5. In Automation Testing we test the repetitive functionalities of the application.
6. It takes lot of time.
6. It takes less time.
7. Manual Testing would be run sequentially.
7. Automation Testing is done on different machines at same time.

Test Scenarios for Excel Export Functionality

1. The file should get exported in the proper file extension. 2. The file name for the exported Excel file should be as per the standards e.g. if the file name is using the timestamp, it should get replaced properly with an actual timestamp at the time of exporting the file. 3. Check for date format if exported Excel file contains the date columns. 4. Check number formatting for numeric or currency values. Formatting should be the same as shown on the page. 5. The exported file should have columns with proper column names. 6. Default page sorting should be carried in the exported file as well. 7. Excel file data should be formatted properly with header and footer text, date, page numbers etc. values for all pages. 8. Check if the data displayed on a page and exported Excel file is the same. 9. Check export functionality when pagination is enabled. 10. Check if export button is showing proper icon according to the exported file type E.g . Excel file icon for xls files 11.

Basic Introduction of RPA

  1) What is Robotic Process Automation? ·          Robotic process automation (RPA) is defined by the Institute for Robotic Process Automation (IRPA) as ‘the application of technology allowing employees in a company to configure computer software or a ‘robot’ to capture and interpret existing applications for processing a transaction, manipulating data, triggering responses and communicating with other digital systems.’ ·          RPA (Robotic Process Automation) Robotic Process Automation enables you with tools to create your own software robots to automate any business process. Your “bots” are configurable software set up to perform the tasks you assign and control. 2) What Can RPA Do? ·          RPA is software-based, it can be used to perform various tasks. These include maintenance of records, queries, calculations, and transactions. Additionally, any application commonly used by your company can be operated by RPA. ·          For example, Citrix, .NET, HTML,

Introduction to Apache JMeter

Apache JMeter is a great open source application with awesome testing abilities. Web Server is a platform which carries loads of numbers of applications and users, so that it is necessary to know that how does it works or performs means; how effective it is to handle simultaneous users or applications. For example; how the “Gmail” supporting server will perform when numbers of users simultaneous access the Gmail account – basically have to do performance testing using performance testing tools like JMeter, Loadrunner etc. To check the high performance of the application or server, do high performance testing using JMeter for exceptional results. Before understanding Overview of JMeter , let us have a look on three testing approach, Performance Test : This test provides the best possible performance of the system or application under a given configuration of infrastructure. Very fast, it also highlights the change need to be made before application goes into producti
