Automate Everything: Transform Your Testing

Probably every test manager dreams of a world where test scripts work the first time, where tests and test scripts are maintained automatically, and where our test team spends their time on finding faults and going deeper in the system rather than redoing the same tests again and again because of changes in the specification. A dream where every ...
