How much can AI testing save compared to manual testing over 3 years?

The exact number is hard to predict as it is based on the size of the QA team, releases and the time spent on each maintenance. From Accelirate’s perspective, you can estimate last year’s savings with your current testing hours and costs.

How long does it take to see the return of AI-assisted testing?

It is good to measure in months when a team starts with a large, repetitive regression process. Accelirate experience with an international bank client shows that it takes at least six months compared to the old testing method that takes eighteen months. To get a better result, choose the right use cases, connect AI with the development process and keep humans in the loop when required.

Can AI testing reduce QA team burnout?

Yes, it can help well if there is repeated work testing workload because that is one of the reasons for human errors, and it can free up your human force in testing for some other essential work.

What are the hidden costs of manual testing?

There are many hidden costs for manual QA, including delays in release, production bugs, test maintenance problems, and team burnout, as they may leave, and the company has to find new hires. More than that, there is an extra cost as the team fights with them while competitors spend time bringing new features and modernization.

Does automated testing completely replace manual QA?

No. Automated testing is best for recurring tasks that include regression, cross-browser, and high-frequency release-cycle testing. For other work such as exploratory testing and judgment-based cases, human testers are necessary. Many companies are opting for a hybrid method rather than eliminating manual QA entirely.
