2Keyword-Driven TestingKeyword driven testing is software that uses data files to have the keywords that are relatedto the application that is being tested. It is appropriate for both automated and manual testing.It is also called Table driven testing or action word based testing. Keyword driven testing haslow and high-level keywords including the keyword arguments that is composed of asequence of actions used to define the work of a case being tested by the user by justdragging and dropping the keyword that is related to the operation one wishes to perform(Bajpai, 2012). The keyword-driven test entails some stages to be fully developed. First, youhave to analyze and assess the requirements of the application come up with unique softwareto be adopted. The next thing that one has to do is to define the model and have the keyboardand data definition then has the test basis. Then we have the test design for analyzing the testbasis and the manual execution using the keyword specified. The next step is theimplementation stage where you come up with automated scripts and to complete the processis having the automated test (Pajunen et al., 2011).One good thing about Keyword-driven tests is that they are easy to create (Smart Bare n.d).By merely organizing the keywords into excel to represent the test that is to be tested toefficiently manage and control the start-up. The easiest way to create the keyword-driven testhere is by recording where also the testers can record their actions being performed and thekeyword-driven test is produced for them. In regard to automated tests, it is essential to haveit especially at the beginning of an application being designed so as to check any bugs andfixing them when detected so as the development process can be cheaper and easier from thestart as compared to having them come up when the application development is almostcompleting (Software Testing Genius n.d). In keyword driven testing one can create afunctional test at the beginning of development to test the application all along thedevelopment stages without having to come up with a detailed scripting language.
