Preface

Testing is essential for any activity to succeed; this applies to software as well. It not only covers verification but also the validation of the software. Commonly used testing practices include unit and functional testing that validates the needed functionality. However, manual efforts by testers or stakeholders are required to verify that the software being tested works as desired, as part of the software acceptance process.

As software has grown both in size and amount over the years, the acceptance testing process has become automated, leaving behind vast information in the form of audit trails of tests that need to be made available to the user at a glance and without which the purpose of acceptance test automation is defeated.
