Sahi Pro Flowcharts is for anybody in a tester role who wants to automate repetitive checks for faster releases. You could be a Manual Tester, Exploratory Tester, Automation Engineer, Business Analyst, Delivery Manager, or anyone playing a testing role.
Flowcharts is almost 99% no code. However, there may be applications and circumstances where we may realize the limitation of our framework or UI. For those cases, Flowcharts allows invocation of custom code. We will be monitoring via our support teams for any such use cases and proactively try to work towards no-code solutions for them.
Sahi started as an open source tool in 2005. The main aim of Sahi was to enable non-programmer testers to easily accomplish web UI automation. We accomplished that by building a good recorder, smart object identification and using simple Javascript for scripting.
As Sahi became Sahi Pro, and the scale of automation increased, we introduced Business Driven Test Automation framework, which let users express their test cases via an Excel or Spreadsheet like user interface. The actual automation implementation was still in Javascript, but could be accomplished almost 75% with just the wizards provided in Sahi Pro. This reduced the code/programming need of the automation project significantly.
Having seen how customers benefitted from Sahi Pro BDTA, we tried to see if we could eliminate code entirely from UI automation. We analysed the programming patterns used in test automation and came up with a framework that gave the same control to the end user, but without the code.
Sahi Pro Flowcharts is a fruit of that labour. Sahi Pro Flowcharts dramatically brings down the complexity of test automation and hence speeds up your delivery process.
