Abstract

Software environment is a testing environment where in the different test cases are executed to check the correctness, reliability and performance of the developed framework. In manual testing functionalities of a specific version of the application is tested manually through specific test cases. Test automation is an important technique for testing large scale applications using an automation tool. This paper deals with the different test automation frameworks, also discuss how to develop a framework using coded UI and Page Object Model for windows based application.

Keywords

Test Automation, Coded UI, Test Automation Framework, Page Object Model.
