Frequently asked questions about Automation
Automation is any set of technologies that reduces human intervention in a process. Automation sequences help people perform parts of tasks that are time-consuming, unsafe, or difficult to get right. An automation system requires some form of human input to work, and it’s up to humans to make further decisions to complete the rest of the task. A popular example of automation is with website and application testing. Before an application or website is released, it’s important to make sure that it works. Instead of having someone typing in each test step manually, testing engineers can use special software to develop an automated test program that meets the developer’s and the client’s requirements (the human input), known as test cases. The predicted outcomes can then be compared to the actual outcomes (the automation output), and testing engineers are able to pinpoint which parts of the website or application need to be modified to satisfy the testing requirements.
The most common programming languages are Python, Selenium, Cucumber, Ansible, and PLC Logics. The Python programming language is commonly used for automation because its syntax is easy for beginners to grasp, and they can start writing automation scripts for web scraping, browser automation, excel automation, and GUI automation on the first day. The Selenium Testing Framework and Selenium Server are automation tools used together to automate the testing of web and mobile applications and repetitive web tasks. Cucumber is a similar testing automation framework for the Java programming language. Ansible is an automation tool used by DevOps engineers to configure the environment of virtual machines and servers. PLC Logics is a platform that uses sensors and actuators in industrial machines to automate the processes of a factory.
