A comparative study of automation testing tools for web applications

In today’s world, websites and web applications have become a necessity for all kinds of businesses and commercial enterprises. Software development is an important step of designing the software, ensuring that the designed software fulfills its practical needs and that it is free of bugs and errors. Software testing plays an important role in the software development life cycle because it contributes to the overall quality of the product. This guarantees the consistency and standard of the applications. It is important to be mindful of time and costs when evaluating a program. Therefore most testers have moved from a manual testing to automated testing to reduce time and cost. Then selecting a software-testing tool for automated testing that best fit a project is important yet a challenging task. The aim of this paper is evaluation and comparison of automation testing tools used for web application testing. In this paper will be analyzed and compared different features of two testing tools: The Katalon Studio and Selenium.
