Test automation framework is a set of assumptions, concepts, and practices that provide support for automated software testing. This article describes and demonstrates five basic frameworks.

 

Test automation frameworks I'm familiar with -- specifically, Test script modularity, Test library architecture, Keyword-driven/table-driven testing, Data-driven testing, and Hybrid test automation.

 

Let me know if you have anyquestions magadala@rediffmail.com

An automation frame work / Architecture can be defined as a suitable "testing process" in order to automate the testing part in any application.*Linear Frame Work*F.D(Functional Decomposition) Frame work*Keyword Driven Frame work*Hybrid Frame work.*Linear Frame Work : 1.test-cases are minimal(20-30)2.test execution perform in(2-3 days)3.test execution has no Drivers/Components.4.testing process is easy & simple.*F.D(Functional Decomposition) Frame work :1.where test cases > 100(from 30 to 100) & maximam.2.where tasting is manually done & automated.3.classified into Drivers/Components.4.Complex testing is performed.5.defects gnerated once is non checked.*Keyword Driven Frame work :1.Basically uses call function to execute.2.Generation of scripts are Done/Saved in drivers.*Hybrid Frame work. :1.where manually testing is implemented.2.Manual test cases are only used.3.Manual test cases are given as inputs in Data table & then executed.

Automation Frame work is nothing but this is a Test Plan to automation process. as u know what test plan describes as in the same way it describes the points like what areas automation process has to be adopted(Regration), each &every process/ steps the team has to follow, what is the Architecture of the data Sheets, how the scripts has prepared/has to be prepared, Naming conventions, Type of testing Data Driven r Keyword driven, how each module can be communicates with each other & excell sheets with clear description Etc.,
