FunTest is a Test Automation Platform that allows anyone to create automated test sequences for hardware testing. By using a spreadsheet editor anyone without prior automation experience can accelerate their testing through automation.
Hi Product Hunt! After years in the hardware testing engineering space, my team and I built FunTEST - a platform designed to simplify the development of test automation for hardware testing, especially electronics.
Here are the main two reasons why we designed this:
1. Short learning curve for anyone regardless of their experience:
FunTest offers a remarkably user-friendly approach to test automation, making it accessible even for individuals with no coding experience. Unlike LabVIEW and Python, which require a certain level of programming expertise, FunTest allows users to set up automated test sequences using a simple spreadsheet format. This intuitive design eliminates the steep learning curve often associated with LabVIEW's graphical programming and Python's text-based coding. As a result, teams can quickly transition from manual to automated testing without the need for specialized software engineering skills, thereby accelerating the overall testing process and reducing time-to-market
2. Easy maintenance as your testing needs grow:
When it comes to code maintainability, FunTest stands out for its straightforward spreadsheet-based approach to test sequence creation. This format makes it incredibly easy to manage, update, and review test cases, all without the need for specialized coding skills. In contrast, LabVIEW's block diagram environment, while visually intuitive, can become complex and challenging to maintain as test requirements evolve. Python, although offering high maintainability through text-based code, requires a strong adherence to coding best practices and may necessitate frequent updates to libraries and dependencies. With FunTest, the focus shifts from code maintenance to effective testing, allowing teams to concentrate on product quality rather than the intricacies of test script upkeep.
If you're someone who needs to deploy automation without significantly increasing your resources or you're a test engineer who just wishes test automation would be easier. This is for you!
