Abstract	:	The growing demand for delivering quality software faster �Quality at Speed� requires faster and successful execution of software testing to ensure its standard. Utilizing appropriate testing method(s) and right test automation tools/framework are two defining factors for a successful and effective software testing project. Using one testing method will not be sufficient to test a software and ensure its standard, a combination of some appropriate testing techniques is often required. Likewise, there is no one tool that can satisfy all automated testing needs which makes finding the right tool combination difficult. Knowing the various testing methods and tools/frameworks is the first step towards achieving a successful and efficient software testing. This article presents a comprehensive study of test automation tools and frameworks. Firstly, automated testing and their categories were explained, followed by an explanation of the various test automation frameworks. Finally, brief explanation and comparison of some of the most commonly used automation tools was presented.
