Understanding of Automation Framework

Introduction to Test Automation Framework Areas covered Include:

What an Automation Framework is ? How many types of Automation Framework are there ? How to select & Deploy an Automation Framework ? What are the Constituents of Automation Framework ?
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> www.softwaretestinggenius.com <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<

What a Test Automation Framework is ? It is a structured combination of :


Various Assumptions for Testing Testing Concepts Testing Practices

Aim is to provide support to Automated Software Testing


>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> www.softwaretestinggenius.com <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<

Utility of Test Automation Framework

Provides an Outline of overall Test Structure Ensures Consistency of Testing Minimizes the Amount of Code for Development - thereby Less Maintenance

Utility of Test Automation Framework

Maximizes Reusability Reduces Exposure of Non-Technical Testers to Code Enables Test Automation using Data

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> www.softwaretestinggenius.com <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<

How Many Types of Automation Frameworks are there ? Generally there are 4 Types :
Data Driven Automation Framework Keyword Driven Automation Framework Modular Automation Framework Hybrid Automation Framework
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> www.softwaretestinggenius.com <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<

Data Driven Automation Framework


>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> www.softwaretestinggenius.com <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<

Data Driven Automation Framework Advantages :


Repeated use of Test Scripts with Different Inputs and Response Data coming out of Predefined Dataset Easy to implement in IBM - RFT with the help of Datapools Helps in Reducing Coding for Large Test Cases Ease of Testing of Time-Consuming & Complex Test Cases
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> www.softwaretestinggenius.com <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<

Keyword Driven Automation Framework


>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> www.softwaretestinggenius.com <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<

Keyword Driven Automation Framework Attributes :


As the Name suggests, it enables Keyword Driven Testing or Table Driven Testing Data & Keyword Tables being Independent of the Automation Tool Enables Documentation of the Functionality of the Application under Test (AUT) in A Tabular Format
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> www.softwaretestinggenius.com <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<

Modular Automation Framework


>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> www.softwaretestinggenius.com <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<

Modular Automation Framework Types of Modular Frameworks :


Test Script Modularity Framework: Enables creation of Small, Independent Scripts representing Modules & Functions of the Application under Test (AUT) Test Library Architecture Framework: Enables creation of Library Files representing Modules & Functions of the Application under Test (AUT)
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> www.softwaretestinggenius.com <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<

Hybrid Automation Framework


>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> www.softwaretestinggenius.com <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<

Hybrid Automation Framework Attributes :


It is the Most Popularly Implemented Framework It is a Combination of the Three Types of Frameworks described before It has an Ability of Evolving Itself Over a Passage of Time and Over Many Projects

Ten Steps to Implement Automation Framework Approach


>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> www.softwaretestinggenius.com <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<

How to Implement Test Automation Framework Methodology Steps 1 and 2 :


1) Identification of the Scope of Testing: Company Oriented, Product Oriented, Project Oriented 2) Identification of the Needs of Testing: Identify Types of testing e.g. FT, Web Services etc. and application / modules to be tested
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> www.softwaretestinggenius.com <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<

Ten Steps for Implementation of Test Automation Framework Methodology Steps 3 and 4 :
3) Identification of the Requirements of Testing: Find out the Nature of Requirements, Identification of type of actions for each requirement & identification of High Priority Requirements 4) Evaluation of the Test Automation Tool: Preparation of Evaluation Checklist, Identification of the Candidate Tools Available, Sample Run, Rate & Select the Tool, Implementation & Training >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> www.softwaretestinggenius.com <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<

Ten Steps for Implementation of Test Automation Framework Methodology Steps 5 and 6 :
5) Identification of the Actions to be automated: Actions, Validations & Requirements supported by the Tool 6) Design of the Test Automation Framework: Framework Guidelines, Validations, Actions Involved, Systems Involved, Tool Extensibility Support, Customs Messages & UML Documentation
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> www.softwaretestinggenius.com <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<

Ten Steps for Implementation of Test Automation Framework Methodology Steps 7 and 8 :
7) Design of the Input Data Bank: Identification of Types of Input file, Categorization & Design of File Prototypes 8) Development of the Automation Framework: Development of Script based upon Framework Design, Driver Scripts, Worker Scripts, Record / Playback, Screen / Window / Transaction, Action / Keyword & Data Driven
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> www.softwaretestinggenius.com <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<

Ten Steps for Implementation of Test Automation Framework Methodology Steps 9 and 10 :
9) Population of Input Data Bank: Different Types of Data Input, Population of Data from Different Data Sources, Manual Input of Data and Parent Child Data Hierarchy 10) Configuration of the Schedulers: Identify Scheduler Requirements & Configure the Schedulers
