Abstract

The procedure of manual testing takes a lot of time. Automation is particularly desired since testing process is also error-prone due to its repeated structure. Robot Framework is a flexible tool that makes use of the keyword driven testing methodology. It is straightforward to use when high-level keywords may be created from current keywords. Although a command line interface makes it easy to integrate new test libraries, it is also possible to create customised test libraries in Python or Java using a straightforward library API. All these capabilities guarantee that Robot Framework can be used to execute test cases in a timely manner. This paper explains how a WebApp tool could be used to quickly automate testing procedures by reducing expenses and raising the overall functionality of the software. Results comparison of manual testing with automation testing shows that automated tests run on average 80.46% faster than manual tests.
