ROI – Benefit/Cost Costs (pay now) Additional Resources Software licenses Additional Hardware Benefits (later on…maybe) Frees up resources Reduce the cost of testing Speed and Accuracy of tests Accumulation, expand your test coverage Find defects earlier Shorten the test cycle Reduce the costs to fix defects Accessibility, quickly testing the backend Reduced test execution time, execute 24/7

  7. Sample ROI Calculations ROI - Sample

  8. Guarantee your ROI, before you start…here’s how • Use trained resources • ‘Industrialise’ your manual scripting process • Treat it as a development project • Structured Automation methodology • Dedicated resources • Scope • Schedule • ‘Best practice’,modularise, use functions • Version Control • Start small (POC), then expand aggressively • Maintain your test suite • Move Automation up (into) the development lifecycle • Don’t ‘blinker’ anyone - follow the C.V.D. rule • Outsource
