In this article, we outline how can small QA teams make the transition from manual to codeless testing to full-fledged automated testing.
For example, a script to import test data into a database, a utility to generate random test data, etc.2 – Know impediments to switch to automated testingOnce you acknowledge as a team that you need to move to automated testing, the next step is to know what is stopping your team from making this move.
For example, think before picking a tool that does not work well with iFrames if your application is using iFrames heavily, or start to build out a test automation framework if your team doesn’t have any automation experience, etc.3 – Start simple and small but make it successfulA good beginning is half the job done.
Don’t go crazy with automation and start with most time taking or complex ones first or you will make your beginning harder and reduce your chances of success.
It will be easier when you choose combination of tools and frameworks.
Codeless testing tools could cover most of your simple to medium complex manual tests.5 – Learn and practice programmingPick up the programming language that your team is most comfortable with.
