Automated Vs Manual Tests: Effort – Using gFAST Assume 12 Test Cases for Product Manual Effort Effort Required to Run all 12 Test Cases (one Language) => 20 min X 12 = 240 Min(4 Hr) Effort Required to Run on 10 Supported languages => 4 hr X 10 = 40 Hrs Execution Effort for 6 Cycles => 40 Hr X 6 = 240 Man Hours Automation Effort Manual Effort Required to Build 12 Automation Test Cases => 16Hr X 12 = 192 Hours Manual Effort Required to Run 12 Work Flows for 10 Supported languages for 6 Cycles => 0 Hrs Saved Effort for One Product = 240 – 192 = 48 Hours As the Number of Deployments/Test Cases/Release Cycles Increases More Effort will be Saved

Assume 12 Test Cases for Product

Manual Effort

Effort Required to Run all 12 Test Cases (one Language)

=> 20 min X 12 = 240 Min(4 Hr)

Effort Required to Run on 10 Supported languages

=> 4 hr X 10 = 40 Hrs

Execution Effort for 6 Cycles => 40 Hr X 6 = 240 Man Hours

Automation Effort

Manual Effort Required to Build 12 Automation Test Cases => 16Hr X 12 = 192 Hours

Manual Effort Required to Run 12 Work Flows for 10 Supported languages for 6 Cycles

=> 0 Hrs

Saved Effort for One Product = 240 – 192 = 48 Hours

As the Number of

Deployments/Test Cases/Release Cycles

Increases More Effort will be Saved
