1-Returns the invesment buy requiring less human power
2-It can run tests 24/7
3-We can reuse the test scripts
4-Automation helps you find bugs in the early stages
5of software development,
6reducing expenses and working hours to fix these problems as well.
7-It is more fun since no repetitive testing
8-Also automating test allows to run tests on thousands of 
9mobile devices.Testing all of them manually would take forever
10In the end you will have a better quality software 
11which will be released earlier, with less problems and
12you have used less resources.

1Benefits of automated testing
21. ROI (Return of Invetsment)
3•	Let’s start from the beginning:
4   the initially big investment. 
5   This may be a hold back for many, 
6   but it is proven that the return of
7   that investment is a long-term one
8   and it will also save time.  
92. RUNNING TESTS 24/7:
10•	No matter where you are in the world.
11   You can start the tests when you leave
12   the office and when you get back in the
13   morning you can see the results and keep on working.
14   You can even do that remotely if you don’t
15   have a lot of devices or you don’t
16   have the possibility to buy them.
173. FEWER HUMAN RESOURCES.
18•	You don’t need a lot of people:
19   you would need a test automation engineer
20   to write your scripts to automate your tests,
21   instead of a lot of people doing
22   boring manual tests over and over again. 
234. REUSABILITY.
24•	The scripts are reusable:
25o	You don’t need new scripts all the time,
26    even if the version of the OS on the
27    device changes It allows you to redo
28    the test exactly the same, without
29    forgetting any steps
305. BUGS:
31•	Automation helps you find bugs in the
32    early stages of software development,
33    reducing expenses and working hours
34    to fix these problems as well.
356. RELIABILITY:
36•	Automated testing is more reliable and
37    way quicker when running boring repetitive
38    standardized tests which can not be skipped,
39    ever, but may cause errors when manually tested.
407. SIMULTANEITY:
41•	You can test more devices simultaneously
42    resulting in comparative detailed reports
43    generated in less time with the exact the
44    same parameters, because the exact
45    same scripts were run.
468. CONTINUITY:
47•	Automated testing helps testers,
48   such as automation engineers.
49   They can see exactly what other engineers
50   have done, what scripts he has already 
51   written and what tests have already been
52   performed and what bugs were already found
53   and fixed, through clear reports.
549. ADDITIONAL METHODS:
55•	One of the these methods is the stress test
56    in which the capacities of the application and
57    operational infrastructure will be tested to
58    it’s limits with stress test,
59    which can’t be done manually.
6010. VOLUME:
61•	Automated testing allows to run tests
62    on thousands of mobile devices
63    Testing all of them manually would be impossible!
