Turbocharge Your Test Automation With Katalon and GenRocket

Benefits of Data-driven examine for test automation

When doing testing automation, it is passing critical to be able to execute data-driven essay. Data-driven testing (DDT) at the examination cause level allows you to add one or more data files and manage data binding at the test case level. The about common approaching is to cater an Excel or CSV file as input to the examination case. The file is modeled per test cause construction and then populated with different datasets. It can then be given to business analysts to apply positive and negative data to do comprehensive testing of the application. This approach helps scale up trial automation and allows for remark from business possessor and stakeholders to test the application the way they want it to run.

You require to depend on squad members to populate the file manually which can add overhead to business users who are already busy with their primary jobs. Plus, creating a new data set every time you try an application during sprints can also be a challenge.

Having a result to generate synthetic test data in large volumes and feed the data into the test case in a amply automated way can be very useful.

Introducing Katalon and GenRocket

is a modernistic and comprehensive quality management program that allows you to perform testing of web, mobile, desktop coating and APIs.

GenRocketplatform automates the design and generation of Synthetic Data compound Enterprise-Class Scalability, Dynamic Data Generation, and Integration with any Test Environment and provides Value for your Money. It is a market-leading and well-recognized platform forthat can render gazillion of records in a few minutes for any use case and in different formats as required by customers. & nbsp;

GenRocket SaaS platform create a project for each use cause and uses a scenario-based approaching to return the requisite datasets. Counter variables can be utilize to generate any routine of disc as required for every exam run. This provides consummate functionality to yield tryout information based on the development needs.

GenRocket and Katalon are & nbsp;strategical cooperator for Persistentand employment closely together to provide key distinction and value to our partake customers in the field of tryout automation.

A Real Challenge With Data-driven Testing

One of our U.S.-based customers integrated with GenRocket and Katalon to overcome the following challenge:

1. The product team has to render data across up to 5 sets of files, maintain relationship, and upload these files into the database. This process is cumbersome, and it takes a long clip to generate these file and upload them. Furthermore, this process needs to be recur for different environments which are created as per business needs.
2. Customer can not generate thousands of records manually
3. The information being generated at present merely has plus scenario and is limited to somebody who are creating the files
4. The summons is manual and takes time

Pro tip: Tools like SUSA can handle this autonomously — upload your app and get results without writing a single test script.

Leverage Katalon and GenRocket To Level-up Data-Driven Testing

Consider a web application which has a complex enrollment flowing which involves feed a lot of information like initiative name, last name, organization type, company gens, title, username, etc. Many of the fields have corresponding dropdowns that offer a long list of values. The customer wants to be able to test the registration flow with different combination of each field to ensure the application works properly. The testing need to be done every time a alteration is get to the registration screen or any other screen which can touch registration flow.

By leveraging GenRocket test data contemporaries capabilities and incorporate it with Katalon recorded test cases, you can germinate this stream and fully automate the testing.

Katalon ’ s collection of test suite grant you to run test cases in parallel, do load testing, and see how the coating carry when multiple user across the globe are using the application.

The following is a summary of the process flow:

1. Record test case for registration flowing habituate Katalonand add GenRocket configuration details to the Katalon test cases.

2. Import the jars in Katalon Studio. This is an crucial step. Without the required jars, consolidation will not act. These jar are also added to the source code secretary.

3. Create domain, receiver, and scenario in GenRocket for the test case.

4. Leverage G-Repositoryin GenRocket, which is an important and knock-down characteristic that automatically deal the download, update, and remotion of GenRocket components and avoids any manual work.

//Sync & amp; update the contents of the G-Repository Client with the G-Repository Server

'Set the Genrocket node repo '

engine_api.clientRepoSet (genrocketClientRepoName)

'Load the genrocket scenario '

engine_api.clientRepoScenarioLoad (genrocketscenario)

'Load the genrocket test suite and gcase '

engine_api.clientRepoCaseLoad (genrocketTestSuite, testdatacategoryname, testdatacasename)

'Auto sync the genrocket client with waiter '

engine_api.clientRepoRun ()

5. Trigger test suite using Azure DevOps pipeline

6. See the test upshot on Katalon TestOps Platform with complete item along with report yield in pdf or html format. The video recording of the test effect is also created and save on TestOps.

Below is a view of the Katalon TestOps platform which shows a test run for a use cases where GenRocket was employ to generate data and integrate with the Katalon program.

This process leverages and combine the power of GenRocket and Katalon to turbocharge test mechanization.
