Over the years, application or software testing has become an integrated and continuous process of SLDC rather than being a standalone activity that is done at the end of the SLDC. C The software testing has evolved from exploratory and manual testing to continuous testing with the help of automation.
While automation testing has reduced the time spent on testing significantly, it is associated with some problems. So, without any further ado, let us understand what test automation is in detail followed by the issues that it has and a reliable solution that we can go for.
Visual Summary
Test automation takes a set of software testing activities and executes them via an automation tool or framework. The tool will run a set of tasks in a properly defined pattern.
It aims at increasing the efficiency of testing by removing any scope for human errors, saving time, and improving test coverage.
It is an undeniable fact that manual testing is a time-consuming and cumbersome process. Test automation can help in generating thousands of test cases within a very short time without causing tester fatigue. With ever evolving technology, test automation is a must have in 2023.
While automated testing is a great way to reduce efforts and increase efficiency, it comes with some challenges.
Self healing test automation is a technique of leveraging both artificial intelligence and machine learning to adapt application testing dynamically for any changes in the application interface or development environment. Some of its benefits are:
Self healing helps in maintaining the test automation process in a proper way however, infusing AI in test automation can make the self healing process efficient and faster. As mentioned earlier, test case maintenance can take up 80% of a team’s time. Self healing processes enhanced with AI can help you automate your entire testing process without stressing yourself about its maintenance. Webomates’ patented AiHealing technology, takes the load of test case maintenance off your shoulders. Let’s see how it does that in the next section.
AiHealing happens in three steps:
Webomates AI system analyzes the pass or fail report and other execution data to identify false failures. It takes two types of inputs for this analysis:
Most of the time, locator changes, timeout and script errors, and feature changes are the main reasons for automation script failure. The AI system identifies the exact reason for failure along with end-to-end flow changes. The release notes and user stories also help in identifying the test cases that require healing.
Webomates defect predictor takes care of this entire process, and depending upon the type of error, the next course of action starts. Mind you, AiHealing uses advanced AI technology, which will help resolve the issue within 24 or 8 hours with contract-guaranteed SLA agreements as per your requirements.
The kind of action that an AI system will take depends upon the defect and its root cause. Once the action is proposed by our AI system, it can be reviewed and confirmed for effective results.
Webomates has patented this AiHealing technology for a reason. It comes with so many benefits and has a huge impact on accelerating the releases. Here are some of its benefits:
Webomates guarantees you 100% results with our AiHealing technology. If you are vexed with flaky, false positive results, then it is time to take your testing up a notch with the help of Websites. Our patented technology, along with the industry experts, can bring a huge difference in the way you have tested till now and ensure that you release your software apps as soon as possible.
