What is ATAF?

ATAF is a tool agnostic testing solution for validating complex business processes. ATAF uses a Behavioural Driven Development approach to help non-technical users validate business processes. It supports GUI, API and DB test automation.

  • Large repository of keywords for a common, scalable knowledge base that promotes reuse of functional libraries.
  • Smart tagging of test cases to allow selection for execution based on “release objectives”.
  • Dashboard providing visibility into project status, test execution results & analysis.
  • Supports “continuous integration testing” and seamlessly works with Build tools
  • Single point maintenance methodology ensures maintainable test scripts.
  • Allows non-technical users to execute scripts with limited handholding.
  • Supports GUI, API and DB test automation.

How ATAF Works

ATAF has been designed using all open-source tools. All the globally accepted standard technologies wrapped into a framework which provides business solutions to all test scenarios eligible for test automation.

CI/CD & ATAF

Areteans has a strong focus on DevOps and automation– We have several proven built-in test and deployment accelerators and best practices that complements Pegasystems own DevOps tool to achieve high operational efficiency in Pega implementation lifecycle.

Deployment Manager is a simple, intuitive, and ready-to-use application that offers built-in DevOps capabilities to users. It leverages Pegasystems’s market-leading case management technology to manage an automated orchestration engine, enabling you to build and run continuous integration and continuous delivery (CI/CD) pipelines in a model-driven manner.

Deployments can be performed involving application updates with the click of a button, without the need for third-party automation services such as Jenkins or Bamboo. Fully automated pipelines help to significantly reduce the lead time to deliver value to end users.

Using a standardized way to deploy application changes with guardrail-related and testing-related best practices that are built into the out-of-the-box CI/CD models results in substantial operational efficiencies.

How this optimizes the test automation process:

  • Adherence to Best Practices
  • Disciplined approach – Guardrails, Unit Tests
  • Release management effort is reduced.
  • Automated report generation & send to stakeholders.
  • CI/CD practice will reduce time to production.

Why ATAF

ATAF has delivered 30% improvement in productivity and 40% reduction in test maintenance efforts in numerous test automation engagements. ATAF also seamlessly integrates with all the DevOps tools and open-source test tools. ATAF has delivered regression suites that run into 100 of test automation scripts that were executed overnight in an unattended fashion. Pega specific generic library enables users to develop and design automated scripts in quick time, resulting into faster time to market.

Usage of smart/adaptive automation techniques

Why is it needed:     

Regression scenarios require specific test data that depend on various delegation rules which are frequently changed by users. Test data management is required.

How is it achieved:

Adaptive Automation Code is developed to get the required values from Runtime table (delegation table) or HTML DOM and enter the respective values for required UI/Screens.

Benefits:

  • As data is fetched in runtime, no need to maintain test data.
  • Reduction of execution time for regression test cycle.
  • It can be used for multiple environments without any major changes
