Model-Based Test Automation for Robot Framework

Model-Based Test Automation for Robot Framework

Test Modeller offers a model-based approach to optimized Robot script generation, removing the delays associated with test creation while maximising Robot test coverage. Application scanners, recorders, test and requirements importers rapidly build intuitive flowchart models to drive test creation, while existing Robot Framework resources can be re-used to generate tests without slow and complex configuration. Anyone in cross-functional teams can design executable test suites in this simple visual approach, with automation engineers focusing on automating the new system logic that needs testing each sprint.

“Fast Modelling” automatically builds the equivalence classes needed to test each component rigorously, automatically identifying synthetic test data generation functions for the elements. Automated test generation then compiles the smallest set of Robot Framework scripts needed to test all the modelled logic, resolving the dynamic data generation functions to assign up-to-date test data combinations to each test. The executable code is synchronized automatically with source control systems, automatically triggering CI/CD and build processes to drive rigorous continuous testing.
