QA/Automation/Projects/Test Creation
Overview
Given the continuous increasing number of features and changes made from a version to another in firefox, manual testing over and over again off all this could be difficult and time consuming. Test automation can automate some repetitive but necessary tasks in a formalized testing process already in place, or add additional testing that would be difficult to perform manually.
Our goal is to increase the number of automated tests and low down the human work done when testing.
