G'day All,

I recently came across a white paper from www.sqa-test.com about this Automated test methodology known as 'Key-Word Driven'.
I'm curious to know if any one else out there has heard of, and used this method successfully.

I understand the concepts of this approach and are currently applying it to my testing using AQTest.

If this methodology is widely used, I'd be keen to hear from any one about any gains or pit falls they may have experienced. Cheers.

TestKiwi,
This topic has been discussed here many times before. Simply do a search on the related topics "Action Words" or "Data Driven", etc, it will bring up numerous previous discussions.
For example, take a look at http://www.qaforums.com/Forum34/HTML/000088.html or http://www.qaforums.com/Forum34/HTML/000156.html
etc.

Let me know if after reviewing these, you still have questions.
