It is important that the users of these automated tools are aware the above mentioned fact. For an example, a software development organization may be using a particular testing tool to test their new releases, but they may have few changes to their new version which may not be able to read or test using the existing setup of current automated testing tool; on such case, they need to contact the automated tool's development company to get support or customize it. Even though this kind of situation requires some effort and investment, it helps to ensure the quality of the end product.
The researches and studies point out that the use of automation tools helps to maintain quality standards during SDLC testing phase and it leads to improved efficiency, effectiveness and communication of entire software development process. The automated tools help to store the data and improve reusability of the data for testing. This advantage of using tools, reduce the time to spend with testing phase. Usually the design & development phase of SDLC takes more time than estimated, that puts the testing team under pressure to test every aspects of the end product within given short time frame. On such situations, these automated tools are helpful to reduce the pressure and speed up the testing process. It is very obvious that, with these automated tools, the time spend on testing phase can be reduced a lot which in turn let the organizations to reduce their overall cost & time which can be invested in any other beneficial business activities.
