Test Automation Services
As one of the leaders in test automation services, the principles along with years of software testing
experience have been codified into Indium Software’s IP-based test automation framework, called
accelerators – including iSafe and iMobi – whose key elements include:
Test Script Modularity
Test Library Architecture
Data-Driven Testing
Keyword-Driven or Table-Driven Testing
Hybrid Test Automation
These enable the following:
Shorter regression testing time and at competitive cost to enable quick release of software updates / new
releases
Very high standards of script development and documentation
Codifying best practices of different automation frameworks, wherein, the test management tools are
integrated with automation tool
Reliable, faster test execution, easy maintenance of the automated test scripts
Quicker and better RoI

Key Deliverables
During the test strategy/planning stage, the team identifies areas of test automation, the best test
automation framework suited for the purpose and providing an execution summary as a guideline for
the automation process and best test automation Approach.
Focus Areas
Define the process for the automation suite management and maintenance
Implement Test Automation Framework and develop Test Automation Suites for Smoke, Sanity &
Regression
Automation suite should ensure that, the application build is stable across all major / minor releases
which could include defect fixes or new feature enhancements and extend good test coverage
