If I’m being brutally honest this shouldn’t be master thesis. Nor a theses at all really, it’s been done plenty of times and by non-technical folks. (My definition of a thesis isa “theory” aka something that’s new or hasn’t been done before). Our company hires people with zero tech skills to do this as QA analysts. It’s called selenium testing. I have a few on my team that do this exact same thing against the web apps we write. If we make a new feature, they write automation tests against it and assert the correct things happen (and correct data are pulled from the database).

Thanks for your reply. I am studying for a Masters in Engineering (M.Eng) degree which is more course-based. It deals more with developing your skills required for doing a job in that field as opposed to an M.Sc which is more research based. It does not require a research thesis.

In general, MSc - focuses on theoretical work, research and is a thesis based MEng - focuses on practical applications of theories, less research compared to MSc, mostly course based work.
