Manual Testing

• Advantages of Manual Testing
• Exploratory Testing Manual testers can think
  creatively, exploring various scenarios that
  automated tests may miss.
• Usability Assessment It assesses the software's
  user-friendliness and ensures it meets the
  end-users' expectations.
• Early Testing Manual testing can begin even
  before the complete development phase, making it
  valuable for initial checks and feedback

Manual Testing is a traditional method where
testers execute test cases without the use of
automation tools.

Disadvantages of Manual Testing

• Time-Consuming Manual testing can be
  labour-intensive, making it time-consuming and
  expensive, especially for repetitive tasks.
• Limited Repetition It's challenging to repeat
  the same tests frequently and consistently
  without introducing errors.

 Automated Testing

• Advantages of Automated Testing
• Reusability Automated test scripts can be reused
  for multiple test cycles, reducing testing time
  and effort.
• Accuracy Automation eliminates the human factor,
  reducing the risk of errors in testing.
• Speed Automated tests can be run simultaneously
  on different environments, significantly speeding
  up the testing process.

Automated Testing involves using specialized
software tools to perform tests automatically.
5
Disadvantages of Automated Testing

• Initial Setup Creating and maintaining
  automation scripts can be time-consuming and
  require technical expertise.
• Not Suitable for All Scenarios Automated testing
  is less effective for scenarios that require
  human intuition, such as usability and
  exploratory testing.
