Summary

In this chapter, we covered several models for UI automation test code writing, which can help create better-designed frameworks. We also reviewed some ways of automating the repetitive parts of the test code to help you achieve more with less effort.

We have visited different models that could help you differently: with remote topologies, with files with objects, and even with screenshots that can help you with visual automation.

Do you really need all of these testing patterns to write good and stable automation? Well, do you need wardrobes and drawers to be able to find things in your house? The answer is the same.

In the next chapter, we will go back to a lower part of the test pyramid and find out about models that can help us create better testing in CI/CD.
