Answer / nagendra

framework means set of assumptions the we take to test the
application.

Answer / @shok

Test automation frame work is a set of assumptions,
concepts and practices that provide/constitute a work
platform or support to automated testing.

Framework is necessary to identify how we are going to
automate the test. A framework in place gives better
understanding and visibility to how much progress we have
made in terms of the project and better management and
minimize the amount of work and time required for the
maintenance of the automation project in case of updates or
modification required at any later stages of the life cycle.

We follow the Hybrid framework where we use the Test Script
modularity, Test Library architecture and Data Driven
framework,Table Driven/Keyword Driven framework (Tool:
Rational Robot)

Test Script Modularity FW: is nothing but creating small
independent scripts that represents modules, Scenarios or
functions of the AUT. are inturn used in a heirarchical
fashion to form larger tests.

Test library architecture: is using of library files
(dll's, API's,VBS files which your tool supports) in your
automation test.

Keyword Driven or Table driven: is creating tables based
on the AUT's Window, Objects, Action performed on that
object and the data supplied to it. Once the table is
created for the test, write a program or scripts that
represent each step in the tale. Nothig but descriptive
programming.

Data Driven framework is notng but using of Data Pools
(Rational robot), Data Driven test in Winrunner and QTP.

Hybrid FW: is nothing but a combination of all of or any of
the above mentioned framework.

With Rational Robot we were using hybrid framework

Other than using import sheet statement for importing the data from excel sheet, is there any other method that can be used?
