Answer / sharmi

Data Driven Framework is nothing but seperating the data
from the code.so that we can reuse the code for multiple

Kerword driven Framework is a collection of keywords and
functions and the association between them.Here each
keyword is associated with one funtion(for example
Login,Logout and it can can be low-level functions like
Set,Click,etc).
