Cookie based Authentication

With automation, most of the cases start with logging into the the application under test. But does this have to be repeated for every use case?

DevAssure provides the support to authenticate users based on cookie storage. While recording, the state can be stored in a file, and the same file can be loaded every time when there is a use case to be automated with an auth flow.

This enhances execution time of the test automation and also reduces test automation flakiness.
