Abstract

Web technologies have developed rapidly because web application is currently leading the trends of software development. A web-based application is a program that is accessed over a network connection, rather than existing within a device’s memory, hence detecting its failures is different from other software systems. Many approaches and tools have been proposed for web testing, however, introducing new frameworks is still an emerging topic in this field. This paper proposes an automation framework running in Java platform for web testing, called jFAT, which integrates with Selenium and TestNG. The paper also illustrates the use of framework with the Bank application case study.
