Roadmap
Test automation is still in its infancy, and there are countless ways to improve productivity in the software development process.
To expand Autifys capabilities and product lineup, our long-term roadmap is divided into these three phases.
To expand Autifys capabilities and product lineup, our long-term roadmap is divided into these three phases.
INCREASE AUTOMATION COVERAGE
First, we will provide a product that can automate a greater proportion of test cases that are currently being tested manually.
INCREASE OVERALL TEST COVERAGE
Currently, test coverage varies from person to person. We will provide a product that increases the test coverage along with the automation percentage.
ELIMINATE TEST PHASE
The test phase is for verifying that all operations work as intended after development. If we can automate tests at the initial stage of development, development can be driven by tests. Once all tests pass, the software can be released without a separate test phase.
