Why we go for automated tesing?

Answer Posted / suja

Automation testing is used when

1. Application needs a set of tests to be executed very
regularly due to a software change or defect fix.

2. Application undergoes constant changes and needs
regression tests to be reexecuted

3. Test expected results are clearly identified and
documented and is not expected to change every now and then

4. Performance and load tests needs to be done with large
volumes of data and user hits which are impossible to be
addressed by the number of available testers

4. Data driven testing is needed regularly . for eg: if the
same test requires to be executed 10 times with different
input data sets, it is better to automate
