Execution of test cases in di_erent OS versions for each release was di_cult and often did not meet the release schedule.
Scope
Proposed to create a Test Automation Framework that could
Execute different types of test cases in various machines simultaneously.
Include reusable components which can be used in other modules.
Configure various types of test machines
Efficiently undertake exception handling.
Integrate to test automation scripts easily
Solution
Developed a validation automation suite with a vision of comprehensive automation strategy
Provided a Test Manager component which execute/schedule test jobs to run whenever the test resource or Unit Under Test (UUT) is available
Created a Test Center which can distribute test jobs to the Test Managers in different test sites.
Built a common library module which enhances the reusability perspective of the framework
Created a Utility component and Configuration component which can restart/hibernate/sleep the testing devices and configure the devices for test execution
