Answer / mahesh sv

1. If you have to run a set of tests repeatedly, automation
is a huge win for you

2. It gives you the ability to run automation against code
that frequently changes

to catch regressions in a timely manner

3. It gives you the ability to run automation in mainstream
scenarios to catch regressions in a timely manner (see what
is a Nightly)

4. Aids in testing a large test matrix (different languages
on different OS platforms).

5. Automated tests can be run at the same time on different
machines, whereas the manual tests would have to be run
sequentially

6. Repeatability, Programmability, Reliability are the imp
attributes

7. for test automation, impact and criticality are the main
attributes
