This document discusses test automation concepts and tools. It defines a test case as specifying inputs, execution conditions, testing procedures and expected results for a particular test objective. Automation testing uses automation tools to execute test case suites, enter test data, compare results and generate reports. The benefits of automation testing include earlier defect detection, faster testing and increased coverage. Common automation tools discussed are Selenium for web testing, TestNG/JUnit for unit/functional testing, and Appium for mobile app testing. The document concludes with an offer to demonstrate how to create a basic automation test.

- 2. Agenda ● What's a test case ● What's automation testing ● Why automated testing? ● Automation Benefits ● Basic concepts for test automation ● Let's talk about some automation tools ● Demo / How to create a basic automation test
- 3. What's a test case ● A test case is a specification of the inputs, execution conditions, testing procedure, and expected results that define a single test to be executed to achieve a particular software testing objective, such as to exercise a particular program path or to verify compliance with a specific requirement. ● Example.
- 4. What's automation testing ● Manual Testing is performed by a human sitting in front of a computer carefully executing the test steps. ● Automation Testing means using an automation tool to execute your test case suite. ● The automation software can also enter test data into the System Under Test, compare expected and actual results and generate detailed test reports. Test Automation demands considerable investments of money and resources.
- 8. Why automated testing? ● Manual Testing of all workflows, all fields, all negative scenarios is time and money consuming ● It is difficult to test for multilingual sites manually ● Automation does not require Human intervention. You can run automated test unattended (overnight) ● Automation increases the speed of test execution ● Automation helps increase Test Coverage ● Manual Testing can become boring and hence error-prone. 500 Test Cases, 4 min. execution time 1 environment (1 browser, 1 OS, 1 version) = 5.5 days
- 9. Basic concepts for test automation ● IDE ● Driver ● Platform ● Execution mode ● Local ● Remote ● Grid ● Libraries
- 10. Automation Benefits Earlier detection of defects Allow your staff to focus on more relevant testing, useful or more complex tasks. Minimizing the time required for a new version of your product (time-to-market).
- 11. Automation Risk Wrong election of technology can lead to a bad Automation Framework. Not following Good Coding Practices can make our framework something unmaintainable. Automation is not the solution to everything.
- 12. Let's talk about some automation tools ● Selenium: It is a software testing tool used for Regression Testing. It is an open source testing tool that provides playback and recording facility for Regression Testing. The Selenium IDE only supports Mozilla Firefox web browser.
- 13. Let's talk about some automation tools ● TestNG/jUNIt/nUnit: The design goal of TestNG is to cover a wider range of test categories: unit, functional, end- to-end, integration, etc., with more powerful and easy-to-use functionalities.
- 14. Let's talk about some automation tools ● Appium: Is built on the idea that testing native apps shouldn't require including an SDK or recompiling your app. And that you should be able to use your preferred test practices, frameworks, and tools. Appium is an open source project and has made design and tool decisions to encourage a vibrant contributing community.
