The Marlabs Automation Framework uses 3 projects and integrates with the open source Test Link test management tool. The framework includes a Java Swings UI controller application for handling test script execution and taking input from exported Test Link XML files. An automation test suite is built using core Java for executing test scripts and generating reports. A J2EE web project generates online results reports using Apache Tomcat. The framework generates results in Excel, XML, HTML formats as well as online web reports. Skills required include core Java, web programming, databases, Test Link, and Selenium.

3. Framework Overview
Automation framework is implemented using 3 Projects & Integration to Open
Source Test Management tool – Test Link.
.
Project 1 : Java Swings Application
UI controller is build using the Java swings application for handling the
test scripts for execution, which takes the Input as XML exported file
from Test link.
Project 2 : Java Automation test suit
Automation scripts are build on core java, which is responsible for
execution of test scripts & generating reports
Project 3 : J2EE Web project
Which is responsible for generating the online results report, which is
deployed using Apache Tomcat, a open source web server.

4. Test Link Tool
TestLink is a Open Source web-based test management software. All the
Automation test cases are written & maintained in Test Link Project
.
