If only the robot could do all the thinking and observing that a skilled manual tester can do whilst testing an app... I'm all in favour of automating the bori

I'm all in favour of automating the boring repetitive parts and using automation for things humans can't do but AI ain't here yet
- hugs 13y agoI totally agree. The way I see it, there are two types of manual testing that often get conflated in conversation: 1) Make sure everything that worked yesterday is still working today. 2) Check out this new feature. Let us know what makes sense, and what doesn't. Automation is great for scenario one and (still) terrible for scenario two. Some expert testers prefer to call scenario one "checking". They don't want their high-skill work (which it is) to be confused with low-skill button clicking.
