We know that test automation is expected to make processes faster and easier in software organizations and also to enhance the quality of the software significantly. However, in reality, test automation fails around 64% of the time to deliver according to the expectations as per Cigniti. Here are some of the main reasons why test automation fails for your web automation:

Appian, in cooperation with Defense Information Systems Agency (DISA) engineers and the United States Marine Corps, now supports mobile access to Appian applications within the Department of Defense Information Network (DODIN). This enables access to the Appian platform, as well as Appian applications and solutions deployed in a DODIN Cloud-approved enclave (AWS, GovCloud, Azure, etc.) via any DOD-approved iOS or Android mobile device.

Healthcare organizations like yours are riddled with mountains of data and document streams coming in each day. Whether it’s patient records, claims, denials, remits, or clinician credentials… the list goes on. All these items can quickly create chaos and confusion without proper organization protocols in place to handle this data deluge. When employees are tasked with manually handling inbound document management, there is the potential for a wide array of complications, including.

Test automation helps increase development speed while reducing cost and effort. In this article, we will share how to automate testing to help keep a test automation initiative on the right track with key tips for test execution, design and maintenance for large enterprise applications.

As Agile methodology was introduced, the need for fast and continuous delivery of software applications increased. Fulfilling this need, automation testing within organizations increased. Various free open source and paid automation testing tools were introduced. Selenium was the first open-source automation tool introduced and organizations moved towards this tool for their test automation needs.

Robot Framework is a generic open-source automation framework for acceptance testing, acceptance test-driven development (ATDD), and robotic process automation (RPA). Robot Framework allows testers to easily write automated test scripts using a keyword-driven testing approach. Teams using Jira and Xray can easily integrate testing results coming from the CI/CD pipeline. This provides a lean and scalable test automation process.

In the test automation tool market, Selenium is most likely to be the first tool of choice for testers. Selenium is useful for writing test scripts for web applications. It is capable of simple tasks—like checking how the page loads, to a more complex process—like imitating the entire user experience on a website. Over the years, Selenium has evolved to more than just an automation tool to a much-needed testing skill for QA professionals.

Making a decision to start automation is easy but choosing an appropriate tool for automation is not. There are teams that are spending a lot on hiring new manual testing resources but find it hard to invest in automation. The reasons could be many.
