Why is Low Code Automation Testing Gaining
Popularity?
In the past, companies mainly relied on quality
engineers to create the test scripts required to
maintain operations. However, problems inevitably
occurred, especially as labor scarcity spread
and exposed many firms to broken or ineffective
procedures because of a lack of confidential
information and personnel.
Low code automation solutions are available to
assist businesses in addressing such problems by
gradually reducing the reliance on testing teams
and enabling non- technical business users to
easily develop test cases. The approach of low
code automation for testing is quickly gaining
acceptance in most industries. Low code and no
code tools, like some sophisticated RPA
solutions, enable teams to connect to databases,
interface with email tools and payment systems,
and execute activities with a few mouse clicks.
This means that such tools can be easily used
for work that would otherwise require teams to
rely on tools like spreadsheets.

What Differs Low Code Automation from No Code
Automation? Automation with low and no code has
some similarities but differs from each other.
Low code automation is the process of automating
business processes using software that doesnt
require a lot of writing, letting semi-technical
individuals gain practical experience with
automation tasks while lowering dependency on
IT/development teams.
The low code automation platform provides room
for testers to mold them as per the requirement
of the test scenario. Therefore, it could be even
ideal for complex test projects to enable
quicker delivery with minimal hand coding. While
no-code automation solutions allow users to
automate processes without the need for
traditional coding by using visual drag-and-drop
tools instead, they entirely do away with the
need for technical expertise. Their objective is
to increase their companys operational
flexibility. No code automation does away with
the requirement for specialists and gets beyond
the conventional time, money, and development
resource constraints that would otherwise delay
delivery dates. Benefits of Low-code Automation
for Modern Businesses Modern enterprise process
automation encompasses more than just automating
a single process or department. Nonetheless,
implementing end-to-end process automation in
all organizational divisions. This is a
never-ending technical problem

associated with a project as processes will keep
changing and evolving regardless of how well
everything is automated and operated. By
automating processes with a low-code platform,
businesses may create adaptive solutions at
scale and speed. Here are some advantages that a
modern business can gain from using low-code
automation. Collaboration between IT and
Business Using a common low-code platform, domain
experts can be integrated with the development
lifecycle. Users and developers may work
together, speak the same (visual) language, and
collaborate on solutions over time. Greater
ROI Some of the most difficult business
requirements can be met with low code automation
technologies. Premium apps are more likely to be
run on low code by firms who have a low
tolerance for outage and loss of data, as well as
the highest standards for continuing audits and
external security certification. Their commitment
to low-code solutions shows that
enterprise-ready low-code solutions are
available. Visibility and Control End-users who
automate operations generate a jumble of
high-risk circumstances. Developing solutions on
a low-code platform eliminates the shadow of IT
and ensures that all operations adhere to
internal and external norms. Reusable
Components Despite processes differing by
department, many have duties or actions that are
similar or identical. Good low-code process
automation systems can streamline workflows,
connectors, and elements developed for one
process inside another. Handy to Use The most
significant advantage of going with low code is
that it is easy to understand and doesnt need
an individual to have any technical background.
Developers can view what they are building in
real time and make changes as needed. It allows
you to start constructing right away, with the
ability to change on the fly and fully edit and
republish as desired. This also enables you to
keep up with legislative changes, market trends,
and client requests.
Reason Behind Low Code Test Automation Rising
Popularity

• Speed continues to be the fundamental driving
  force throughout the software engineering
  (CI/CD) lifecycle in todays DevOps/Agile-driven
  world. The testing industrys current
  environment expects higher quality output at a
  faster rate. The team of quality engineers and
  industry leaders frequently prefer testing tools
  and frameworks that require little to no coding
  as part of the testing script development
  process to meet the increasing challenge and
  speed up the automation testing process, such as
  low code, no code, and codeless automation
  approach (Although, most of the testing type are
  similar).
• The testing solutions that use a
  low-code/scriptless methodology enable test
  engineers/developers to construct test scripts
  without prior coding skills.
• Platforms centered on coding/programming are
  becoming obsolete due to the time required to
  construct the automation framework, the longer
  time required to produce the scripts, and also
  when it comes to testing, maintenance, and so
  on.
• However, keep in mind that the purpose of
  automated testing tools, such as low- code
  testing platforms and other comparable testing
  technologies (codeless, no- code), is to assist
  manual testers and not to entirely swap them out.
  It makes perfect sense that some cases would
  need to be tested manually because they would
  benefit from an experts human touch, which
  would allow for the most logical execution under
  various environmental conditions.
• Conclusion
• Low-code testing enables QA experts and business
  users to produce several test cases more quickly
  than would be possible with conventional coding.
  These platforms are used by businesses all over
  the world to improve customer experience and
  facilitate global risk management and compliance.
• In the end, choosing the appropriate low-code
  tool can greatly improve testing of contemporary
  enterprise system applications that include
  complicated business logic, automate workflow
  and other processes, integrate with pre-existing
  systems, and offer the user a pleasurable
  experience. Contact us at ImpactQA to discuss
  your future project ideas and implement low code
  automation testing for each of your software
  applications.
