      Benefits of Automated Testing

      icon - Test More

      Test More

      What if any developer, at any time, could check in a new build and kick off a complete regression test suite at will?  Test more, earlier, and find errors before multiple build iterations, with increasing technology debt, stack up.

      icon - Test Deeper

      Test Deeper

      Some types of testing are just prohibitively expensive to do manually.  Imagine an application that varies, in part, on the postal code: manual testing can only afford to test a handful of variations.  Data-driven automation, though, could be fed a spreadsheet of interesting postal codes, and left to run overnight.

      icon - Test Faster

      Test Faster

      In a hurry? Want shorter test cycles? Don’t have access to infinite test staff? Divide and conquer with automation; distribute your testing across banks of machines, and let your manual testers focus on the items that can‘t be automated.

      As a business, the best way to cut spending is to invest in areas that will cut future costs. Automated tests can be executed repeatedly without additional costs, unlike manual tests that require human resources for each execution. This repeatability leads to significant time savings, allowing teams to test more frequently and comprehensively within the same timeframe. While there are initial investments in developing and maintaining automated tests, the long-term benefits in terms of efficiency, reliability, and scalability can outweigh the upfront costs.

      FAQs

      icon question

      What is automated software testing?

      Automated testing is a process in which software tools execute pre-scripted tests on a software application. The purpose is to define repetitive tasks and create or modify a test automation framework allowing constant test execution, reporting and comparisons. This may greatly reduce your associated testing time and cost.

      icon question

      Can automated testing take the place of manual software testing?

      Automated testing offers numerous benefits, but it is not a complete substitute for manual testing. Certain aspects of testing, such as usability, user experience, and exploratory testing, require human judgment and intervention. A well-balanced approach combining both automated and manual testing ensures comprehensive software QA.

      icon question

      How does automated testing integrate with the development process?

      Automated testing is commonly incorporated into the software development process using continuous integration and deployment pipelines. This guarantees that tests are automatically run whenever new code changes are made, enabling early detection of defects and quicker feedback loops.

      icon question

      What types of applications can benefit from automated testing?

      Automated testing is advantageous for various types of applications such as web applications, mobile apps, desktop software, and APIs. Automation can benefit any software that necessitates frequent testing and validation of functionality and performance.

      icon question

      Who should perform automation testing?

      It is recommended to hire a professional service for automation testing to achieve the best results. Professional testing services employ specialized experts with skills and experience in creating, executing, and managing automated test suites. These experts are knowledgeable about industry standards, use sophisticated testing tools and frameworks, and have a profound understanding of different software development methodologies. Organizations can gain advantages such as extensive testing coverage, quicker test execution, and enhanced software quality by utilizing a professional service. Outsourcing automation testing enables internal teams to concentrate on essential development tasks while ensuring their software is thoroughly and efficiently tested by experienced professionals.

      icon question

      How does automated testing handle dynamic or constantly changing applications?

      Automated testing can manage dynamic or constantly changing applications using methods like stable locators, the Page Object Model design pattern, and parameterization. Automated tests can easily adjust to changes in the application by segregating test data from test scripts and utilizing variables to represent dynamic elements, thus reducing the need for significant manual intervention. This abstraction helps in isolating changes to specific pages and facilitates easier maintenance of test scripts.

      icon question

      What are the main challenges associated with automated testing?

      Common challenges of automated testing include script maintenance as the application changes, managing unreliable tests, and ensuring sufficient test coverage for all functional and non-functional requirements. Establishing and upkeeping automated testing infrastructure may necessitate an initial investment of time and resources.
