Topic:
The internet of Things (IoT) is becoming popular day by day. It is connecting everyday devices, machines, vehicles with the Internet. IoT is using sensors, connectivity, cloud, software applications, and mobile applications. To understand IoT testing you need to know the product technical architecture before you start the test strategy. There are many obstacles to test it. Test Automation can help resolve some of these issues while IoT test automation is challenging the traditional test life cycle models and test automation tools.
You can design your test automation to develop individual Methods to trigger each possible event using the API. Libraries providing system functions to simulate various network conditions, interact with web application integrated into the solution. I will discuss the benefits and challenges with IoT Test Automation and how to resolve/minimize these challenges.
Takeaways:
* IoT is a connection of identifiable embedded devices with the existing Internet infrastructure.
* The complexity of the software and system may find a bug in the IoT technology
* Complex Testing ensures that the users get an improved user experience across all the connected devices.
* IoT test Automation can help reduce the complex testing cycle

Hi Malik, It's a good presentation.
One thing which is not clear that, how can we simulate the Hardware with E2E testing. Can you suggest any simulation that helps E2E/load testing. Reason is it's very difficult to execute the regression/load on real physical devises.
