RPA - Robotic Process Automation, Automating Business Processes like Data Entry, Queries, Calculations, and Transactions in various organizations like, Banks, Insurance, Healthcare, ERP etc... using Software Tools like Blueprism, Automation AnyWhere, UiPath etc.
Test Automation or Automated Testing, Automating Software Testing Processes like Functional Testing, Performance Testing, Web Services Testing Etc...using Software Test Tools like Selenium, UFT/QTP, LoadRunner, SoapUI Etc..
1) Conducting Robotic Process Automation...
Robotic Process Automation, Automating Business Processes like,
> Data Entry,
> Queries,
> Calculations
and Transactions Etc...
Using Software Robots, We develop Software Robots using Robotic Process Automation Tools like Blue Prism, Automation AnyWhere, Uipath etc...
No programming knowledge is required for RPA, RPA is wizard driven....
Robotic Process Automation is well suited for processes that are clearly defined, repeatable and rules based.
RPA will automate low value clerical activities performed by humans. Most importantly RPA is only for clerical process automation and not for all human activities.
RPA is software-based, it can be used to perform various tasks. These include maintenance of records, queries, calculations, and transactions. Additionally, any application commonly used by your company can be operated by RPA.
For example, Citrix, .NET, HTML, and Java are all technologies commonly supported by RPA.
Compatible Systems include Mainframe Terminals, SAP, Oracle, Blackline, and many more.
Conducting Software Testing using any Test Tool is called Test Automation or Automated Testing, Test Tool also a Software ex: Selenium, UFT/QTP, RFT etc...
Programming / Coding knowledge is required for Test Automation...
Test Automation or Automated Testing is applied only to the Product/Software Product and its features. It Checks weather the product is working or not as per its Requirements.
Example: Internet Banking Application is there, we conduct Functional, Performance, Web Services Etc...Test Types on that Application,
Business subject matter experts or SMEs train their RPA, Cognitive, and Chatbot software robots (bots) on core business systems operation in a way that can be audited, versioned, modified, and enhanced over time.
The immediate benefits of RPA include:
- More standardized process
- Better scalability
- Faster and 24x7 processing
- Reduced errors
- Reduced cost
Additional benefits include
- Superior governance
- Improved security
- Improved business continuity
Automation also delivers new capabilities that include
- Centralized management
- Better audit trail
- Process versioning and backup
All of these help improve customer experience while improving the efficiency of the process.
