Diff. between keyword driven Data driven testing?

Answer Posted / raman verma

Data-driven testing is a methodology used in Test automation
where test scripts are executed and verified based on the
data values stored in one or more central data sources or
databases. These databases can range from datapools, ODBC
sources, csv files, Excel files, DAO objects, ADO objects, etc.

Keyword-driven testing or Table-driven testing is a Software
testing methodology as part of the Test automation
discipline that separates the programming work from the
actual Test script so that the test scripts can be developed
without knowledge of programming. As a result the test
scripts can be maintained with only minor updates, even when
the application or testing requires significant changes.
