Adoption of automating tests has not happened as quickly as organizations need. As more companies move to implementing Agile Development as their software development lifecycle, more features are implemented to production quicker. This leaves less time for full regression testing of the system, but yet this still should occur. Manual testers need to transform into test automation testers as well.
Test automation professionals are largely believed to have deep knowledge of a development scripting language. Many manual testers believe they have to learn a development language in addition to the functionality of the tool to be effective. Add to that the in-depth or SME knowledge one must have for their system under test, along with development and management support required, and it may not seem clear where to start.
Learn how to make this jump as a manual tester and focus on the right areas first such as, automation test structure, object recognition and interrupting the results.
