QA Test Automation

Before a software or a system is out on the market, it is important for all businesses to conduct a thorough check. Even the slightest error or bug can be risky, threaten security and ultimately lead to loss of trust among the users. However, it becomes challenging when the demand is for the software to reach the market at a faster pace, while ensuring all bugs have been cleared.

That is why, in recent times, many organizations have begun to rely on Automated Quality Assurance. Unisolvers use this method of testing when there is time constraint or severe pressure of top-notch quality. Steering away from the manual process of checking errors ensures the software is tested more effectively and in less time.

Automated QA uses separate software that is used to conduct tests on the software that is being developed to meet the business requirements. The alternative of this method of testing involves human testers to manually performing each of these processes and tasks, with the use of some technology in order to get rid of repetition.

However, with the introduction of automated QA, the testing can be conducted independently on several of these tasks at the same time. This process also helps in performing advanced levels of tests that are impossible or extremely time-consuming when conducted by human testers.

Here are 2 major ways Unisolvers use to incorporate Automated QA in the process of testing:

• GUI: In this case, the user experience is replicated to eliminate the variability caused by human error. Although it is very similar to the tests that could be manually done, this process is less time-consuming. This test runs in a similar manner every time, as well as used to test a variety of features in each of the alterations. This provides a more accurate bug report.
• API Testing: This mode of testing can be used to assess errors for both third-part APIs and for those built in-house. This method is used to fous on end-to-end transactions as well as on individual components. This Automated testing method includes the response format, security attack responses and handles tricky cases well.
