Automated software testing can free up your team’s time and improve your developer’s skill set. It’s a proven process that helps you catch problems and keep your team confident. There are many software tools that you can use for this process. Here are some examples: SmartBear, Testim, TestComplete, Squish, and Katalon.
Testim
Testim is a Chrome testing platform that allows you to create automated tests without writing code. Testim uses AI to speed up the process of authoring, executing, and maintaining tests. It also reduces the cost of QA testing. The company has hundreds of customers and offers both on-premise and private cloud versions. The tool uses dynamic locators to discover test cases as they change automatically.
Testim is a powerful test automation platform that helps you scale and improve the coverage of your software. Its auto-complete feature allows you to create reusable elements and UI actions quickly. The tool then generates a set of test steps for each UI action. In addition, it provides detailed information about the UI action. It also enables you to configure tests without writing any code. For example, you can add validations, reuse steps, and nest groups to your tests.
TestComplete
TestComplete is a functional automated software testing platform that SmartBear Software developed. It allows testers to create automated tests that cover Microsoft Windows, Android, and iOS applications. It also supports the automation of various desktop software applications. With TestComplete, you can write a test once and have it run multiple times automatically.
TestComplete includes two types of debuggers: breakpoints and tracing into routines. It also supports expression evaluation. It is also compatible with popular defect tracking tools like Jira and Bugzilla. The tool has a built-in debugger that can read debug information and help you resolve any errors.
Squish
Squish is a commercial, cross-platform GUI testing and regression testing tool. It can test applications based on several GUI technologies and is developed by Froglogic. It allows developers to execute test cases in a single run instead of spending time on manual testing. Unlike other GUI testing tools, Squish is not dependent on any specific operating system or application. As such, it can be used on Mac, Linux, or Windows.
Squish supports cross-platform desktop, mobile, and embedded applications. It is particularly useful when testing user interfaces, as this is a difficult and error-prone task. It also supports web applications and hybrid GUI applications, such as embedded Java applets.
Katalon
The Katalon Platform is an open-source automation testing software tool. It is based on several open-source automation frameworks and has a specialized IDE interface. The software was first released in January 2015 for internal use. Since then, it has been used extensively for testing and quality assurance purposes by companies and developers across the globe.
Katalon is free to use and requires no prior programming experience. Its user interface is intuitive, and it comes with extensive integrations. Advanced users can also write their own scripts. The tool is highly customizable and supports various operating systems.
