Author(s):Binu Maharjan, Dr. Sandeep Kautish
Abstract:With this dissertation, the importance and essence of regression testing is highlighted. Though the selected IT companies has hands on automated testing there is still scope for the development of test scripts skills and experiences on automated tools to match with the pace of software development technology. The possibility of the uses of automation in regression testing is endless. This can be the key part of continuous integration for agile software development method. Despite of various challenges in automated regression testing, one must overcome those challenges with the proper knowledge, techniques, tools and implementation of automated regression testing in agile software environment. This paper concludes the findings and results of the dissertation along with the conclusion and recommendation for further research in the associated subject matter. This dissertation is dedicated in the automation regression testing field. The limitations of this research can be tackled with proper test scripts, tools and encouragement in the field of automation as it has a greater scope with feasibility in agile software development methodology.
