Pattern summary

Determine which automation tool is best for you by trying them side by side

Category

Management

Context

Use this pattern when you have to decide which tool or framework is best for testing your Software Under Test (SUT).

Description

If you have to select the tool that works best with the SUT and you have more than one candidate, the easiest way to chose is to try them out side by side. In this way it will be immediately apparent which tool serves your needs best.
Use this pattern also if you have to select a TEST AUTOMATION FRAMEWORK.

Implementation

Automate a STEEL THREAD with all the relevant tools and compare the results:

  • Which tool can drive the SUT better?
  • Which tool is easier to learn?
  • Which tool is easier to use?

Issues addressed by this pattern

INADEQUATE TOOLS

Experiences

If you have used this pattern, please add your name and a brief story of how you used this pattern: your context, what you did, and how well it worked - or how it didn't work!
