Implementing Automated Software Testing

Posted by Rich Crowley in books, Test Automation

This was one of three books I read recently on test automation. The focus of this book is on how to make a case that test automation is a worthwhile initiative to pursue, how to build the business case for automation and assuming you are able to build that case, how to take the necessary initial steps to get an automation regime in place.

What I liked most about this book was how it emphasized the need to separate the automation needs of a given project or projects from the need to get an automation framework or regime in place as a foundation on which to utilize automation successfully within projects.

There is a distinct business-case theme throughout the book which will help those trying to attract the funding needed to get a test automation regime started from scratch.
