RPA Bots Too Brittle? Try Model-Based Low-Code
By Jason Bloomberg, Intellyx
Can a “low-code” approach to RPA relieve all the headaches associated with brittle scripted bots?
Excerpt:
The appeal is clear: automate an RPA ‘bot’ in order to mimic the user, simplifying the otherwise onerous task of hand-coding complex automations.
However, automation is not so simple. Most RPA solutions on the market suffer from a common weakness: brittleness. Any change to the application interface, business processes, or data formats breaks the bots, requiring expensive maintenance.
One approach to resolving this brittleness issue is to borrow an approach that spans the worlds of automated testing and low-code development: represent the behavior of bots as models that humans can easily create and maintain to automatically generate working automations without scripting.
