Automated Testing

The Hercules test framework will help testers test Verne in a simple way by,

• Using Gherkin (Given When Then) syntax which are easy to read and understand
• Given-When-Then steps can be reused between scenarios. The underlying implementation for each step does not change.
• Creating tests using labels on the screen (do not need to worry about XPath)

The framework is designed to provide simple/complex support to write scenarios before/after testing.

Automated tests will support Testers and developers to validate that the application still performs correctly after a new change and regression as well.

Automated tests will enable:

• Increase test coverage
• Creation of test data in the system through high-speed and automated data entry via the test system
• Easy variation of scenarios via data tables
• Lower maintenance costs
• A single language for developers and testers.
• Browser compatibility testing
• Functional testing using functional test scripts, including randomized and custom generated data
