Test automation can help you run checks on your system more efficiently, especially when the tasks are repetitive. But automation isn’t one-size-fits-all strategy, different types of tests need different types of test automation tools.
In this 404 Talk, Rahul Parwal demonstrates three tools he uses regularly for automation: NUnit for unit testing, RestSharp for API testing, and Selenium WebDriver for UI automation. Each one supports a different layer of testing, and Rahul walks through simple examples of how they work, where they shine, and what to keep in mind when using them.

Here are the three test automation tools Rahul uses for different types of testing:
- NUnit: a unit testing framework for .NET. It’s great for checking logic at the code level, with simple syntax and quick feedback.
- RestSharp: an API testing tool. It helps you send requests, receive responses, and verify API behaviour quickly and reliably, ideal for backend checks.
- Selenium WebDriver: a browser automation tool that simulates user actions. It’s widely used for UI testing across different browsers but can be flaky, so timing and stability are important.
