Synopsis:
Software systems are getting more and more important for organizations and individuals alike and at the same time they are growing bigger and more complex. Software testing has its own resources, cost and ROI (Return on Investment). Web applications are becoming more and more complex because testing is badly performed or skipped by professionals. Web application testing may be even more difficult, due to the uniqueness of such applications. Test automation is one robust solution, which has been extensively accepted all over the world. It reduce the effort, cost and time of software testing to a reasonable level. The main objective of this paper is to perform test Automation for any kind of E-commerce applications using Selenium Open Source Testing Tool. With this web testing tool, the authors have used Hybrid testing automation framework. Hybrid Testing Framework permits Data driven scripts to make use of the libraries and utilities that always accompany a keyword driven testing. Using this framework, an individual software engineer can easily describe his routine Software engineering tasks and schedule these described tasks by using local machine and global cloud computers in an efficient way. Test cases are designed in excel sheets with the corresponding keywords which are normally written in simple English words. This results to design test cases without the knowledge of any programming languages. Hybrid Testing Framework be able to execute tests, verify results, and recover from expected errors and report results. It must also be simple to use and maintain.
