Abstract :
´Cloud testing´ or ´Testing on the Cloud´ means transforming the traditional testing lifecycle phases while adapting to the new quality risks in the cloud environment. Additional testing almost always involves the use of the time and energy of resources and personnel, which comes at a cost. Hence, automating this testing provides significant benefits in terms of cost and time savings. Test Automation-as-a-Service (TAaaS) can further automate the execution of a web application without the hassle of purchasing tools, setting up environments or learning new coding languages. The benefits include utilizing the most up-to-date test frameworks available, hosted in the cloud, and without incurring any test tool licensing costs, this service gives a rapid, low cost entry to automation. This paper talks about the advantages of test automation as a service as a delivery model, which is especially beneficial for emerging markets.
