    A singing automaton performs each night in Atlantic City. Like every work of art, the toy has a fascinating story behind her creation. An old barfly recounts the tale to a young server, teaching him the power of technology in helping man cope with life's trials of love, loss and regret. This is one of my earlier works, which was published in the Spring 2015 issue of Mad Scientist Journal.

    Automation is the much talked about word in today's world. The computerization which gained momentum in the last decade of the last century is at its peak now with almost the entire world is moving towards the goal of hundred percent computerization. At this juncture, automation is gaining more popularity and wide acceptance. Literally, automation has been replaced many manual jobs in different sectors. Software testing is an area which has been automated even before this trend came to exist. There are many advantages for automating software testings and some of them are as follows; Manual Testing requires a lot of manpower and it leaves a good amount of financial burden on the company. When you automate the testing processes, you can reduce the manpower considerably and thus can bring down the cost for testing. AS many software testing tools are available free, the cost can be reduced to a greater extent. Manual testing is a tedious job which consumes a lot of time. In many cases, a test case may need to be tested repeatedly and in some other cases, each test should be executed on different platforms and on different browsers. When you are doing it manually, it will take more time and the entire project may get delayed. Here, the test automation tools will help to reduce the turnaround time as parallel multiple testings are possible in automation testing. Moreover, there will not be any need to write the test scripts again and again. In automated <a href="https://anyaut.com/">software testing</a>, the chances for manual errors are very less or nil. Hence, the result will be accurate. Today, the software sector is experiencing hectic competition and is such a competitive market price of the product and the quality plays important roles in deciding the fate of the business. Automated software testings make both these criteria favourable and thus it gained wide acceptance.
