Guidelines - TA ROI Calculator
 
  • The mouse roll over the (information icon) will guide you in detail on the required inputs
  • All fields which have the information icon are mandatory
  • Please enter the age of your product in terms of years (For e.g. If the product age is 1.7 years, enter as 2 years)
  • Consider the actual number of regression test cycles that is required per release and not the existing number of regression test cycles that are currently performed. (For e.g. You might require 5 regression test cycles per release, but due to resource and time constraints you might only perform 3 cycles)
  • The number of regression cycles performed is inclusive of the execution carried in different number of environments (OS-Browsers-DBs), which should be considered in the number of regression cycles
  • The new features testing time (preparation and execution) are not part of this ROI calculation, but maintenance of existing test suite is considered
  • As per the industry practices, 70% of automation can be done and this is considered as part of this ROI calculation
