Manual Testing and Automation Testing

software testing

The Manual testing and Automation testing are two ways of testing the software. Below are the differences between manual testing and automation testing.

Manual Testing:

In manual testing software tester plays an important role in testing all the defects or bugs in the software without using any automation tools. Here the software tester follows the manual steps to test the application. It is a step by step process in order to check the quality of the software. In manual testing 100 percent human interaction is compulsory . Without manual effort no testing is succeeded. Here software tester checks the complete behaviour and characteristics of the applications. It is done on all kinds of application for example this type of testing is done for projects which needs continuous updations and changing GUI’s. The goal of manual testing is to make the software error free and it is working on exactly the requirement of the customer. It assures the software quality. Manual Testing understands the problematic issues and it fixes from human perspective.

Automation Testing:

Automation testing uses different software tools to test the source code. This type of testing is used to reduce the manual efforts. The automation testing tools are able to execute programs, check all possible outcomes and compare results with the previous test cases. Maximum number of tests is done in a shorter period of time. In this type of testing manual interaction is not involved. There are many tools used in automation testing like selenium and UFT(unified functional testing)tools etc.The main advantages of automated testing are :

  • It is fast
  • It is reliable
  • We can repeat tests many number of times
  • It is having a large scope
  • It is effortless

For example A new user account is created during the registration process. It checks whether the username is available or not. This testing is done using an automation testing tool like selenium.

  1. Manual Testing is a step by step process in order to check the quality of the software. Software tester checks the complete behaviour and characteristics of applications. It makes the software error free and fulfills the requirement of the costumer. It assures the quality of a software and understand the problematic issues and fixes from human perspective.
    Automation Testing is done by different software tools to test the source code. It is used to reduce the manual efforts. These tools are able to execute the programs, check all possible outcomes, compare result with previous test cases. Selenium and UFT testing tools are used. It is fast, reliable,large scope, repeat test number of times and effortless.

  2. Manual testing is a step by step process in order to check the quality of the software, and tester follows the manual steps to test the application. It is working on exactly the requirement of the customer.
    The automation testing uses different software tools to test the source code, and it reduces the manual efforts. It is much faster, more reliable, and repeat tests many number of times without effort.

  3. 1. Identify the differences between manual testing and automation testing.

    Automation Testing
    Automation testing perform the same operation each time
    Automation testing is very much helpful regressions in testing where code changes frequently.
    Automation testing will be useful to execute the set of test cases frequently.
    After making Automation test suites, fewer testers required to execute the test cases.
    Automation testing can also be done on different machine with different OS platform combination, concurrently.
    Using Automation testing, testers can test complicated application too.
    Automation runs test cases significantly faster than human resources.
    Sometimes it is not helpful in UI testing
    Automation testing is very useful for automating the Build Verification Testing (BVT) & it is not mundane and tiresome.
    Initial cost of automation testing is more than manual testing but useful always.

    Manual Testing
    Manual testing is not reliable. Using this method test execution is not accurate all the time.
    To execute the test cases first time using manual testing will be very much useful. But it is not sure that it will catch the regression defects under frequently changing requirements.
    Manual testing will be useful when the test case only needs to run once or twice.
    To execute the test cases every time tester requires the same amount of time.
    Using manual testing, testing on different machine with different OS platform combination is not possible, concurrently. To execute such task different testers are required.
    It does not involve in programming task to fetch hidden information.
    Manual testing is slower than automation. Running tests manually can be very time consuming.
    It is very much helpful in UI testing
    To execute the Build Verification Testing (BVT) is very mundane and tiresome in manual testing.
    Manual testing requires less cost than automation.

  4. Ans.: Difference between manual testing & automation testing are:
    • Manual testing is not accurate at all times due to human error, hence it is less reliable BUT Automated testing is more reliable, as it is performed by tools and/or scripts.
    • Manual testing is time consuming, taking up human resources BUT Automated testing is executed by software tools, so it is significantly faster than a manual approach
    • In Manual testing Investment is required for human resources BUT in Automated testing investment is required for testing tools.
    • Manual testing is only practical when the test cases are run once or twice, and frequent repetition is not required BUT Automated testing is a practical option when the test cases are run repeatedly over a long time period.

  5. Manual testing is a step by step process in order to check the quality of the software. it checks the complete behavior and characteristics of the application. this type of testing is done which needs continuous updation. it also understands the problematic issues and it fixes from human perspectives. whereas automation testing uses different software tools to test the source code. it reduces the manual efforts. it also able to execute programs, check all the possible outcomes and compare results with the previous test cases.

  6. In manual testing test cases are executed manually without any support from tools or scripts. but with automation testing test cases are executed with the assistance of tools scripts and software. Testing is an integral part of any successful software project.

  7. 1. Identify the differences between manual testing and automation testing.

    The automation testing uses different software tools to test the source code. This type of testing is used to reduce the manual efforts.

  29. Manual Testing as the term suggests is conducted manually by testers. The software testing is performed by manual software testers from start to finish with step by step process of testing. Manual testing requires high number of man-hours in testing and can be cumbersome for complex software testing. In automation testing, the test team uses automated testing techniques to test the software. Automated testing tools are faster, reliable and can be run multiple times.

  30. MANUAL TESTING:
    Manual testing is done by testers . Here testers play an important role . The process is done in step by step procedure to satisfy the customer. They will test all the scripts and if they find any defects ,developers will fix it.
    AUTOMATION TESTING:

    This testing is done with different tools like selenium etc. It is fast,reliable and effortless. Generally automation is used for performance testing. These tools are so expensive.

  31. manual testing is a testing done manually without using any tools. it involves a manual step by step procedure to check the errors .
    automation testing is done with different tools like selenium etc. It is fast ,reliable and effortless. Generally automation is used for performance testing.

  32. 1. Identify the differences between manual testing and automation testing.
    Ans.1 Software testing can be broadly categorized into two areas.
    1. Manual testing
    2. Automation Testing.
    Manual testing:- In manual testing test cases are executed manually by QA as the name itself suggest manual.It is performed without any support from tools or script.It is best suited in scenarios like exploratory testing where testing is done using testers knowledge,analytical,logical skill and creativity.We need the human skills to execute the testing proces in this scenario.
    Also it is done for usability testing,here we need to measure how software is user friendly so manual testing is prefered.

    Automation testing:-Here test cases are executed with the assistance of tools,scripts and software.Tools used are Selenium and UFT(Unified functional testing) tools.
    It is preferred in the following scenarios like Regression testing,Load testing,repeated execution and performance testing.Where repeated execution of task then automation testing is best suited.

  33. Identify the differences between manual testing and automation testing.

    In Manual testing, test cases are executed manually (by a human, that is) without any support from tools or scripts. Manual testing is not reliable. Using this method test execution is not accurate all the time. It does not involve in programming task to fetch hidden information. It does not involve in programming task to fetch hidden information.
    In contrast to automated testing, test cases are executed with the assistance of tools, scripts, and software. It is a method which uses automation tools to run tests that repeat predefined actions, matches the developed program’s probable and real results. Automation runs test cases significantly faster than human resources. Unfortunately, Initial cost of automation testing is more than manual testing but useful always.

  34. manual testing: In Manual testing the human carries out step by step process in order to check the quality of the software. Here software tester checks the complete behavior and characteristics of the applications. In manual testing 100 percent human interaction is compulsory. This testing is time consuming, can not be reused, and all the efforts are needed to complete the task.

    automation testing: In Automation testing the step by step process is carried out by the automation tool to check the quality of the software. This type of testing is used to reduce the manual efforts. The automation testing tools are able to execute programs, check all possible outcomes and compare results with the previous test cases. Maximum number of tests is done in a shorter period of time. This testing is fast, reliable, reusable, effortless.

  35. Manual testing is testing of the software where tests are executed manually by a QA Analysts. It is performed to discover bugs in software under development.
    In Manual testing, the tester checks all the essential features of the given application or software. In this process, the software testers execute the test cases and generate the test reports without the help of any automation software testing tools.
    In Automated Software Testing, testers write code/test scripts to automate test execution. Testers use appropriate automation tools to develop the test scripts and validate the software. The goal is to complete test execution in a less amount of time.

    Automated testing entirely relies on the pre-scripted test which runs automatically to compare actual result with the expected results. This helps the tester to determine whether or not an application performs as expected.

  36. • In manual testing, test cases are executed manually (by a tester) without any support from tools or scripts.
    • But with automated testing, test cases are executed with the assistance of tools, scripts, and software.
    • Manual testing less reliable, time consuming compare to automated testing.

  37. In manual testing, test cases are executed manually (by a human) without any support from tools or scripts, therefore, is time consuming. But with automated testing, test cases are executed with the assistance of tools, scripts, and software so it is much faster than manual approach.
    Manual testing is not accurate at all times due to human errors; but automated testing is more reliable as it is performed by tools or scripts.
    Both manual and automated testing require investment

    b)Software tester plays crucial role in Manual Testing in contrast to the Automation testing where manual efforts are minimal.
    c)Automation Testing is fast,reliable,effortless,have larger scope and can be repeated more number of times in comparison to Manual testing.

  42. Identify the differences between manual testing and automation testing.
    In manual testing, the tester plays an important role, by executing the software and finding defects without the use of automation tools. This type of testing is mostly suited for exploratory Testing, adhoc Testing , usability testing. Here , human interaction is 100%. The tester follows the software testing lifecycle. Here human errors cannot be avoided.
    In automation testing, the software testing procedure is carried out using automation tools. It is also known as capture or re play back tools. Here, The test scripts are used to test the functionalities of the software with huge values of data sets, expected outcome, detailed generation of reports. Exhaustive testing can be possible. Human errors can be avoided. It provides reliable and efficient software. We can have confidence in the software. Quality of the software is high. Testing cost is low. Repeatable and reusable testing can be done because of this retesting and Regression Testing is possible.

  43. Manual Testing: In the software tester follows the manual steps to test the application. It is a step by step process in order to check the quality of the software. In manual testing 100 percent human interaction is compulsory. The software tester checks the complete behaviour and characteristics of the applications.
    The goal of manual testing is to make the software error free.
    Automation Testing:The automation testing tools are able to execute programs, check all possible outcomes and compare results with the previous test cases. Maximum number of tests is done in a shorter period of time. No manual interaction. There are many tools used in automation testing like selenium and UFT(unified functional testing)tools etc. Automation testing is fast, reliable. and test can be repeated
    For example: A new user account is created during registration process. It checks whether the username is available or not. This testing is done using an automation testing tool like selenium.

  44. Both manual and automated testing offer benefits and disadvantages. In manual testing (as the name suggests), test cases are executed manually (by a human, that is) without any support from tools or scripts. But with automated testing, test cases are executed with the assistance of tools, scripts, and software.
    Manual testing is testing of the software where tests are executed manually by a QA Analysts. It is performed to discover bugs in software under development.
    In Manual testing, the tester checks all the essential features of the given application or software. In this process, the software testers execute the test cases and generate the test reports without the help of any automation software testing tools.
    It is a classical method of all testing types and helps find bugs in software systems. It is generally conducted by an experienced tester to accomplish the software testing process.
    In Automated Software Testing, testers write code/test scripts to automate test execution. Testers use appropriate automation tools to develop the test scripts and validate the software. The goal is to complete test execution in a less amount of time.
    Automated testing entirely relies on the pre-scripted test which runs automatically to compare actual result with the expected results. This helps the tester to determine whether or not an application performs as expected.
    Automated testing allows you to execute repetitive task and regression test without the intervention of manual tester. Even though all processes are performed automatically, automation requires some manual effort to create initial testing scripts.

  45. Differences between manual testing and automation testing.
    In manual testing there is no use of software tool but is used in automation testing.
    Manual testing understands the problematic issues and fixes from human perspective while manual interaction is not involved in automation testing.
    Automation testing is reliable, fast, effortless comparing to manual testing.

  46. Manual testing Vs Automated testing:
    Manual testing is conducted by software testers alone, without the use of any tools. This kind of testing may be preferable for small projects and projects where requirements change frequently or updates are frequent. sometimes experienced testers can identify the change in functionality and test it faster.

    Automated testing: This type of testing uses tools for testing. This helps to speed up the process, helps in repeating the tests. Certain tests like load test, regression test are better if automated, as they need to be run over and over again. Selection of tools and use of automation depends on the sie of the project, type of testing, budget, skillset of the team. Learning curve for learning a new testing tool must be built into the project time and budget.

  47. Manual Testing – Manual testing is the process of testing the software manually to find the defects. Tester should ensure all the features are working per the end-user requirements. The investment for the manual testing is less compared to the automated testing.
    Automated Testing -Automation testing is the process of testing the software using an automation tools to find the defects. The test scripts are executed he results generated automatically using the automation tools. This is more reliable than the manual testing as human errors are reduced. The test scripts are reused but this is not possible in manual testing. Manual testing is very time consuming.

  48. • In Manual testing, the software tester tests all the defects or bugs in the software without using any automation tools. Automation testing uses different software tools to test the source code.
    • Manual testing is time-consuming due to running test cases as everything is done manually. Automated testing is much faster than manual testing due to the use of software
    • In manual testing tester can observe the application during testing, making the user-friendliness better. In Automation testing, there is less UI feedback.
    • Manual testing is less expensive in the short-term. Automation testing could be costly initially, but in the long-term, it will reduce the cost.
