complex and the automation effort required was very steep. So the team decided
not to automate them.
Due to automation, effort reduction in test case execution was to the tune of 85%
for one application. On average, effort reduction came in at 76%. In Figure 11.8
times required in manual test execution and automated test execution for the same
test cases for some applications are depicted. You can see that time required has
shrunk considerably. In Figure 11.9 this shrinkage is shown in percentage figures.
