    You may want to consider this solution if you are already using HP ALM and HP UFT. It's a nice add on and encourages the team to think more on building small component based tests and promote lot of reuse. Also, if your team want business analysts or any non technical people build tests based on the flows, its probably the best solution available now. On the down side, the execution times if you have too many components are not great and on top of that you have to pay extra for the licensing. You can also build such frameworks using more open source solutions like bdd solutions.

    Same test case scripts can be executed on different mobiles irrespective of operating systems and language it supports. This covers a wide range of devices (Android, iOS, Blackberry etc) on which automated testing can be performed in very less time. The test scripts are written written using keyword-based Script Once Technology. The creation of scripts are easy. It saves time and effort. Repetitive testing on each iteration would be now be less tedious. This would also allow QA to focus on quality. It would expand test case coverage in the application and finally release reliable/robust application. In all, improving the app quality.

    Cons
    Discontinued Products
    • If you are using components for automation testing, the time it takes to load a new component is too high and it sucks off the benefit of component based testing.
    • You want to have many components in a test and so a BA can also create automated tests easily but too many components takes too long to executed .
    • It comes with a cost. You can simply build a modular framework even without this framework and probably more efficiently.

    • It has a lot of room for improvements in terms of reporting and integration with other reporting and defect tools.
    • It should have the capability of capturing charts data.
    • It should be able to do some scenarios that only manual testers can do. Like - use of camera and touch ID features.

    The idea for building a component based modular test framework is great and it would be great add-on to HP tools if the add-on efficiency is made high and the cost is low.

    Perfecto has a wide array of mobile devices we can chose from. Automation is easier using OCR technology. The test script generated detailed report of the executed test script at the end with vast variety of information such as actual results, screen captures in digital format, continuous video recording of the entire script and graphs showing statistics about the execution
