Increasing the Return on Investment for testing

How well you can respond to new functionality releases will largely depend on the effectiveness and responsiveness of your testing capability. Automated software testing is an important tool to help deliver this effectiveness.

With software vendors gradually moving to the DevOps model of continuous high quality software delivery achieved through continuous, largely automated, testing capabilities, the pressure will be to match their delivery with your ability to accept.

Test automation

Test automation is the use of software separate from the software being tested to control the execution of tests and then compare actual and predicted outcomes. Test automation:

• Automates repetitive tasks by replicating user interface events such as keystrokes and mouse clicks
• Validates the behaviour of APIs
