Browser automation is the technique of programmatically launching a web application in a browser and automatically executing various actions, just as a regular user would. Browser testing gives you the speed and efficiency that would be impossible for a human tester. Protractor, Cypress, and Selenium are some of the popular tools used in-browser testing.
Some of the activities performed in browser automation are as follows :
* Navigate to the application URL and make sure it launches
* Test the various links on the web page and ensure they are not broken.
* Keep a record of the broken links on the page.
* Perform load and performance testing on your web application.
Launch multiple instances of the browsers with different test users and ensure that concurrent actions work as expected.
