Abstract
Testing Automation has been growing in software engineering. Many organizations are investing in automated testing in order to prevent defects and increase testing effectiveness during software development. In agile methodologies, this task is considered an important activity, considered the key of the agile testing. This paper presents three testing automation strategies applied to three different software projects adopting Scrum agile methodology.
