Objective
We will show you how to automate the testing of your applications (valid for web, API and mobile
applications). The test objects available in the GeneXus IDE allow you to create tests at different
application levels. You can quickly create tests at the logic, services and interface level (the latter only
for web applications).
Automated testing allows you to deliver the systems you develop to your customers with maximum
speed and quality, enabling you to achieve continuous integration/continuous delivery, which is the
methodological foundation for competence in the industry.

Approach
The application to be automated is a web application implemented for training purposes. However,
you will be able to apply most of the knowledge to mobile and service-oriented applications.
