Hybrid Automation Framework: A Core Strategy to Decrease Testing Effort in Automation

Abstract Automation testing is a key element of contemporary software development, which serves as the backbone for testing efficiency and product quality improvements besides being able to cut down the costs. This thesis presents a very convenient strategy towards the Hybrid Automation Framework, using various templates, thus, significantly decreasing the effort for practiced automation testing. Through the Hybrid Framework, this research could reduce the amount of hard and exhausting test case scripting, as well as the highly reusable scripts and the efficient modularization of scripts.
The outline of the Hybrid Automation Framework is made of the main principles of test automation, which are test independence, idempotency, and clarity that are very fundamental when building a robust testing suite. Moreover, the framework has a modular structure and a Page Object Model (POM) design pattern to facilitate flexibility and maintainability across disparate testing environments. The basic elements like the Object Repository, Name Mapping, Functions Library, and Data Manager are the nucleus of the framework, which allows smooth test management and proper execution.
The framework's architecture is designed to allow for automation that can be more dynamically handled across different interfaces, such as the Command Line Interface (CLI), the Application Programming Interface (API), and the Graphical User Interface (GUI). Logging and reporting are the basic functions that help failure analysis become effective and the reporting system can be adjusted to determine how the test report is distributed to the stakeholders. This Hybrid Automation Framework, in the end, adds the aspect of full automation testing that permits the testers to carry out the critically important points, thus making it consistent while at the same time cutting down on the manual intervention. The proposed framework is expected to deliver the software test automation system that is scalable, flexible, and performance-driven, which is the methodology suitable for every organization.
