IBM Rational Functional Tester (RFT)įirst, let us acquaint ourselves with what the term ‘automation’ means. In the next few sections, we will focus on what the term automation truly means, and the various automation testing tools that can prove to be extremely helpful. The best case scenario is a system where both manual and automation testing go hand in hand. Knowing what kind of testing to use in what case is extremely essential. In these cases, automation testing cannot replace manual testing. However, there are some situations where manual testing is unavoidable. It also improves the efficiency of overall development of software and reduces room for the risk of human error. While both methods of testing have their own benefits, we can without a doubt say that automation testing makes our job easier by relieving us of tedious and repetitive work. Some companies prefer manual testing over automation testing.
As the names themselves suggest, manual testing is carried out by a person sitting in front of a computer, methodically carrying out test procedures as specified in a manual test case while automation testing is a method of writing and executing test cases on a software application using automation tools. The way these tests are executed can be broadly divided into two categories – Manual Testing and Automation Testing. The way these tests are executed is also extremely crucial in producing a good quality final product. However, just having tests in place does not guarantee a high-quality product.
In case this essential step is skipped, chances are, the product’s quality will not be up to the mark. The main purpose of having this testing system in place, is to ensure that the quality of product is high. Any company that develops its own products, definitely has a set of tests in place that need to be conducted on the products, before their release.
