Benefits of Automation Testing	Time In Minutes	Time In Hours	I Year in Hours	II Year in Hours
Testing Time Req. To Complete One Test Case Manually In Minutes = Mt1
Total number of identified Test cases for Product under consideration = Mtt
Manual Execution Time for testcases under consideration for each cycle M = Mt1 * Mtt
Time taken to automate one test case (In Minutes)* At1 = Mt1 * 10
Initial time to Automate total test cases a In hours = Time Taken to automate one testcae At1 X Total Number of Test Cases for Product Under Consideration - Mtt/60		a
Script Maintenance for 2nd year b -> 20 % of Initial time to Automate total test cases Att			20% of a	b
Automated Execution time for test cases y = M/10		y		c = x*y
Number of Cycle needed to test in year (All Hotfixes/Internal Build/Service Packs/Major Release/ different environment / different browsers..)	x
Total Time to Execute Test Cases Manually MT = Total number of cycle in year X * time taken Manually to execute cycle (.8M) (Considering 80% Human Eff.)
Total Time to Execute Test Cases Using Automation Script AT = Total number of cycle x * time taken to execute using automationy
Total number of hours saved in First Year with respect to manual test hours, considering automation initiative S1 = Time taken to execute Manually for all testcases for all test cycles MT - Automation Script creation time a - Automation Script running time y SAVING S1 = MT - a - y
It is not worth to go for automation for one year
Total number of hours saved in Second Year with respect to manual test hours considering automation initiative S2 = Time taken to execute Manually for all testcases for all test cycles MT - Automation Script Maintenance time b - Automation Script running time y SAVING S2 = MT - b - y
Other savings No Cost for Testing tool Reasonable Hardware free No Training Charges for Automation Skills Development Script developed by us is Property of Client which increse IP of Client Running Scripts Overnight so use Resources to develop script during working hours (Script run overnight, effective hours = 16 hours) need to add one additional resource cost saving Time Zone difference benefit
