Short Answer is No. Next thing you need to understand is difference between Manual Testing and Automation Testing. Manual testing means testing a product/app/website or anything that needs to be test...

Automation testing is not a replacement for manual testing its just a continuation for manual testing. Because initially every application will be tested manually once the application has come to a stable state then only it is suggested to do automation testing.

I use automated testing tools for regression testing. It saves me time of repeating the tests, feeding data/retrieving data manually into/from the application under test. Also, I can ensure that no functionality is missed during testing.

Some of the answers are close but missed the entire point of planning.. You should handle test automation as a project. Each project should consist of areas that have been targeted for test automation and then need to be planned out as and other type of project: This of course assumes that you already have in place what makes a test a candidate for test automation and approved by the required resources…as well as defined and have in place your framework and all automation artifact needed to make this this a successful development project. But as a minimum the plan should include:
1. Introduction
What is the automation objectives2. Scope
What we are automating3. Test Strategy
The strategy is to automate the scope4. Test Schedule
What is the timeframe for completion? What is the execution schedule?5. Functions to Be Tested
List what we are testing/verifying and how…the flow can go here as well6. Resources and Responsibilities
Who do we need to do this and what parts will they be automating, setting up, etc.
8. Deliverables
What will we be turning over once completed? Automated scripts for one.9. Dependencies
What do we need to be in place, setup, etc to do this?10. Risks
What are the risk involved?donlevi

Why tester can only test, developer also a can do test . why there is a separate team for devolpment and testing?

Good question surendar.Developers responsibility is to develop the application and to ensure it is working properly or not.But in case of tester, he has to ensure that the application is not working properly. In that way tester has to think to test the application.

- Activity level of user group
- Scripting language like python has a ton of modules available

Automated Testing
When should you use an automated testing?
Read Best Answer
Editorial / Best Answer
kurtz182- Member Since Nov-2009 | Dec 20th, 2009
Automated testing is best performed:
1) When a product has enough value to a company to warrant it
2) When a product has a long enough life cycle to warrant it
3) When it directly helps your project's speed, coverage, risk mitigation and development nimbleness
4) When it is relatively simple to implement
5) When requirements are stable and not apt to change
6) On components that are mission-critical
7) On components that have failed and are apt to fail again
8) On components that are self-contained
9) On components that are scriptable
10) On components that require little maintenancemail2vass
