Ranorex Interview Questions for Freshers/Ranorex Interview Questions and Answers for Freshers & Experienced

Is Automation testing a Black box testing or White-box testing?

Automation testing is mostly a black box testing as we just program the steps that a manual tester performs for application under test without knowing the low-level design or code of the application.

Sometimes, automated test scripts need access to the database details that are used in the application under test or some more coding details and thus can be a type of white-box testing.

Thus automated testing can be both black or white box type of testing depending on the scenarios in which automation is performed.

Can we do Automation testing without a framework? If yes, then why do we need a framework?

Yes, We can perform automation testing even without using a framework. We can just understand the tool that we are using for automation and program the steps in the programming language that tools support.

If we automate test cases without a framework then there won’t be any consistency in the programming scripts for test cases.

A framework is required to give a set of guidelines that everyone has to follow to have maintained readability, reusability, and consistency in the test scripts. A framework also provides one common ground for reporting and logging functionality.

Is Automation testing in agile Methodology useful or not?

Automation testing is useful for regression, smoke or sanity testing. All these types of testing in the traditional waterfall model happen at the end of the cycle and sometimes if there are not many enhancements to the application, we might not even have to do regression testing.

Whereas, in agile methodology, every iteration requires executing the regression test case as some new functionalities is added.

Also, the regression suite itself keeps growing after each sprint as the functional test cases of the current sprint module need to be added to the regression suite for the next sprint.

Thus, Automation testing in agile methodology is very useful and helps in achieving maximum test coverage in less time of the sprint.

What do you mean by V-Model in software testing?

A framework, in general, is a set of guidelines. A set of guidelines, assumptions, concepts and coding practices for creating an execution environment in which the tests will be automated, is known as an Automation testing framework.

An automation testing framework is responsible for creating a test harness with a mechanism to connect with the application under test, take input from a file, execute the test cases and generate the reports for test execution. An automation testing framework should be independent of the application and it should be easy to use, modify or extend.

What is the Waterfall Model in the software development lifecycle (SDLC)?

Waterfall Model is a sequential model that divides software development into pre-defined phases. It is the initial approach that works on the concept of finishing each phase of testing before commencing the next phase. This process avoids overlapping between any phases as the output of the current phase will be the input of the next phase.

* Tests that are seldom executed.
* Exploratory testing
* Usability testing
* Test which is executed quickly when done manually.

Posted Date:- 2021-11-18 12:09:25

Can you tell some good coding practices while automation?

Some of the good coding practices include:

* Add appropriate comments.
* Identify the reusable methods and write it in a separate file.
* Follow the language-specific coding conventions.
* Maintain the test data in a separate file.
* Run your scripts regularly.

Posted Date:- 2021-11-18 12:08:13

What are the different types of frameworks?

Different types of frameworks includes:

* Keyword-driven framework
* Data-Driven framework
* Hybrid Framework
* Linear Scripting

Posted Date:- 2021-11-18 12:07:18

Why do you want to keep this kind of information in a separate file and not directly in the code?

URL, Login, and passwords are the kind of fields that are used very often and these change as per the environment and authorization. In case we hardcode it into our code, we have to change it in every file which has its reference.

In case if there are more than 100 files, then it becomes very difficult to change all the 100 files and this, in turn, can lead to errors. So this kind of information is maintained in a separate file so that updating becomes easy.

Posted Date:- 2021-11-18 12:06:03

Where will you maintain information like URL, login, password?

This information should always be maintained in a separate file.

Posted Date:- 2021-11-18 11:59:26

What generally is the structure of a framework?

Normally the structure should have – (It would differ from project to project)

* A “src” (source) folder having the actual test scripts.
* A”lib” (library) folder having all the libraries and common methods.
* A “class” folder having all the class file (in-case using java).
* A “log” folder having the log file(s).
* A file/folder having all the web element Ids.
* A file containing the URL, environment and login information.

Posted Date:- 2021-11-18 11:57:44

What are the different types of the Automation tool that you are aware of?

Open source tool like Selenium, JMeter, etc.

Paid tools like QTP, Load Runner, Ranorex, RFT, and Rational Robot.

Posted Date:- 2021-11-18 11:56:43

Can you do without a framework?

Frameworks are guidelines and not mandatory rules, so we can do without a framework, but if we create it and follow it, enhancing and maintaining would be easy to implement.

Posted Date:- 2021-11-18 11:55:23

What are the attributes of a good framework?

The characteristics include:

* Modular: The framework should be adaptable to change. Testers should be able to modify the scripts as per the environment or login information change.
* Reusable: The commonly used methods or utilities should be written in a common file that is accessible to all the scripts.
* Consistent: The suite should be written in a consistent format by following all the accepted coding practices.
* Independent: The scripts should be written in such a way that they are independent of each other. In case one test fails, it should not hold back the remaining test cases (unless it is a login page)
* Logger: It is good to have implemented the logging feature in the framework. This would help in case our scripts run for longer hours (say nightly mode), if the script fails at any point of time, having the log file will help us to detect the location along with the type of the error.
* Reporting: It is good to have the reporting feature automatically embedded into the framework. 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 like continuous integration or triggering the automated script as soon as the build is deployed.

Posted Date:- 2021-11-18 11:39:05

Can we run an automation test without installing Ranorex?

In order to identify the tool for Automation testing in your project:

a) Understand your project requirements thoroughly and identify the testing scenarios that you want to automate.

b) Search for the list of tools that support your project’s requirements.

c) Identify your budget for the automation tool. Select the tools within your budget.

d) Identify if you already have skilled resources for the tools. If you don’t have the necessary skilled resources then identify the cost for training the existing resources or hiring new resources.

Posted Date:- 2021-11-18 11:38:31

Can you achieve 100% automation?

100% automation would be difficult to achieve because there would be many edge test cases and some cases that are executed seldom. Automating these cases which are not executed that often will not add value to the automated suite.

Posted Date:- 2021-11-18 11:37:22

How do you identify the test cases which are suitable for automation?

Identifying the appropriate test cases for automation is the most important step towards automation.
