    What is Test automation?

    Test automation uses automation frameworks and tools to verify the software or product’s functionality. The importance of test automation has risen over the years as this reduces the manual effort to a large extent and also saves time, which means a quicker release of high-quality products in the market. These test automation frameworks ensure continuous delivery within the DevOps framework.

    What is DevOps?

    DevOps, short for Development and Operations, combines practices and philosophies to deliver applications and services faster than the traditional approach. DevOps focuses on agility which can be achieved through the integration of various processes and automation in software development and operations to deliver reliable software with a shorter lead time. DevOps promotes a continuous delivery approach, where software changes can be released quickly and frequently.

    Top 5 Benefits of Test Automation in DevOps

    Listed below are some of the top benefits of test automation and performance testing in DevOps:

    1. Deliver products quickly

    In today’s fast-paced world, where consumer aspirations are constantly evolving, software companies need to keep up with the changes. Automated testing and DevOps go hand-in-hand as they incorporate the philosophy of quicker release in a shorter time. This will enable reliable and bug-free products to be delivered to the market quickly.

    2. Software stability

    With constant upgrades to products and releasing newer versions, it becomes all the more imperative to ensure stable software. Continuous testing in DevOps is important to ensure products are glitch-free and function smoothly after undergoing software upgrades.

    3. Simplifies the testing process

    By using the right test automation tools and frameworks in DevOps, many repetitive tasks that are time-consuming and cumbersome can be automated. Automation testing in DevOps will increase efficiency while reducing human errors.

    4. Collaboration across teams

    Collaboration of the test automation team with the development and operations teams is crucial for the test effectiveness within the release pipeline.

    5. Improved Quality

    By automating tests, organizations can achieve consistent and reliable results. This leads to higher product quality as critical bugs are caught early, reducing the risk of releasing flawed software.

    In Conclusion:

    Considering these benefits, several enterprises are now incorporating test automation in DevOps to improve efficiency and business value. By combining the power of test automation and DevOps, organizations can achieve shorter development cycles, enhanced product quality, and ultimately, greater customer satisfaction. Embracing these practices is crucial for staying competitive in today’s rapidly evolving digital landscape. Hurix.com helps you with your test automation framework and other requirements.
