01 02 03 04
Deep understanding of
your project
requirements such as:
➢ Project type
➢ Scope of project
➢ Technical Expertise
➢ Need for automation
Consider existing tool
as benchmark. Ex.
Selenium
➢ Understand pros &
cons
➢ Evaluate &
determine the best
tool
Consider key criteria like:
➢ Easy to use
➢ OS compatibility
➢ Platform support
➢ Multiple languages
➢ Budget
➢ Test reporting
In the last step:
➢ Using the criteria in
previous steps create
a matrix comparing
the shortlisted tools
➢ Keep currently using
tool as benchmark

12. Static Testing Tools
✓ Tools that test software
without executing it.
✓ Involves analysing code,
documentation for syntax,
consistency etc.
Dynamic Testing Tools
✓ Tools Interact with software
while execution.
✓ Provides information about
programs at different events
and scenarios.

Open Source Tools
are free to use to tool
with source code
available on internet
Vendor Tools
are developed by
companies that come
with licenses to use,
and often cost money
In House Tools
are build by
companies for their
own use, rather than
purchasing other
tools

There are various tools and online resources to help testers build tests for mobile devices,
record and run automated UI and unit tests for mobile apps and code libraries.
Software development teams can use web-based management tools to manage their projects,
testing resources, record test results and generate reports.
To test and verify the performance of services under load, developers can perform load and
stress tests. For that they use variety of load testing tools
