Is automation of tests an option? A comparative study between manual and automated testing and the requirements that could be placed on an automation (English)
Abstract [en]

Automating test processes is becoming more and more up-to-date and one of the reasons is that manual tests are time-consuming and complicated. The aim of the study is to identify the manual test process in integration systems to see if there can be a value in automating them and which requirements can then form the basis of an automation. Pros and cons of both manual and automated tests are highlighted in the study in order to make a fair comparison between them. The advantages of the automation that has been highlighted have since, together with collected empirical data at the company Pulsen Integration, been used to produce a requirement list for automation. The study addresses whether it is worth automating all processes or whether some of the test activities work better as manual. By looking at Pulsen Integration's testing processes, one could see that some flexible processes are better as manual, while more general activities can be more easily automated. The study has had a qualitative approach and the chosen respondents from Pulsen Integration contributed with information to be able to produce a relevant list of requirements. We believe that the result presented can be generalized to companies in similar context.
