How ServiceNow Test Automation Speeds Up The Development Process

Table of contents

ServiceNow is a cloud-based software that allows users to run operations management and IT services on a single platform. The SaaS platform automates case management, operations management, and problem management workflows.

Its flexible development environment enables users to build, test, and implement automated workflows. You can also optimize these processes and govern them at scale. When bugs and broken code occur, it will be up to your IT team to resolve them quickly.

This blog will discuss why ServiceNow requires continuous testing to avoid significant downtime and poor customer and employee experience. We鈥檒l also show how ServiceNow test automation allows you to speed up testing and achieve end-to-end coverage.

ServiceNow Testing Requirements

The ServiceNow platform delivers two major release families per year. Its management team also releases new UI, apps, and features every release cycle. ServiceNow recommends that users stay current and upgrade at least once per year.

When changes occur within an application, it's well-known that it may disrupt its existing functionality.

Testing the upgraded ServiceNow platform and all business-critical processes to ensure they鈥檙e operational will require a significant amount of time. The time and human resources invested in manual testing and fixing each instance will increase when bugs occur.

In some cases, regression testing can take weeks or even months to complete. This lengthy process requires every effort to conserve time and resources by delegating repetitive tasks to automated testing.听

Automating ServiceNow Testing

Manual testing can be time-consuming, complex, and expensive. Manual testing is challenging to scale and is known for compromising deployment speed. ServiceNow test automation will streamline your overall testing process and will:

  • Allow testers to focus on complex testing sequences and developers to focus on valuable customizations and innovations.
  • Help developers spot and resolve defects faster, mitigating the risks of releasing low-quality software to customers and employees.听
  • Reduce rates of human error associated with manual testing.
  • Reduce the preparation and execution time involved in testing.
  • Ensure that your business-critical processes are operational.听
  • Improve regression testing.
  • Improve software release quality.

All repetitive test cases that do not require human evaluation should be automated to save time and stay competitive. After successfully implementing a software test automation strategy, test administrators will notice significant improvements in team productivity and a dramatic reduction in time spent on regression testing from start to finish.

While there are many advantages to automation, it is essential to emphasize that it may be possible for your IT team to automate all tests, but it鈥檚 not advisable. Automation is ideal for repetitive and predictable tests. Complex tests, such as exploratory tests, will always require human analysis and oversight.
