Automation Testing
In software testing, test automation is the use of software separate from the software being tested to control the execution of tests and the comparison of actual outcomes with predicted outcomes.
Benefits of Automation Testing:-
Faster execution
- Faster execution results in time saving
- Faster execution results in faster feedback which in turn promotes faster development
Reduced resources
- Faster execution results in time saving
- Faster execution results in faster feedback which in turn promotes faster development
Accurate results
- Since it does not require human intervention while performing tests, there is no room for human error and results in accurate results every time.
Repeatable and Reusable
- Automations tests can be run many times without any effort
- Those can be reused for other similar applications (with slight modifications)
Reduced cost
- In the long run, automation testing reduces so much cost on resources
Continuous evaluation on the application
- Automations tests can be configured to run on every new build of development code which can be useful in identifying the defects with in no time
Above are some of the advantages of automation testing which makes business to opt for automation instead of manual testing, which results in — more career opportunities with high packages.
