Software test automation shortens the test execution by up to 60%, even if such testing costs
more to prepare than manual tests. Testing can be automated gradually to spread out costs.
Moreover, several studies show that automated tests decrease the number of errors per line of
code delivered to the client by 10–30% in comparison to manual tests.
The result of software test automation:
- Less time needed for testing
- Improved productivity of testers
- Improved regression testing coverage
- Improved test quality
- Easier upkeep and execution of all tests
- Improved test repeatability or reusability
- Improved application quality
- An organised and detailed record of tests performed
- Simplified debugging
