Implement the automation logic and functionality using the selected test automation tools and technologies.
Verify the correctness of your automated test scripts and ensure they cover the desired test scenarios.

Transitioning from Manual to Automated Testing
To enable the transition of testing from a manual to an automated approach, follow these steps:

Evaluate your existing manual test cases and identify the ones that are suitable for automation.
Design and implement automated versions of the selected manual test cases.
Run the automated test cases and compare the results with the expected outcomes.
Iteratively refine and improve your automated test cases based on feedback and test coverage requirements.

Creating Automated Test Reporting and Metrics
To create automated test reporting and collect metrics, follow these steps:

Define the key metrics and reporting requirements for your automated testing process.
Implement mechanisms for capturing and storing relevant test execution data, such as test results, coverage information, and performance metrics.
Create reports and visualizations to present the collected metrics in a meaningful way.
Analyze the collected metrics to gain insights into the effectiveness of your automated testing process and identify areas for improvement.

Analyzing System Under Test for Automation
To analyze a system under test and determine the appropriate automation solution, follow these steps:

Understand the architecture and components of the system under test.
Identify the test scenarios and test cases that are suitable for automation based on factors such as repeatability, complexity, and time constraints.
Evaluate the feasibility of automating the identified test scenarios and test cases, considering factors such as technical requirements, test data availability, and tool compatibility.
