Answer / shoba
I support automation testing because it helps us to save
time in testing the large application with large number of
fields.By manually testing the large application includes
more effort and more number of resources.

Answer / padmas
I do not support automated testing,
when,
-sufficient skills& resources are not available to maintain
the automated testing environment.
-automated testing is not providing any solution to the
problems faced during manual testing.Problems related to
time,resources,human intervention while testing the
applications are not getting resolved by automating the
testing process.
I do support
when
-there is time crunch during critical deliverable
-error guessing is used to find out more defects through
manual testing but unable to find, such as memory leaks etc.
- manual testing becomes routine.
- there are insufficient human resources , to progress the
testing process.
-24/7 testing service is required.There are few applications
that need to run continuously for a 24hrs periods of time /
few days / without shutting down the pc's.
-when there are applications to be tested to measure the
performance issues like down time,up time, fail
over/recovery testings, Meantime to failure and meantime
between failures etc.in which human resources cannot be
indulged for longer period of time.
-There is need to train human resources in manual testing,
in order to make them to learn new techniques and improve
the efficiency and effectiveness of testing process.
-testing activities are directly linked to the
organizational growth and in business activities.

Answer / karim
i agree with one thing that manual testing can never be
replaced by automation testing, there is always a need for
manual testing team for any project since it helps in
detecting bugs that were never thought of earlier which can
always happen during build change of projects. Automation
helps in a way that it test only scenarios which have been
scripted
