A New Hybrid Software Testing Automation Framework
Main Article Content
Abstract
Nowadays, with the development of software technologies in all areas of life, software testing, which is an indispensable need of the software life cycle, has become open to development and change. The replacement of manual testing of software products with test automation systems that minimise the human error margin provides the most important example of the transformation of testing processes into a dynamic structure.
This paper details a hybrid approach that utilizes tools such as Java, Maven, Test-NG, etc. used in a traditional test automation. The proposed hybrid approach is based on Java's "Write once, run anywhere" approach. First of all, all HTML elements used in web applications are determined and these elements are saved in a model called PageFactory. PageFactory is a Page object model concept that allows managing elements from a single file. These saved elements are transferred to the next layer, the Test Layer architecture, using the relevant methods in the Page Layer model, and the methods in this layer are invoked and executed. This proposed hybrid approach provides reusability, easy maintenance, cost reduction, increased performance, better quality software products, ease of use and time savings.
