Innovation in software testing – Is automation the solution?
The aim of our study is to investigate the theoretical and practical effectiveness of automated software testing. We assess the criteria for choosing automated testing software and highlight the cases in which automated testing is more effective than manual testing. First, we compare the two testing methodologies on a theoretical level, then we present a real business case study to illustrate the selection of a testing software and perform a practical comparative analysis. A comparison of five automated test systems reveals that, in addition to basic technological and economic requirements, flexibility and reliability are also key considerations in the selection process. The study also shows that automation can only be effective in the case of repetition. However, for a software developer with at least ten customers, it is worthwhile to move towards automated testing.
