Sekolah dan Matinya Kreatifitas

Ada sebuah anekdot

Orang Indonesia dan orang India dengan skill dan keterampilan yang sama bekerja di suatu perusahaan rintisan di amerika.

Suatu ketika saat dilakukan sprint planning, product manager bertanya,

“We’ll deal with a big project, this project will bring our company great fortune, who wants to be the lead engineer?”

Kemudian engineer dari India dengan antusias dan penuh percaya diri mengacungkan tangan sambil setengah berteriak,

“I can do this, give me a chance and I will successfully lead our team.”

Dan tahukah kalian apa yang dilakukan software engineer dari Indonesia? dia duduk di kursi terjauh sambil menggerutu,

“Kalau cuma gitu aja aku juga bisa, tapi aku mending diam saja.”

Pertanyaanya,

Kenapa hanya memilih diam?

Kenapa tidak mengajukan diri?

Kenapa tidak menunjukan bahwa dirinya memiliki skill yang bisa diunggulkan?

Tahun ini adalah tahun pertama anak kedua saya masuk Taman kanak-kanak. Dan tahukah apa yang dipelajari di hari-hari pertamanya?

Ya betul!! TEPUK DIAM!!

Begini liriknya

Tepuk Diam

Prok 3X Bila aku

Prok3 X Sudah tepuk

Prok 3X maka aku

Prok 3X harus diam

DIAM

One, two, three, four Yes DIAM

Apakah memang harus begitu? Apakah untuk memperoleh pendidikan harus ditukar dengan kemampuan mengutarakan sesuatu? Padahal nantinya di masyarakat maupun dunia kerja kita dituntut untuk dapat

SPEAK UP

Anak saya juga memiliki kebiasaan menulis nama dirinya dengan membubuhkan tanda “love” di atas huruf “i” sebagai ganti tanda titik. Menurut saya, itu manis sekali dan sangat kreatif.

Suatu hari saya melihat dia menulis nama dengan titik yang normal. Saya pun terheran dan bertanya. “Biasanya kamu nulis pakai tanda love kok sekarang nggak lagi?”. Dan jawabanya adalah,

“Nggak boleh sama bu guru.”

“Kok bisa?”

“Nggak sopan katanya.”

“Ya itu kan di sekolah, kalau nulis di rumah ya gapapa to.”

“Tetep ga boleh.”

“Kan kalau di rumah boleh sama papah.”

“Kan bu guru yang bener.”

Ini bagaimana konsepnya?

Kenapa hal-hal kreatif dilarang?

Misal tidak boleh berkreasi untuk catatan di buku resmi atau tugas, kan bilang aja

“untuk konteks tugas tidak boleh, tapi kalau untuk kreasi boleh”

Mengapa kreativitas anak dihambat?

Mengapa potensi dibatasi justru oleh orang yang seharusnya mendorong anak menuju potensi terbaiknya?

Bagaimana bisa anak saat dewasa nanti dituntut untuk adding value jika sekedar menambahkan keindahan saja dilarang?

Mengapa hanya kreasi yang diajarkan dari sekolah yang diperbolehkan sedangkan yang muncul dari anak dilarang?

Kenapa model pembelajaran seperti ini masih exist bahkan di tahun 2022? Ketika kurikulum merdeka sedang gencar-gencarnya?

Tidak berhenti di situ saja, pembungkaman juga menanti anak-anak setelah mereka nanti beranjak dewasa. Contohnya: saya merasa ragu-ragu apakah aman menulis seperti ini.

Sebuah catatan dari seorang ayah.

AI-Generated Article: Is this the death of creative writing?

Disclaimer: This article is created by AI. Not because I’m being lazy and don’t want to make an original story. I am publishing this just to show how fascinated I’m with AI. It can take over every aspect of human creativity.

After this point, it is AI generated article.

Artificial intelligence is a growing technology that has the power to change many aspects of daily life. Many believe this technology can replace human writers, including journalists and creative writers. However, others believe AI cannot replace human writers because it is incapable of writing well. This debate is important because it helps us to understand the effects of artificial intelligence on the literary world. Ultimately, AIs ability to write shows that it can become an essential part of the literary world.

One reason why artificial intelligence can’t replace human writers is that it can’t write about emotional subjects as well as humans can. AI is good at writing about facts and figures, but it isn’t as adept at writing about emotional stories. This means that AI wouldn’t be able to craft the same types of stories that humans can. In some ways, AI can only mimic what humans already do well; it can’t create unique stories that humans haven’t already written. In that sense, AI is less capable of writing than humans are.

Although artificial intelligence can’t replace human writers, it can help create more diverse content. AI is capable of writing in many different genres and formats. For example, AI can write in poetry and dramatic prose just like humans can. It’s also capable of writing in different genres that humans aren’t skilled enough to write in. For example, AI can write in sci-fi, a genre that only humans are capable of writing about. This means that AI is capable of writing about subjects that humans aren’t skilled enough to write about. In this sense, AI can create a more diverse range of content than human writers.

AI also has a more accurate understanding of human emotion than humans do. This means that AI will be better at writing about certain emotions and concepts than humans will be. For example, AI will be better at writing about loss and grief than humans will be because it has more data to work with and has a more accurate understanding of human emotion. In this sense, AI helps create better stories than human writers do.

On the other hand, some people feel uncomfortable with artificial intelligence writing emotional content because they feel it undermines their work. They also feel this undermines their personal relationships with other people they know. These people believe that the emotional content created by AI is less than genuine because they feel it’s not based on reality or they’re being manipulated by the creator. In their eyes, it’s dishonest and lessens their credibility as writers.

Additionally, some believe that humans are still better writers than AI because it can only write about facts and figures. Humans are still better at creating emotional content, so it’s still not good enough to replace human writers in this area. In essence, it would only be able to write about one thing: facts and figures; which would turn out to be very boring for readers!

Overall, although artificial intelligence can’t replace human writers, it can help create more diverse content. It’s capable of writing in many different genres and formats and has a more accurate understanding of human emotion than humans do. The creator would be able to create better stories than humans because it understands human emotion so well. This technology shows us that there is no limit to what AIs creative power could do for literature!

Hello, I’m back

It’s me again

a human

like a real human.

Have you read the above article? fascinating isn’t it? That’s what an AI capable of.

So what do you think? Will AI replace human in every aspect? Even in art and writing? Can it feel any emotions?

End to End Test: Create your first E2E Testing in Cypress

Automation, Automation Testing, mydoqa, quality assurance, Software Testing

This article will show how to create basic End to End testing using Cypress.

What is End-to-End (E2E) Testing?

End-to-end testing, often abbreviated as E2E, is a testing technique that tests an entire product or an entire piece of software. This test is carried out from start to finish to ensure the application flow behaves as expected. E2E test can be interpreted in the abstract is to validate the workings of an application or website from the point of view of a user.

Automate End-to-End (E2E) Testing in Cypress

For this article’s simulation I will use dummy test automation website from books.toscrape.com. This site is good enough for practice purpose. It simulates e-commerce site so we can practice as if create automated testing for e-commerce website. To access the website, you can click the link below.

[embed]https://books.toscrape.com/[/embed]

Preparation

I’m assuming, you already installed the prerequisite software. In this tutorial I use:

Windows 11
Visual studio version 1.52.1
Node js v14.16.1
Cypress version 10.9.0

Of course you can use other version, but the details maybe slightly different.

Write the test

Now we are ready to create end to end test in Cypress. First create bookstore.cy.js file under folder “cypress/e2e/3-example”. My project structure is look like this.

Within the file, write the describe() function. Describe() function comes from mocha bundled library as cypress adopt mocha BDD syntax. It provides a way to keep tests easier to read and organized.

describe(‘Browser Actions’, () => {

})

In this test scenario I will divide the test into 3 segments: Visit the page, click a hyperlink, and verify an element.

Step 1: Visit the page and validate the url return

To visit a page, write down the code below within the describe() function.

it(‘should load correct url’, () => {
    cy.visit(‘https://books.toscrape.com/', { timeout: 10000 })
    cy.url().should(‘include’, ‘toscrape.com’)
})

it() is used for an individual test case. it() takes two arguments, a string naming our test, and a callback function which contains our actual test.

The code above can be broken-down into:

cy.visit(‘https://books.toscrape.com/', { timeout: 10000 }) will open page books.toscrape.com with 10 seconds timeout. cy.url().should(‘include’, ‘toscrape.com’) will verify the returned url should contain string “toscrape.com”.

Step 2: Click a hyperlink and validate the opened page

To visit a page, write down the code below under the previous it() function.

it(‘should Click on Travel category’, () => {
        cy.get(‘a’)
            .contains(‘Travel’)
            .click()
        cy.get(‘h1’).contains(‘Travel’)
    })

The code above can be broken-down into:

cy.get(‘a’).contains(‘Travel’).click() will inspect “a” html element and click an element that contains “Travel”. cy.get(‘h1’).contains(‘Travel’) will verify that the opened page contains string “Travel” as an h1.

To know where the element is located, we can open our web browser and open the page. After that, find it in inspect element. In this scenario string “Travel” is located in “a” element.

Step 3: Verify an element in the opened page

In this step I will add another assertion, which is make sure the first book contain correct price. Please write down the code below under the previous it() function.

it('should show correct price', () => {
        cy.get('.product_pod .product_price')
            .contains('£45.17')
    })

The code above contain a method that will search an HTML class .product_pod then go down to class .product_price. We add . in front of class name but nothing in front of HTML element. After we get price element, make sure that the value is £45.17.

To know where the price is located exactly, you can find it in inspect element, like above.

After we write down the code, complete code will be looks like this:

describe(‘Browser Actions’, () => {
    it(‘should load correct url’, () => {
        cy.visit(‘https://books.toscrape.com/', { timeout: 10000 })
        cy.url().should(‘include’, ‘toscrape.com’)
    })

    it(‘should Click on Travel category’, () => {
        cy.get(‘a’)
            .contains(‘Travel’)
            .click()
        cy.get(‘h1’).contains(‘Travel’)
    })

    it('should show correct price', () => {
        cy.get('.product_pod .product_price')
            .contains('£45.17')
    })
})

Launch the Launchpad

Now, run the cypress using following command:

npm run cypress open

Choosing a Testing Type

It will open Cypress Launchpad. The Launchpad offers two biggest decision first: What type of testing to do. E2E Testing, Which will run the whole application and open pages to test them. Or Component Testing, Which isolate individual component of application and test it.

Launching a Browser

Lastly, Cypress will presents list of compatible browsers Cypress found on your system.

This time I will use Chrome, we can always change it later.

Run the test

Our test is located under E2E specs/3-example. Click bookstore.cy.js and wait until Cypress open books.toscrape.com.

As we can see right now, all the test is succeed.

All the test cases that I show you above are positive cases. You can also create scenario that covers negative cases.
