RPA Testing with Studio
RPA, like any software, requires a full development cycle, including thorough testing. Effective RPA testing reduces maintenance costs and enhances automation value. This course places RPA testing within the broader automation process, covering essential UiPath Studio testing features. It focuses on unit testing for RPA workflows and incorporates best practices from UiPath's development teams.
This course was originally built using UiPath Studio version 2022.10, with updates reflecting changes in version 2023.10. We recommend using UiPath Studio 2023.10 to fully benefit from the latest features and improvements.
This is a two-hour course, and it is targeted at Automation Developers.
