2. WHAT IS TEST AUTOMATION?
It is a practical process to automated testing and performance
measurement for your websites.
3. WHY AUTOMATED TESTING?
1.An automated software testing tool is able to playback pre-recorded and
predefined actions, compare the results to the expected behavior and report
the success or failure of these manual tests to a test engineer. Once automated
tests are created they can easily be repeated and they can be extended to
perform tasks impossible with manual testing. But, Certain aspects of testing an
application would rely more on the human tester than on test automation.
2.Testing is an investment in quality. Efficient test project management produces
a positive return, fits within the overall projects schedule, has quantifiable
findings, and is seen as a definite contributor to any project.
4. SUITABLE TO AUTOMATE
Acceptance, Compatibility, Load,Volume or Capacity, Performance and
Reliability, Structural testing, Regression, Exception or Negative testing.
5. NOT SUITABLE TO AUTOMATE
Installation and setup, Configuration and Compatibility,
Documentation and help, Error handling and Recovery, Localization,
Usability, and any other that relies heavily on human judgment.

7. HOW MUCH DOES IT COST?
The total cost needs to consider the costs of numerous resources
undertaking a testing project. These resources generally include:
Person hours to test—time to set up and perform automation
Testing environment—testing infrastructure or environment
Testing software—testing technology/tools
