Answer Posted / kshipra singh

Criteria for automating

There are two sets of questions to determine whether
automation is right for your test case:


Is this test scenario automatable?
a. Yes, and it will cost a little
b. Yes, but it will cost a lot
c. No, it is no possible to automate


How important is this test scenario?
a. I must absolutely test this scenario whenever possible
b. I need to test this scenario regularly
c. I only need to test this scenario once in a while

If you answered "a" to both questions ? definitely automate
that test

If you answered "a" or "b" to both questions ? you should
automate that test

If you answered "b" to both questions ? you need to
consider if it is really worth the investment to automate
