In the last part which we wrote a while back, we covered the Basics of the Robot Framework. I thought to share another important part of Robot Framework which helped me a lot while setting up different Robot Framework based test automaton projects i.e. creating Custom Keywords.
While creating some large scale test automation projects there comes a point when you don’t or can’t implement complex logic in Robot Framework syntax itself, either it is too complex or it becomes cumbersome to do so. So to solve this issue the best solution is to write your own custom Keywords in…
While working in QA (Quality Assurance) field for the past 8 years I have been really tempted to ditch QA and go into development. There were multiple opportunities throughout my career at different times in my career to switch to development, but I decided against it. The question is but why I didn’t? Because the argument is developers are paid more and you might get a chance to go towards a higher manager role as well as compare to QA.
Even though both of the arguments mentioned above are valid, but the basic principle to be in any career is…
One of the things everyone encounters in the software development life cycle (SDLC) is a bug. Who-ever or which part they play in the team, developer, product, project manager, or QA they have to go through bug either while writing it, reproducing it, or prioritizing it.
So proper bug reporting should be given proper care and attention which always saves time in the long run. Usually, a bug is reported in a very haphazard way which in turn costs a lot later. …
Over the years, the world has undergone many changes and thereby it has resulted in influencing the needs of people as well. Moreover, this has also pushed for evident changes in software use and its development. Being an active member of Quality Assurance (QA) in Software engineering for the past 9 years I have been lucky enough to experience this transition that the software industry has developed through its years of progression.
One of the essential parts of a tech team is the QA team that is the last barrier between the development team and your clients. As the manager…
Robot Framework is a test automation framework that is Python-based. This framework supports writing an object-page model in keyword driven methodology.
One of the benefits of choosing Robot Framework over other testing frameworks is its tendency of making it easier for Business people to write their own test-cases without any programming knowledge.
One of the other benefits of choosing it is its community support and it’s log files. It has very descriptive logs including complete debugging capabilities through readable logs. It also has its interface with python where writing custom functions can’t be easier than any other framework. …
