Difference between Automation testing and manual testing.

Answer Posted / mamta

Automation testing :-

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

manual testing:-

1.If the test case only runs twice a coding milestone, it
most likely should be a manual test. Less cost than
automating it.
2.It allows the tester to perform more ad-hoc (random
testing). In my experiences, more bugs are found via ad-
hoc than via automation. And, the more time a tester
spends playing with the feature, the greater the odds of
finding real user bugs.
