Is automation diminishing the craft of testing by overshadowing critical thinking and creativity?
Automation helps you test faster, not smarter. It follows scripts. Skilled testers bring critical thinking, domain knowledge, and creativity to decide what to automate and how. Treat automation as a tool that frees time for “what if” exploration and user-minded checks so quality goes up, not down.
