In this presentation, Neha introduces the concept of automation and associated trends.Her interest lies in application of automation in the quality tools of any organization.
2. INTRODUCTION
The means of AUTOMATION is to make automatic control.
To make automation, some platform is necessary to have.
Automation has been achieved by mechanical , electrical , computers usually in combination.
Like in company some automation tools are used.
The whole idea about having automation is to decrease in the time and save cost of a project or The biggest
benefit is that it saves labour, however, it is also used to save energy and materials and to improve quality,
accuracy and precision.
Types of Automation
i. Open and closed loop
ii. Sequential control and logical sequence / System state control
iii. Computer control
3. TRENDS
TYPES OF TRENDS:
i. The Internet of Things (IoT)
ii. Big Data
iii. Cloud Computing
iv. Industry 4.0.
The Internet of Things (IoT) is about connecting industrial devices together and taking advantage of
the connectivity for business improvement.
My focus is in test automation. The challenge is in learning the new technology and understanding how to
carefully design for systems that dwarf even the largest fieldbuses.
As the IoT concept continues to develop, vendors and standards groups will take care of the hard stuff. The
technology will evolve to accommodate the growth—more automation and less manual work.
4. INTEREST AREA
I want to work with the tools of automation.
Even the most conscientious tester will make mistakes during monotonous manual testing.
Automated tests perform the same steps precisely every time they are executed and never forget to
record detailed results.
Software tests have to be repeated often during development cycles to ensure quality. Every time
source code is modified software tests should be repeated. For each release of the software it may be
tested on all supported operating systems and hardware configurations. Manually repeating these
tests is costly and time consuming. Once created, automated tests can be run over and over again at
no additional cost and they are much faster than manual tests. Automated software testing can
reduce the time to run repetitive tests from days to hours. A time savings that translates directly into
cost savings.
Being a fresher I have a complete theoretical knowledge and if I will get a chance to explore myself
in such a reputed company with a good automation tools then I will p[rove myself a good asset to the
organisation.
I want to work with the quality tools provided in the organisation.
