- 3. 3Automation Without Framework85% of all Test Automation initiatives did not give enough ROI
- 5. 5qLabs Automation Approach ** iLeap is qlabs’ Test Automation Framework
- 6. 6iLeapTest suite development equivalent to writing manual test casesEliminates the communication overhead between manual and automation engineer.Easy migration from one tool to anotherUnattended execution with inbuilt recovery mechanisms Publishes the test results in easy to read format. Supports all major functional automation tools and technologies including AJAX, Silver Light 3.0Enable conditional execution feature to take care of complex real time business scenarios
- 7. Automation Suite Development – Create Object RepositoryObjectObject PropertiesApplication Under Test Define Application Under Test (AUT) object properties in a segregated environmentUnique IdentifierScalable with respect to incremental build changes
- 8. Improves the ease of test script maintenance
- 9. Enables fast delivery and early detection of defects7
- 10. Automation Suite Development – Create Test Case Action RepositoryAction values are maintained in keyword tablesTest case functional steps 1: Enter the value in the Login Name edit field2: Enter the value in the Login Password edit field3: Click on Login ButtonExpected resultVerify that the next page appears and theDashboard link is visibleTestUser1PasswordTest case repository is used to store definitions of test cases with respect to test data.
- 11. Improves efficiency by separation of the code from the data
- 12. Improved maintainability of test scripts. 8
- 13. Automation Suite Development – Create Test Case Data RepositoryMultiple iterations with different test dataIteration 2 ValuesIterations 1 Values9
- 14. Test Suite Execution - Control ConfigurationContains control parameters for the test executionParameters to control Result ReportingParameter to control Test EnvironmentApplication ParametersParameter to control Test ExecutionExecution PriorityExecution Status 10
- 15. Test Suite Execution - Result ReportingResult file created with the date and time stamp, version number appended to the filenameResults of Test Case ExecutionCustomization in executionA standardized method to log test results is used throughout
- 16. Relevant Pass/Fail information is generated along with test case details11
- 17. Incorporates best practices of test automation engineering which results in: No framework development is required, resulting in lower risk and a quick jumpstart. Highly robust and scalable solution Rapid test development; productivity increases up to 40%Minimized tool dependency and empowered manual test engineersEffective handling of incremental changes results in 60% cut in maintenance costsWeb based ROI Calculations showcase the overall automation benefits for any applicationhttp://qlabs.impetus.co.in/automation_roi_calculator/12Advantages Over Alternative Options
