Test Automation
Software development is evolving every day: richer and more complex user interfaces, shorter development cycles, increasing complexity of architecture, … The need for a tailored (software) test automation process is inevitable. In today’s fast-to-market world, efficient software test automation is indispensable. It increases the application’s time-to-market, quality and coverage.
Possibilities
Test automation services
1
Automated test framework
A custom framework, tailored to your needs and technology stack. Benefits: increased code reusage, faster scripting, higher portability and reduced maintenance.
2
Visual automation testing
Evaluate and compare visible application output. Benefits: less coding, faster scripting, higher coverage and reduced maintenance. Powered by AI this becomes even more powerful.
3
Continuous testing / DevOps
All our test automation services can be integrated with your CI/CD pipelines to detect critical issues and block branch deployment before it breaks your product in production.
4
Automated API testing
Proactive API test automation which run across all of your endpoints. Critical, because APIs are the primary interface to application logic and easier to maintain than UI tests.
5
Performance testing
Determine how your applications, hardware, networks, and databases will perform under a particular workload to improve speed, scalability, stability and reliability. Read more here.
6
UI automation
Functional automation for native, web or mobile applications by choosing the most appropriate test automation tool(s) or open-source libraries.
7
Embedded & IoT
We ensure your embedded systems are tested as they truly operate, in real-world conditions. From firmware validation to full hardware-in-the-loop setups (emBright), we help bridge the gap between software and physical hardware.
8
emBright
Integrate test automation and operational hardware. Run end-to-end tests on integrated systems where software, hardware, sensors, and actuators work together seamlessly. Test under real-world conditions, accelerate validation, and reduce implementation risks.

Test automation tools come with a price, what about the 💸?
The cost varies because it depends on several factors.
However, we believe in creating the perfect solution for you. This could mean using open source tools or using a pre-built test automation framework.Can you help me decide if I would benefit from test automation?
Certainly! We’ve developed a short 2-minute test:
Are customizations possible?
In the past we’ve created some very creative solutions to incorporate different things, from interfaces to home automation to reading a car dashboard. Let’s aim high together!
We even have a custom made Brightest test automation framework, adjustable to your needs. You can read about it here.I want to train my internal staff, is that possible?
We offer several test automation oriented trainings on our academy website. Of course, we also offer coaching tracks and coaching on demand to assist you.
How do I know if my organization is ready to implement test automation?
We advise starting with an assessment executed by an Automation Strategy Expert, more info can be found on the BrightScan page. It gives an objective analysis of your current software quality/test automation efforts and provides insight in which actions to take first.
