Test Automation involves converting manual test activities into automated processes. It enhances efficiency by allowing tests to run without human intervention. Automation is particularly useful for repetitive tasks, regression tests and large-scale testing scenarios.
Benefits:
- Increased test coverage
- Faster execution of tests
- Consistent results across test runs
- Reduced manual effort and human error
- Enhanced resource allocation to complex tasks
Organisations often adopt automation to improve software quality while reducing time-to-market.
