Below are various client scenarios and the solutions we implemented.
Types of Test Automation
Functional Testing
Functional testing assesses the software against the set functional requirements/specifications. It focuses on what the application does and mainly involves black box testing.
Black box testing is also known as behavioral testing and involves testing functionality of elements without delving into its inner workings. This means that the tester is completely unaware of the structure or design of the item being tested.
Functional testing focuses primarily on testing the main functions of the system, its basic usability, its accessibility to users, and the like. Unit testing, integration testing, smoke testing, and user acceptance testing are all examples of functional testing.
Unit Testing
Unit testing involves running tests on individual components or functions in isolation to verify that they are working as required. It is typically done in the development phase of the application and is therefore often the first type of automated testing done on an application.
Unit testing is usually performed by the developer and always comes before integration testing.
Unit tests are extremely beneficial because they help identify bugs early in the development phase, keeping the cost of fixing them as low as possible. Unit tests are a good way of helping developers understand the functionality of each unit in the application and also facilitate the reusability of code.
Performance Testing
Performance testing involves testing a software’s speed, stability, and responsiveness under workload.
The main purpose of performance testing is to identify any possible performance hurdles and have them removed to optimize the software’s ability to deliver the best results to the end user.
Performance testing is an essential feature in ensuring a software’s success in the market because it helps identify potential issues users could face such as slow operation of software under a heavy workload.
Additionally, critical software and medical programs should be performance tested to ensure they can perform reliably under the most stressful of circumstances.
Data-driven Testing
Data-driven testing involves the use of data external to the system to extend your automated test cases. Data is usually stored separately in a spreadsheet format or a table and is fed into the test cases.
Data-driven testing is effective because often testers have multiple sets of data when testing and having to develop a new test for each set of data is time-consuming and a wastage of resources.
Data-driven testing allows for the same test to be used for multiple sets of data, offering consistency of results, and reduced investment of time and resources. Data-driven tests facilitate reusability of code, can be done in any phase of the software development phase, and changes to the script do not affect the test data.
