Conducting automated testing

Another option when it comes to conducting testing for the proposed system is automated testing. We have already discussed the differences between manual testing and automated testing. Automated testing is done mostly when we have fewer resources and we need to perform repetitive testing. Similar to manual testing, the automated testing process also has a life cycle, as shown in the following diagram:

Let's discuss these stages one by one.

Scoping automated testing

In this stage, we set up the scope of automated testing. While setting up the scope, a feasibility check for automated testing is performed to make sure it is possible to perform automated testing for the target system. In most...
