Automated Regression Testing
Regression testing is an essential activity in ensuring that problems are not introduced or uncovered as a result of application changes. Test Automation makes a perfect fit for regression testing projects, where you need to test the same functionality over and over again to make sure that the results are exactly the same. You can save hours and hours of testing and valuable resources at a click of a button.
CHALLENGES
Overcoming your greatest challenges can be tough; we’ve got you covered
Automation levels with traditional approaches are insufficient, leading to excessive reliance on manual testing, which is time-consuming and resource-intensive.
Test scripts are not designed for reuse across different test cases, resulting in duplication of efforts and inconsistencies in testing approaches.
Due to inadequate automation, test teams have to invest significant time and effort in manually managing test cases and test data.
The inefficiencies in test automation and data management hinder ed comprehensive test coverage, leading to gaps in quality assurance and potential undetected defects.
Prioritise your regression test packs using a model, risk-based approach
If you need many days to run the regression test pack, keep your test data in excel or struggle to manage cross project analytics it’s time to eliminate these manual test processes and free up time for what really matters.
Nurturing your regression test pack
Validata recommends creating a regression test pack tailored to specific transaction loads based on business needs. Additionally, risk assessment and registration are integrated to develop a risk-based regression test pack, which is executed against the appropriate copies of Production environments for both the current and target releases.
This approach ensures flexibility and simplifies maintenance amid changes. Our methodology keeps test cases independent of environment-specific logical changes, such as daily rate updates, which often cause incompatibility issues in traditional record-and-playback approaches.
