We automate the test cases only after the 1^st release (we have studied this earlier).

13.1 On what basis do we decide which feature to be automated?

It shows important features and other features 

If the features are very important and need to be repeatedly tested, then we automate that feature. Because manually testing the feature takes longer time and also becomes tedious job.

13.2 How to decide which features are not to be automated?

®    For ex, “HELP” is a feature that is not repeatedly tested – so we don’t have to automate it.

®    If the feature is unstable and has lot of defects – we will not automate because it has to be tested repeatedly manually.

®    If there is a feature that has to be repeatedly tested, but we are predicting a requirement change for that feature – so we don’t automate it as changing the manual test case is easier than changing the automation script.
