Aspects of the disclosure include methods and systems for performing automated software testing. The method includes obtaining a test script for software, executing the test script, and determining that the test script includes an action that cannot be completed. The method also includes identifying elements of a user interface of the software, inputting, into a natural language processing system, a query including the action and the elements, and receiving, in response to the query, an identified element. The method further includes continuing the executing of the software by performing the action on the identified element and determining that an updated user interface includes an element associated with the action of the test script. The method also includes updating the test script by adding a new action to the test script based on a determination that the updated user interface includes the element associated with the action.
