Test Automation
Test Automation
Are you still relying on manual testing methods for your applications? Is your competition releasing multiple versions while you're still working on one? Our Automation Testing Service can dramatically speed up your release cycles. Simply put, automated testing is where software tests software. Predefined tools execute the test suite and provide detailed reports on key outcomes, all with minimal human involvement.
- Faster and more accurate: Test automation accelerates the testing process, reduces errors, and ensures quicker, more precise releases.
- Comprehensive test coverage: Automation can be applied to all types of testing, including functional, performance, and more.
- Efficient and scalable: The efficiency of automated testing lies in the use of reusable and scalable tools and frameworks, which help streamline the process and deliver consistent results
- Core to CD/CI and DevOps: Automating testing is a foundational requirement for Continuous Delivery/Continuous Integration (CD/CI) and DevOps practices, ensuring faster and more reliable deployments.

If you are used to manual testing, you probably expect to have a user interface in order to test the application. However, in the software world, testing can be done by interacting with the application via its API. The service layer provides a very well-defined semantic that can be used for testing the business logic of an application. By taking advantage of this, you can create a set of automated tests that can reliably validate this area of your application and be very cost-effective.
During manual functional testing, the user has to manually interact with the user interface, perform common scenarios, and ensure they get the correct outcome. However, this is very labour-intensive and expensive in terms of manual resources, as the regression suite will grow as your product evolves. To circumvent those limitations, a subset of your manual tests should be automated. This is achieved by using specialized software that is capable of interacting with your application. Despite its up-front cost, test automation has a good ROI as those tests can be re-executed as often as desired without any manual intervention. Some tests are more suited for test automation, such as:
- Simple tests: as they can be easily automated with a very good ROI
- Iterative tests: by repeating the same tests with data variations (data-driven tests)
- Smoke tests: tests that will be executed very often
- Stable tests: tests where the UI never changes
Mobile devices, such as smartphones, have become so important that they are now the main tool of interaction with the Internet. Increasingly, native applications are becoming available on those devices, even before desktop ones. However, due to the competing operating systems from various vendors and also to the various form factors, the amount of testing required is phenomenal. Unless you want to restrict support to just a few models (but you will also restrict your client’s reach), you will have to test the application across tens of devices, each having different operating systems, screen ratios, resolutions, and capabilities. Testhouse has a well-equipped mobile testing lab with an array of real devices deployed on a cloud-based solution at your disposal to automatically test any of your applications.
Web-based applications are client-server applications designed to work inside a browser. With so many browser editions and versions on the market (Internet Explorer, Safari, Firefox, Chrome, etc.), it is impossible to test them all. This proves even more difficult when we consider all the various mobile devices (Android, Apple, and Windows Phone, to name a few) that may potentially run the application. In these circumstances, test automation can greatly help, as you can write the automated test once and test it across various browsers and mobile devices. Web-based test automation projects are some of our longest-running regular testing projects with very happy clients.
