Key Features


In addition to standard features such as performing operations and verifications on the objects, the framework includes other sophisticated features, such as:

  1. Use of variables:

    Variables can be defined and used across the generated test script. This can be used to capture run-time values, which can be reused as input elsewhere during test execution.

  2. Conditional checking:

    Conditional constructs such as ifcan be implemented using keywords to handle different

  3. Data-driven testing:

    This framework supports data-driven testing by importing data from an external resources.

  4. Re-usability:

    The Open Source Test Automation Framework is an application independent framework that deals with all possible actions and verifications that can be performed on an object. Therefore, the code for the same object can be used across different applications. Duplication of work is minimized at every level.

  5. Increased quality:

    The scripts will be of uniform quality since they make use of the same code

  6. Greater productivity:

    The Open Source Test Automation Framework provides both qualitative and quantitative benefits for automation and it is highly productive compared to any other framework. This framework also addresses the ongoing maintenance of the test scripts in a cost-effective manner

  7. Maintenance:

    Simple modifications to the application can be easily handled in the code. The changes will be done only in the source file containing the code and the scripts need not be changed. Hence it is easy to maintain the scripts and provide cost-effective solutions for the test automation.

  8. Return on investment is high:

    Although the initial effort for building the framework is high, in the long run, the return on investment will be high because of the re-usability and optimum utilization of the tool.
