Software Quality Assurance(Sqa) automated software testing
The document discusses automated software testing, including the process of automated testing, advantages and disadvantages, and choosing automation tools. It notes that automation can reduce human involvement in repetitive tasks, help eliminate human error, and enable more reliable, reusable, and faster testing at lower cost. However, high upfront investment is required along with significant resources for test preparation. Key factors for choosing tools include ease of integration, compatibility, performance, and types of tests supported.

Editor's Notes
- #4 organisations have turned to automated software testing For things like code errors and verifying test requirements
- #6 This systematic method maximizes test coverage outline the potential benefits and test tool proposal test tool evaluation and selection Steps necessary to outline automated testing to the project Identifies the test procedure standards, defines the tests, defines development standard Test plans are executed This is done throughout the lifecycle
- #7 Verification – developed software matches the requirements Validation – it is what the organisation wanted Defects and failures – incorrectly setup environments or wrong version of software being deployed – human error - bug or malfunction - system malfunctioning or failing Compatible – so that new software deployed wont mess up any existing apps
- #8 Reliable: carries out the same operations - eliminating human error Reusable: can reuse tests on different versions of an application Better Quality Software: can run more tests in less time with fewer resources – good coverage Fast: run tests significantly faster than human users. Cost Reduction: number of resources for tests are reduced. Replaces: manually mundane and labour intensive tasks
- #9 Is it easily integrated with the system? – weighed against cost and performance of the tool Is it compatible with the design and implementation of the system? How till it perform in the environment – e.g network traffic, hardware? Type of tools are directly dependent Main- how good is the support? online communi?
