What is Keyword-Driven Testing?
Keyword-driven testing describes tests as sequences of high-level keywords—Login, Search, AddToCart—each backed by underlying automation code. This separation lets less-technical team members compose and read tests in business terms while engineers maintain the implementations behind each keyword. It promotes reuse and keeps tests readable as suites grow. The concept aligns with how recorded flows abstract raw interactions into meaningful, named steps, giving you maintainable tests that describe intent rather than low-level clicks.
