Desenvolvimento de Testes Automatizados e Testes Manuais para um Sistema Web: Uma Análise Comparativa

Abstract

Software development is a highly complex task and due to a series of factors, problems such as bugs and errors end up being inserted in the software. One way to minimize the occurrence of these errors is through software testing that uses techniques and different types of tests to discover the defects inserted in the software. Thus, there was a need to use automated and manual tests, in a web system used by the Expotec event, which was designed with a low rate of tests. After performing automated and manual tests, there was a need for a comparative analysis between these two approaches and verifying which of them would add more benefits to the product being tested. In order to carry out this analysis, a bibliographic research was carried out in online repositories along with the realization and comparison of tests carried out on Expotec's web system, after collecting the data and comparing them, it was possible to affirm the need to use the automated approach.
