Drawbacks of Automation Testing

• 100% test automation is impractical, generally we try to automate maximum test scenarios.
• All types of testing is not possible (Ex: Usability Testing)
• More Efforts required at initial stage of Test Automation.
• Not suitable dynamically changing UI designs
• Debugging issues
• Tools may have their own defects, so we may not get desired benefits.
• Lack of knowledge
• Environment limitations (In UFT, if you want test Java Application Java Add in required, SAP Application SAP Add in required, UFT is not providing Add ins for All Environments.)
• If it is manual testing no Environment limitations, irrespective of the Application Environment you can apply manual testing methods.
