Title: Impediments for software test automation: A systematic literature review.
Authors: Wiklund, Kristian1,2, Eldh, Sigrid1,2, Sundmark, Daniel2 daniel.sundmark@mdh.se, Lundqvist, Kristina2

Subjects: Computer software testing, Execution traces (Computer program testing), Automation, Automatic identification, Computer software development
Abstract: Automated software testing is a critical enabler for modern software development, where rapid feedback on the product quality is expected. To make the testing work well, it is of high importance that impediments related to test automation are prevented and removed quickly. An enabling factor for all types of improvement is to understand the nature of what is to be improved. We have performed a systematic literature review of reported impediments related to software test automation to contribute to this understanding. In this paper, we present the results from the systematic literature review: The list of identified publications, a categorization of identified impediments, and a qualitative discussion of the impediments proposing a socio-technical system model of the use and implementation of test automation.
