AI in test automation enhances traditional approaches by incorporating artificial intelligence techniques like machine learning, deep learning, natural language processing, computer vision, and more.
Testers can create test scripts based on natural language processing and leave the generation of test scripts on AI.
AI-based systems also help testers to analyze historical test data and code changes to prioritize critical test cases.
The different components of AI in test automation include machine learning, natural language processing, data analytics, and robotic process automation.
Machine learning generates automated tests by training a model with an organization's dataset and creating output while the user validates and ensures usability.
The use cases of AI in test automation include test case generation, test data generation and optimization, visual testing, self-healing mechanisms, defect prediction, and test reporting and analysis.
Test automation tools utilizing AI include KaneAI, testRigor, Tricentis Tosca, and TestCraft.
KaneAI is an AI-powered testing assistant that can generate tests with the help of natural language.
Best practices for AI test automation include regularly training and updating AI models, verifying the accuracy and precision of algorithms, testing of the algorithm, and preventing security loopholes.
AI in test automation can't replace human testers in areas requiring creativity, contextual understanding, and critical thinking.
