Abstract
Software products are tested using various techniques. These techniques are mostly based on technical and technological diligence and verification which are conducted by an experienced examiner and the absence of which may cause quality assurance issues. Such hindrances may be tackled by using software testing processes. Currently, two most important basic processes exist in software testing industry: manual and automated testing process. The manual process is not recommended when iterative tasks are performed. Additionally, automated testing has many advantages it is time and cost effective with lesser human interference. Selection of an appropriate testing tool is still in infancy way which may lead to problems with any software company. In this research, we propose a quality framework of selection of an appropriate self-driven software quality optimization tools for regression testing by focusing on quality of the final product.
