I was trying my hands on with Gauge framework and Taiko automation tool, and found that it was so easy to write and maintain tests using it.
Gauge helps you write the test specification in BDD manner and is quite easy to learn.
Taiko is just a charm, it requires less programming knowledge and is quick and easy to learn.
The most interesting part of Taiko was its smart locators, you dont have to dig into the DOM of the page to search for loactors, its locates the elements smartly.
Using Taiko alone, you can quickly write tests and run the smoke test round easily.
The only drawback I found in taiko was it just supports Chrome.
Overall, Gauge and Taiko are nice opensource automation tools, you should try your hands on!!
You can find the example code I created on github in the following link:
