Keyword & Data Driven Testing

Data Driven Testing is a type of software testing wherein testing data is maintained in table or spreadsheet form. Data driven testing enables testers to provide a singular test script that may perform tests for all test data from a table and expects the test results to be returned in the very same table. Table-driven testing is another name for parameterized testing.

Keyword-driven testing is a functional testing, also called table-driven testing or action-wordbased testing. In this testing, a table format is used, most likely a spreadsheet, to define keywords for a function to be executed.
