Proceed to tests automation
Automated computer operations began about 45 years ago when IBM introduced the OS/360 operating system. Like other early operating systems, OS/360 was a supervisory program that managed system resources and provided an automatic transition from one job to another. This was called batch processing. OS/360 could run batch jobs but had only limited control over their sequence and no capability to schedule future jobs. It still required a high level of operator involvement.
Today, we have perfected this process so much that every industry is able to benefit from automation, so it’s fair to say that this is the era of worry-free automation. There are applications and software developed solely to provide better experiences to the users so the required tasks can be done efficiently and without errors. In order to minimize effort and speed up processes on a daily basis, automation is the easiest trick in the book.
