Implementing Rapid Test Automation with QARA Enterprise

Software testing has undergone a sea change in the recent times with the advent of automation and the eventual emergence of concepts like Agile and DevOps. The dynamic market that is the result of the short attention span of the current generation of users, demands constant innovation. This is the reason software application development firms are forced to be on the edge with innovation that is presented to the users through frequent updates in the applications.

While this is great for the users who are constantly being presented with something new, it can be challenging for the developers and QA professionals to keep up with the constant need to develop and test the application. Needless to say, automation is the need of the hour as the extent of testing required today is not possible to achieve through the manual process.

Common Challenges Faced by QA Teams
Given below are some of the challenges faced by enterprises when it comes to software application testing.
  • Testing against multiple browsers
  • End-to-end testing involved in Web, Database and service layer testing
  • Incorrect documentation of test cases
  • Combination of multiple internal applications to complete complex workflows
  • Parallel test execution
  • Low test coverage
  • Low levels of test efficiency
  • Time consuming process of writing test scripts multiple times
  • Test case documentation
