Why Automated Testing Fails

12 reasons why test automation fails to provide a good ROI

  • Unrealistic automation goals
  • Inadequate test planning
  • Learning curve too steep
  • Poor Choices in what to automate
  • Test tool not compatible with app
  • Lack of training
  • Poor test automation architecture
  • Lack of control on data state
  • Poorly designed test cases
  • Cost of maintenance too high
  • Lack of Standards
  • Tool usage is in consistent with QA process

Make sure your tools are not part of the problem.  If your tool does not  automatically generate test cases, reinforce good techniques and leverage existing code, you will not get the expected return.
