When is Automated Testing a Good Idea?



Regression Testing: For re-testing pre-existing application functions that are being carried forward to new versions (usually the majority, unless app is brand new)

Smoke Testing: For getting a quick high-level assessment on the quality of a build and making go / no-go decision on deeper testing

Static & Repetitive Tests: For automating testing tasks that are repetitive and relatively unchanging from one test cycle to the next

• Data Driven Testing: For testing application functions where the same functions needs to be validated with lots of different inputs & large data sets (i.e. login, search)

• Load & Performance Testing: No viable manual alternative exists
