To test a GUI, you need a reliable method of finding components of interest, clicking buttons, selecting cells in a table, dragging things about. In fact you need a ‘Bot’ that will activate all The User Interfaces, Buttons, Windows, etc. like human user does. The GUI test need a full description of the expected behavior of the User Interface controls, and its process is similar to any developing process. Gui test also had to make sure that the GUI stands on the customer requirements as well.
Test automation framework is a set of assumptions, concepts and tools that provide support for automated software testing. The main advantage of such a framework is its low cost for maintenance. If there is a change in any test case, only then, the test case file needs to be updated while the Driver Script and Startup script remains the same. There's no need to update the scripts in case of any changes to the application. Choosing right framework/scripting technique helps in maintaining the costs.
