What are the technologies, methods we can use to create automated tests for splunk apps

[madawa]

As a software team, we need to be able to write automated tests for the splunk app we are developing. Therefore are there ways to write automated tests? Or is it that we only can test the application manually?

Splunk does not have a built-in or add-on test tool. You'll need a third-party test tool. Which one to select depends on what your app does and what kind of testing you require.

Thanks @richgalloway, What do you mean by third-party test tools? Are you referring to things like Selenium to test the UI, or Speckflow to do REST API testing?

[richgalloway]

Yes, those are the kinds of tools I had in mind. Which one depends on the specifics of your app.
