See how you can use the new integration of Autify and Bitrise to create and run tests by simply interacting with your iOS app on Autify.

This speed of change will only continue to accelerate as new technologies like artificial intelligence, IoT, and telematics become more deeply integrated into the insurance industry. But how can insurers deliver the omni-channel, digital-first experience today’s customers demand? The answer lies in connected insurance. What is connected insurance?

Test Automation is a necessary precondition for high-quality modern development. Testing and test automation must be integrated into the software delivery processes to give the team the right level of feedback, at the right time, and to ensure high-quality software. One of the biggest challenges of building a test automation framework that works on a long-term, scalable basis, is that it requires fundamentally different conditions compared to a predominantly manual testing approach.

Test Automation is a software testing approach that uses automation technologies to control test execution rather than a human tester. The actual test findings are then compared to projected or expected outcomes. Automated testing improves productivity and reduces time-to-market for your initiatives.

Recently we had a chance to work with several software testing teams to help them get started with their test automation endeavors. The teams consist of mostly manual testers, and some who had experience with test automation before, but none of them were familiar with programming like developers. The applications are mostly web based, with companion mobile apps.

Manually testing an application is time-consuming, costly, and difficult to scale as your application grows: as you add more features to your application, you have to add more functional tests. And getting those additional tests done usually means adding headcount. Automated functional testing can speed up the testing process, provide more consistent results, and give one person the ability to manage the testing workload of five or more manual testers.
