7 Incredible Test Automation Trends For 2022 (Also Continue In 2023)
In the recent years of the technological revolution, automation testing has grabbed the limelight. Although manual testing still holds an important position in the software testing process, automation is quickly replacing several nuances of this time-consuming and error-prone testing approach. For example, test data automation is a great achievement for improving the SDLC.

3. Smart test execution
Previously, the software testing process involved devoting hundreds of hours to execute a
multitude of tests against each build. But smart test execution is quickly changing the testing
scenario.

Smart test execution combs through your software codebase and searches for
modifications in your code. It then executes testing on the modifications to validate their
accuracy.
It introduces an added channel of compliance during the codebase testing. It
automatically identifies and defines the particular tests required to run for the particular
check-in. Therefore, the number of tests reduces drastically without compromising
quality.
Consequently, smart test execution saves significant time and costs and minimises
resource requirements in a particular testing process.
Hire experienced software professionals today to smoothly introduce advanced automation such
as AI, smart test execution, test data automation, etc.
4. Codeless automation testing
The next big technology that has taken the automation testing world by storm is codeless
automation. Software testers can now save considerable time by automating the mechanisms
for writing and executing test scripts.

A report by Future Market Insights highlights the demand for cordless automation
testing. According to the report, codeless automation testing demand will increase at
15.5% CAGR between 2021 and 2031 and is expected to reach US$ 93.6 billion
globally.
Codeless automated testing eliminates the need to write thousands of code lines,
regardless of the application's type and size.
Some benefits of codeless automation testing include the following:
●
●
●
Since the test cases don't use a code, non-technical stakeholders can analyse and
review them.
Individuals without any similarity with programming languages will also become capable
of generating and building test cases.
Since the learning curve is minimal, test case formation can be spectacular fast, making
the entire automation process quick and efficient.
Codeless testing automation combined with efficient test data management can reap superior
results in the application engineering domain.
