Chapter 13: Complementing Code-Based Testing with Low-Code Test Automation

While the open source community offers a wide range of coding test frameworks as highlighted in this book, there are also new and emerging intelligent testing solutions that can base their record-and-playback abilities with self-healing machine learning (ML)-driven features to provide an additional layer of test automation coverage. In this chapter, we will learn about the available options in the market, the relevant places and use cases to use such tools within a development pipeline, and caveats or pitfalls to be aware of.

Through our study of the four leading testing frameworks that we've covered in this book, Selenium, Playwright, Cypress, and Puppeteer, we've seen that each of these frameworks have some level of low-code/no-code capabilities. Within this chapter, we will highlight these specific capabilities but mostly provide an overview of the additional intelligent codeless test automation...
