Today, I will talk to you about what are the mainstream frameworks of Web automated testing, which may not be well understood by many people. in order to make you understand better, the editor has summarized the following content for you. I hope you can get something according to this article.

At present, the mainstream Web automated testing frameworks in the market are selenium, AutoRunner, watir, Robot Framework and QTP. These five mainstream frameworks are widely used at present and are loved and welcomed by programmers. The following editor will introduce the advantages and disadvantages of these mainstream frameworks one by one.

1 、 selenium:

Selenium is a tool for testing Web applications. The main functions of this tool include: testing compatibility with browsers, testing your application to see if it works well, on different browsers and operating systems. Test system functions, create regression tests to check software functions and user requirements. Supports automatic recording of actions and automatic generation of test scripts in .net, Java, Perl and other languages. Selenium is not the only automated testing tool on the market, but it is the only free testing tool that can compete with paid products. And Selenium can provide unparalleled flexibility, it can easily integrate a variety of development platforms, such as Jenkins,Maven,TestNG,QMetry,SauceLabs. At the same time, it supports mobile testing, and a variety of languages, platforms and browsers, large communities, and large plug-in libraries. Selenium also has its drawbacks, with no built-in image comparison, technical support, and reporting capabilities.

2 、 AutoRunner:

AutoRunner is an automated functional testing tool. The goal of functional testing is to check whether the actual function of the software is consistent with the function defined by the requirements according to the interface or report of GUI. AutoRunner automatic testing tools are suitable for functional testing, regression testing, system testing, fatigue testing, combinatorial testing, daily build testing, etc., which can improve testing efficiency, reduce testing labor costs, and help users find defects in the tested objects, especially for some defects that are difficult to find by manual testing.

3 、 watir:

Watir is used to locate web elements. It is an automated functional testing tool based on web page mode. It can use chrome, firefox, IE browsers for web testing, it can simulate users to click on links, fill out forms, click buttons, and so on. Compared with other business tools, the small and flexible watir-webdriver provides enough functionality. However, the disadvantage of watir is also obvious, which only supports ie.

4 、 Robot Framework:

Robot Framework is a general testing framework that is cross-platform and independent of application and technology. Its advantages are: easy to expand, provide a simple API, users can customize the test library based on Python and Java. It also provides a powerful tag function to classify test runs, and you can choose different combinations of Tag or tag for test runs. Support for report merging, so that you can execute on multiple machines, and then merge reports, global test timeout settings, local settings that can cover the global is very convenient, will not test jam, and so on.

5 、 QTP:

QTP is the most commonly used testing tool. Now many companies use automated testing framework based on this as the core. The advantage of the automated testing framework based on QTP is that it has good applicability, many people already know how to use it, or at least can easily apply it, the script is easy to understand, and most testers without any code foundation can join script recording and debugging. However, its biggest disadvantage is the object library, keyword framework, flexibility is not high, and QTP in the support of flex, etc., is also a headache for many people.

After reading the above, do you have any further understanding of the mainstream framework of Web automated testing? If you want to know more knowledge or related content, please follow the industry information channel, thank you for your support.
