Question 1. What is test automation or automation testing?

Automation testing uses automation tools to write and execute test cases, no manual involvement is necessary for executing an automated test suite. Testers prefer automation tools to write test scripts and test cases and then group into test suites.

PLAN -> CODE -> BUILD -> TEST -> RELEASE -> DEPLOY -> OPERATE -> MONITOR

Automation testing enables the use of specialized tools to automate the execution of manually designed test cases without any human intervention. Automation testing tools can access the test data, controls the execution of tests and compares the actual result against the expected result. Consequently, generating detailed test reports of the system under test.

Question 2. What are the advantages of automation testing?

Some basic Advantages of automation testing are as follows.

• Automation testing supports both functional and performance test on an application.
• It supports the execution of repeated test cases.
• It facilitates parallel execution.
• It aids in testing a large test matrix.
• It improves accuracy because there are no chances of human errors.
• It saves time and money.
