Introduction:

Functional testing is a type of black-box testing that validates the correctness of a software system's functionality against its requirements. It is performed by executing test cases that provide input to the system and verify the output. The main goal of functional testing is to ensure that the system meets its intended purpose.

Presently, the landscape of functional test automation is riddled with inefficiencies and time-consuming processes. Quality Assurance professionals often find themselves grappling with manual testing or resorting to unwieldy software solutions characterised by obscure and convoluted pricing structures. Manual testing, though still prevalent, presents a fertile ground for errors and can significantly strain resources, particularly in smaller teams.
