What is ROI in automation?


ROI(Return On Investment)

Automated software testing invariably sounds good to IT quality assurance (QA) managers. Intuitively, you see that creating an automated test one time and then running it hundreds or thousands of times will enable you to expand test coverage, find defects earlier, and focus manual test effort where it is really needed. That has to save the company money and reduce business risk, right? But when you submit budget requests for test automation software or services, chief financial officers (CFOs) want more. They evaluate every expenditure based on how much money it will make or save the company, so you must show them what returns the
company can expect on the investment.
