There is a perception that the "people" cost is too high with your automation effort.
Do you have a reasonable idea about what this cost actually is? Do you know which automation-related activities and tasks are the most costly? You don't need exact numbers, but you do need some concrete evidence of where your costs currently are, and whether or not they are reasonable.
Return to Maintenance costs too high
Do you have a reasonable idea about what this cost actually is? Do you know which automation-related activities and tasks are the most costly? You don't need exact numbers, but you do need some concrete evidence of where your costs currently are, and whether or not they are reasonable.
What costs have not been budgeted correctly?
Please select from the list below the topic with the most probable cause
- Automation is done (or has been done) ad-hoc with no planning or preparation : look up the issue AD-HOC AUTOMATION.
- Test execution needs manual intervention for the automation to continue. The issue MANUAL INTERVENTIONS suggests the patterns needed to resolve this problem.
- Support for test automation is not the first priority for management, so automators lose time waiting for support from specialists (testers, database administrators, developers). Look up the issue INADEQUATE SUPPORT for help.
- Management thinks that once automation is running there is nothing more to do (who needs maintenance?): the issue to look up in this case is UNREALISTIC EXPECTATIONS.
- Training is needed but is difficult to get or to justify.
Return to Maintenance costs too high
