1. What is Automation Testing?

Automation testing is the process of automating the execution of manual test cases with the help of automation tools like., Selenium WebDriver, Protractor, Mobile Testing, Postman, JMeter, etc. 

2. Why Automation Testing is needed?

Automation Testing helps us to reduce our effort of testing and cost by automating repetitive testing cycles. And by doing this, software release cycles can be much faster and software products are readily available in the market. Automation testing generally covers Functional and Performance Testing.
  • Functional Automation - Automated Regression Testing is a good example of functional automation. Manual Regression testing requires a lot of testing effort and time. We can cut down the time duration of regression testing by automating most of the regression test cases. Remember, 100% automation is not possible.
  • Non-Functional Automation - Non-functional testing means performance testing in our case. We can also automate performance test cases by using automation tools., e.g., JMeter.

3. What is Selenium? Why Dev took the name Selenium?

Selenium is a suite of different automation testing tools like., Selenium IDE, Selenium RC, WebDriver, and Selenium Grid. Selenium Introductory video explained it all.

What is Robot Class in Selenium WebDriver?

Image
Selenium can't interact with Window dialogs on it's own. You all must know that Selenium can only handle browser windows and not OS windows. So, when we have to upload any file on a webpage and as soon as we click on the Browse or Upload button, a windows tab opens up from which we have to select the file. We cannot handle that windows tab directly with Selenium WebDriver. But we can use other libraries and integrate them with Selenium code to handle window based dialogs. Robot class is one of them. We can use Robot class to upload or download a file using selenium. What is Robot Class in Selenium WebDriver? Robot Class is used to perform Keyboard actions. It has direct support to perform actions like press and release key. Robot class has key codes for each key present on the keyboard. So, if we want to press any key, then we need to call that key code. In automation we make use of Robot class to handle Windows tabs by interacting with them via virtual keyboard. One i
