP Trigger & Action Response Plan
13
Essential Elements
≒ A way of ranking losses so we know what events to investigate
≒ A way of deciding scale of investigation
≒ 5Whys (can be done by individuals or small teams)
≒ RCA (more complex, run by Engineers)
≒ Allocating who is responsible and who is to be informed
≒ Identifying type, detail and timeliness of output

16. Process for investigating
16
≒ Use a standard investigation process RCArt
≒ Paint by Numbers approach
≒ Standardised format easy to share
17. Warning Signs
≒ Too many Actions
≒ Actions not being effective
≒ Actions not being completed
Actions can range from;
≒ Change of PM task, detail, frequency
≒ Increase workforce skills, training, advanced tooling
≒ Use of ConMon for a new type of task
≒ Install additional detection equipment, Alarms
≒ Modify Equipment/ New Equipment
Prioritise Actions
≒ Risk (probability of success)
≒ Timeliness

22. The hardest part;
≒ Continued Leadership & Coaching
≒ Site Champions
≒ Promotion of activities via Monthly RCA report
≒ Mirroring KPIs against plant performance
≒ If we are doing the right things in RCA, then the benefits will become apparent
Sustaining the process
22
25. What does a successful RCA program look like?
≒ Proactive rather than reactive use
≒ Understood & Supported by Managers
≒ Targeted at the right type of investigations (the ones that make a difference)
≒ Cross functional involvement (not just Maintenance)
≒ Timely completion of investigations
≒ Active management of actions (we do what we say we will do)
RCA Success
