Software Testing Automation Services
N2N will deliver or enhance regression test automation. We will identify the ideal
places to apply or improve automation with best practice processes while leveraging
existing tool's investment. If needed, we can provide an auto-tools analysis and
recommendation.
Getting into or optimizing your current test automation is typically difficult change
to adopt. Allowing N2N's independent consulting approach will minimize the tunnel
vision, business dynamics or inexperience that can be hard to avoid.
Our Automation Framework - will jump start your optimization
and the regression assessment will identify the highest positive impact areas on
when and where to automate.
Tool Reviews - There are a multitude of test automation
tools and tool suites available in the market, both commercial and opensource. Each
has its strengths and weaknesses. Some are general user level tools aimed at non-technical
users while others are specialist tools which can be used by technical testers and
developers. We will help you align tool selection with your specific requirements
to ensure that the most appropriate tool or tools are selected for now and in the
future.
Proof of Concepts - Proof of Concept service validates
the tool or tools selected in the Tool Review phase. The large scale rollout of
one specific test automation tool, or a suite of automation tools, is not to be
undertaken lightly. A selected tool needs to be shown to work with the development
technologies and to integrate with the development methodology. Until this task
is done there is significant risk that the tools will not deliver the promised return
on investment.
Automated Scripting - To achieve their maximum capability,
all automation tools require some form of automation scripting support. Essential
automation scripting can be identified during the configuration phase but it is
best implemented after all other configuration changes have been applied as the
configuration can affect the actual form that the scripting may take. Scripting
support can take the form of actually translating manual testing scripts into tool
scripts or the development of support function libraries written in the native scripting
language of the test tool. It can also be extended to include another language such
as C/C++ and integrated into the tool as a shared library, DLL or COM component.
Framework Development - Despite the flexibility inherent
in commercial test automation tools each has a preferred mode of working; through
direct scripting, using a graphical interface or via typical office productivity
tools such as spreadsheets. Our Framework Development service provides an enhanced
automation script development framework for almost any preferred automation tool.
Framework Development requires an extensive understanding of the needs and objectives
from the test planning phase and the knowledge and skills of a developer to implement
the framework. N2N has the experience in testing and development to fully address
all the issues that a framework should encompass.
Regression Automation - Once test automation is integrated
into the development and test cycle, automation of your regression test suite should
be considered. Automating your regression testing can deliver huge savings in time
and costs but the process must be planned and managed correctly to maximize the
benefits. N2N's Regression Automation service can provide you with the optimum solution.
