Open-Source Test Automation
Test automation is an essential component of shifting Agile and DevOps, but for smaller organisations, the cost of getting set up with test automation tools can be a barrier. Open-source test automation uses free tools to improve the efficiency of testing by automating the execution of test cases. Running test cases without human intervention can result in decreased execution time, reduced cost, and increased test coverage without the comparatively high upfront costs of commercial tools.

The Future State of Testing
According to the 2021 World Quality Report, smart technologies will increase cost-efficiency, reduce the need for manual testing, shorten time to market, and help to sustain a circle of continuous quality improvements.

Our Test Automation Framework
With a growing emphasis on faster time to market, our clients are always on the constant lookout for enhancing their test coverage, increasing testing efficiencies, decreasing regression run time, as well as additional and quick enhancements to their test environment and test coverage to meet changing needs and technological advancements.
Effective testing practices demand reusable and robust frameworks, strong knowledge management, and larger user participation. With an aim of addressing these key areas, TTC has developed various test accelerators meaning to handle testing needs of different industries and verticals.
TTC continuously invests resources in building test automation accelerators and frameworks by leveraging our key learnings from our various test automation framework implementation projects. Businesses can heavily benefit by using our pre-built test automation frameworks and leverage our test accelerators to design and run their automated and performance tests using open-source tools. Details of our various test automation accelerator frameworks are detailed out below.
Accelerator Framework
Accelerators – Performance Testing
The Benefits Behind our Accelerator Frameworks
-
Our open-source test frameworks for web, mobile, and API applications are predesigned off-the-shelf, ready-to-use, extendable, and easily customisable
-
Completely functional TCoE, with a library of reusable test assets and reporting that reduces waste – makes coding simpler, facilitates improved quality
-
Fit for the client’s purpose – which will help minimise framework development time – backed with ongoing technical support and upgrades
-
Built from different technology stacks that can be selected based on the customer’s skill set and preferences, that are proven and well-integrated with Agile and DevOps environments
-
Usable even by non-technical resources: our frameworks can be programming language-agnostic and low code, if requested
-
Pre-built function libraries: help in creating automated test scripts, thus cutting test suite development costs by as much as 30%.
How We Work
Our highly experienced consultants have worked with many open-source test automation tools in the market. We have invested significant resources into training, research, and development and can partner with you to manage your test automation project from initial scoping to engineering, implementation, and operational maintenance.
