What signs indicate the need for test automation for a specific application?

Test automation becomes necessary when:

• The application changes frequently and requires regular regression testing.
• There is a large volume of repetitive tests that are difficult and time-consuming to perform manually.
• High quality and stability of the product need to be ensured during frequent releases.
• The project uses Agile or CI/CD methodologies, where quick feedback is important.
• Tests need to be executed on different configurations or platforms.
• There are critical business functions where errors are unacceptable.

Automation allows to speed up testing, reduce human error, and increase test coverage.
