Summary

Hyperautomation is a market state where organizations must rapidly identify and automate all possible business processes, with automation efforts expanding to include software design, modeling, monitoring, analytics, robotic process automation (RPA), business process automation (BPA), and more. Low-code testing solutions are emerging in the marketplace, offering promise by democratizing these technologies and allowing practitioners to create and test application software without coding. These solutions represent a leap beyond record and playback tools and offer benefits such as scalability, reduced flakiness, and increased ease of use. However, low-code test solutions also come with limitations, including challenges in ensuring maintenance and sustainability of tests as the suite grows, and not accounting for all testing scenarios. Despite these limitations, low-code test solutions are poised to become more prevalent as the industry continues to progress with machine learning (ML) and artificial intelligence (AI).
