Automation Framework

Definitions

1. A framework that provides structure, conventions, and reusable components for writing and running automated tasks such as tests, deployments, browser actions, or workflow orchestration. Good automation frameworks reduce duplication and make large automation suites easier to maintain.

   In plain English: A framework that helps teams build and run automated tasks consistently.

   Example: "The QA team adopted an automation framework that standardized fixtures, retries, screenshots, and environment setup across hundreds of browser tests."
