Assert! Assert! Add more to your automation script
Let's figure out about Hard Assertions
Assertions are the guide sticks in test automation. Hence the assertions play the most vital role in test automation to identify issues in the system under test. Adding more and meaningful assertions will offer reliability in the functionality of the application.
More assertions → more checkpoints → more functional validations.
Have you been only using hard assertions all the time? Confused? Let’s figure it out today.
Mainly there are two types of assertions.
- Hard Assertions
- Soft Assertions
Hard Assertions will not continue the test script if there is an assertions failure and will fail the script right on the spot where the failure happened. Hard assertions are hard stoppers.
On the other hand, soft assertions would continue the test execution even there are discrepancies and fail after validating all the assertions. Check out more on soft assertions.
