Gyancity Journal of Electronics and Computer Science · 2020
In order to produce the quality product, assessment is made during and at the end of Software development process to check whether software is error free and to ensure whether specified requirements of the Software are met.This practice is called Software Testing.In order to cope time and resource constraints of this modern era, now a day new way of testing called automated testing is working against manual testing.In automated testing, pre-scripted tests are executed by software tool.A software tool is used to test or check software execution.Actions are pre-recorded and predefined then playback is performed through an automated testing tool, comparison of the results with the expected behavior is made and the success or failure is reported.There exists different mode of testing like unit testing, integration testing and functional testing and each one works in different perspective.Not all types of testing can be automated but a few can be.In this paper various types of testing that can be automated are discussed and how they work in different scenario.The way in which different automated testing tools perform these testing are discussed in this paper.
