MOM - October 2018 Chennaipy Meetup
The meetup took place at BOT VFX on October 27, 2018, from 4 PM to 6:30 PM.
Talk 1: Computer Vision in Test Automation using Robot Framework
Speaker: Vijayakumar
- Introduction to Testing: Various types of testing like Unit Testing and Integration Testing were explained.
- Demo of Integration Testing: Testing of the Orpat digital Alarm Clock using computer vision and the Robot Framework.
- Input Automation: Automated the input buttons (hour, minute, set, power off) of the clock using relay control connected via the serial port.
- Capturing LCD Output: Used a Document Camera to capture the LCD output, which was processed using ffmpeg and passed to the SSOCR library for reading the clock display.
- Robot Framework Test Suite: A Robot-based test suite was built to automate test execution.
- Live Hardware Demo: A live demo showcased the full hardware integration and testing process, making the experience amazing.
Talk 2: Scientific Computing using Python
Speaker: Ashok Govindarajan
- Simulation of Wireless Channel Attenuation: Explained the importance of simulation in scientific computing using scipy and numpy.
- Concepts Covered: Introduced concepts like probability distribution functions, particularly Poisson distribution, used for modeling waiting times in queues.
- Conclusion: Scientific computing = Statistics + Probability.
- Demo: Demonstrated a program that simulates wireless channel disturbances and the audience was introduced to numpy, scipy, and matplotlib.
The meetup ended with engaging discussions and an opportunity to interact with the speakers.
Meeting minutes contributed by Kamesh Jayachandran.
