You might average a test case every 5 seconds or so. Automation might be able to run 10,100 or even 1000 times that fast.<\/p>\n<h2>Efficiency<\/h2>\n<p>You can&#8217;t do anything else while you are busy running test cases. If you have a test tool that reduces your time to run your tests, you have more time to plan and think up new tests.<\/p>\n<h2>Accuracy<\/h2>\n<p>After trying a few hundred cases, your attention span will wane, and you\u2019ll start to make mistakes. A test tool will perform the same test and check the results perfectly every time.<\/p>\n<h2>Relentlessness<\/h2>\n<p>Test tools and automation never tire or give up.
