meenu Meenu, Yogesh Kumar · Journal of Emerging Technologies and Innovative Research · 2015
Software testing is one of the most important phase of Software Development Life Cycle and main technique to find bugs and ensure quality of the software. Software Testing can be conducted manually as well as automated. In manual testing, testing is done without any tool. In automation testing, testing is done with the help of automated testing tools. These automated testing tools enable developers and testers to easily automate the entire process of testing in software development. There is wide variety of software automated testing tools available in market. But it is important to a user to select a best suitable tool for testing. This research paper provides a feasibility study based on different parameters for commercial tools such as the Selenium, SoapUI and open source automation testing tools i.e. HP Unified Functional Testing (UFT), TestComplete (TC), helping developers or users to pick the suitable tool based on their requirements. The objective of this paper is to analyze the features supported by these four functional testing tools that aid in minimizing the resources in script maintenance and increasing efficiency for script reuse.
