Why to Automate

It is quickly becoming necessary for micro, small, and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) to automate their testing processes. It becomes all the more vital while focusing on the development of their online services and e-commerce operations. Failing this, SMEs would face a situation where they may be unable to deal with the expenses incurred due to performance issues and service delays.

• • Test automation increases overall software efficiency and ensures robust software quality. 

  • Test Automation can be implemented time and again, with minimal effort and maximum accuracy.

  • Faster Feedback - Unit testing can be automated to ensure developers get faster feedback and bugs are addressed quicker

  • Test Automation allows the testing to be carried out repeatedly, delivering faster results each time with lesser effort and time.

  • Test automated saves companies many a penny. This is predominantly due to the sharp drop in the amount of time required to run tests. It contributes to a higher quality of work, thereby decreasing the necessity for fixing glitches after release and reduces project costs.

  • Automation allows more tests in short time which means we have Higher Overall Test Coverage. An increased test coverage leads to testing more features and higher quality applications.

  • Automation tests can be reused until the life of the test cases. Hence One time effort can save effort of teams.

  • Test Automation greatly helps reduce the time-to-market of an application by allowing constant execution of test cases. Once automated, the test library execution is faster and runs longer than manual testing.
