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?
