7 Innovative AI Test Automation Tools for the Future: The Third Wave - Automation Testing Made Easy

When I look back at my career in test automation, there are three distinct periods, or "waves" that come to mind. The first wave is filled with some good old-fashioned vendor tools like WinRunner, Silk Test, and QTP. In my eyes, these solutions started it all and set the stage for future testing automation innovations like Selenium. Selenium began the second wave of test automation, focusing more on developers and programming best practices when creating automated tests. But truth be told–in the quiet times when they think no one is listening–you can hear testers whispering the same curses they did about vendor tools: flaky tests and maintenance driving them crazy. The current buzz these days is around AI and Machine Learning.
