what is the difference between automated testing n manual testing? which one is better?..

Answer / chithra

Test automation is something which is under taken as a test
approach when a project requires a continuous or repetitive
testing approach, which obviously depends on the project
involved. But manual testing can be handled in places where
we cannot automate or difficult to automate. So, the thing
is both manual and automation cannot be compared as better
than the other. It depends on the objective or project that
we are going to take up manual or automation.

Answer / purni

Like chithra said, we cannot compare them. Every method has
its advantages and disadvantages. But manual testing is the
mandatory, We can proceed to automation only after the
manual testing. Automation testing is mainly used for
repetative testing and for the large applications. Manual
testing is mandatory and effective way of testing but it
takes time and human resource.

Answer / rameshdulam

we can say automation is better if can have some hands in C
language . because manual is compulsory in any kind of
appication after finishing smoke test in manual or testing
the application manually we will be starting preparation of
automation scripts. so knowing automation tools will pay us
more then having only manual.
