APPROPRIATE TIMING
ď ą Testing should be prompt and meet the demands of an Agile approach
IMPLEMENT REGRESSION TESTING
Speeds up & improves test efficiency by automating repetitive tests QA team does not have to change the test scripts often to validate regression
OFFER COMPLETE VISIBILITY
ď ą Enhanced visibility on how automation makes the testing cycle better leads to better collaborations ď ą Keeps the team bound to processes and the automated framework
AUTOM ATE SELECTIVE COMPONENTS O N LY
Determine tests that are relevant to the solution Certain tests can be excluded from automation Tests that slowdown the test cycle Tests that are better performed manually

EXPLORE IDEAS & TOOLS
Ideation will lead to better automation scope with product quality Decide the test plan & refine requirements baseline with brainstorming Projections can be better charted by leveraging state-of-the-art tools
