In this presentation, Manisha introduces automation testing and according to her Selenium might be the next big thing in that area. Having already worked with selenium, Manisha's interest area lies in the same domain.

AUTOMATION (selenium)

2. Introduction
 Automation is the use of control systems and
information technologies reducing the need of human
invasion.
 In the field of software testing , test automation
 Test automation can automate some repetitive but
necessary tasks in a formalized testing process already
in place, or add additional testing that would be
difficult to perform manually.

3. Trends
 Autolt which works only on windows and is not a
open source
 eggPlant Functional works only on Windows,
Linux and OS X.
 Selenium is one of the latest trends being used for
automation and testing .It is open source.

4. I think Selenium will make a big impact in
the coming years as it is an open source project.
Selenium is probably the best option for automated
testing of Websites today. It is becoming increasingly
popular and it is the first choice of automation testers
as well as organizations for automating the testing of
Web-based applications for both the GUI as well as
the functionality. Selenium can also be used as
a unit testing tool for JavaScript.

5. Interested Areas
 I am interested in automation and testing and
would like to work in that field
 I can work with selenium IDE and even with
selenium webdriver .
 Automation can be used in many ways such as
controlling street lights (i.e. to switch them on and
off at a particular time) , automation can also be
used in companies to backup they data at the end
of each day.

6.  Automation can also be used to on the servers and
turn them off instead of manually doing them.
 I would like to do automation and testing using
selenium.
 I believe that through automation one can use
they time in something more productive once a
code is automated one need not have to waste a lot
of time on doing the same work over and over
again.
