Modular : The framework should be adaptable to change.
Reusable : The commonly used methods or utilities should be kept in a common file which is easily accessible to all the scripts.
Consistent : The test suite should be written in a consistent format by following the coding practices.
Independent : The test scripts should be written in such a way that they are independent of each other.
Logging : It is good to have implemented the logging feature in the framework.
Reporting : Once the scripting is done, we can have the results and reports sent via email.
Integration : Automation framework should be such that it is easy to integrate with other applications
