I have three easy questions.
Does anybody use QuickTest Pro for automated testing?
Any other automated testing applications that you recommend?
Is automated testing a good idea?
Thanks
There are several threads on SO concerning test automation:
I’ve never used Quick Test Pro, but I’ve been on several projects that have used different automated test tools; Silk Test, Rational Robot, WinRunner. The most successful of these efforts was the one that used Rational Robot with the RRAFS framework to isolate application changes from the test scripts. We also use the STAF framework for automating and managing our test infrastructure.
Automated testing is a good technique for testing facets of an application, but it doesn’t replace human testers. Like all tools, you can use it or you can abuse it. As long as what you’re testing is stable, repetitive, has predictable or computable results, and you test it often enough, then the cost of automating will eventually pay for itself.
