Crossword for Introduction to Automation Testing
Across
- 2. A testing challenge where the software must support and function correctly across different languages and locales.
- 3. A critical aspect of testing that evaluates how well software responds under varying levels of stress or demand.
- 5. A desirable attribute of test scripts, enabling them to be applied in multiple testing scenarios with minimal modification.
- 7. The practice of reducing human involvement by using software tools to perform repetitive tasks autonomously.
- 9. A process ensuring that the software complies with specified functional requirements as part of formal testing.
- 10. A metric used to quantify the extent to which a software system is tested by the available test cases.
- 12. The act of running predefined test steps to validate expected software behavior in a controlled environment.
- 16. A standardized set of protocols and conventions that structure the automation process, making it scalable and reusable.
- 17. The ongoing effort required to keep test scripts relevant and functioning as the system under test evolves.
- 19. A measure of how swiftly and effectively automated tests can be executed, especially under time constraints.
- 21. The emulation of complex system states or user interactions to test a program without requiring physical hardware.
- 25. A component of Selenium that provides a programming interface to control browser actions directly.
- 26. A specialized tool for automating end-to-end tests in applications built using the Angular framework.
- 28. The degree to which the results of automated tests align with the expected outputs, particularly in validating computations.
- 29. A series of programmed commands that automate the interaction between the test system and the software being tested.
- 30. The reduction of key personnel in a team, where automation helps mitigate the loss of institutional knowledge.
Down
- 1. The phase where abstract test plans are transformed into concrete, executable automated test cases.
- 4. The phase of testing where separate components are brought together to ensure they work as a cohesive unit.
- 6. A structured set of data used in testing to simulate real-world conditions and validate system behavior.
- 8. The underlying technical foundation, including hardware, networks, and tools, necessary to support test automation.
- 11. A key property of test automation where tests consistently produce the same result across multiple runs.
- 13. Testing focused on ensuring that recent code modifications haven’t inadvertently broken existing functionality.
- 14. The systematic investigation of a program to uncover defects and ensure it functions according to specified requirements.
- 15. A widely used open-source tool that automates web browser interactions for testing purposes.
- 18. The inherent constraints in automated testing, such as inability to visually assess user interface elements.
- 20. The likelihood or practicality of automating a test case, determined by factors such as complexity and ROI.
- 22. A testing tool designed for automating browser-based tests across multiple platforms without requiring browser plugins.
- 23. A meticulous process of tracing the source of failures or unexpected behaviors in a system’s logic or scripts.
- 24. A central storage location where test scripts, results, and related resources are systematically managed.
- 27. Built-in checkpoints within a test script that confirm whether the actual output matches the expected outcome.
