CAST Live at CAST 2016 distills practical automation rules: automation must support testing, not replace it; regularly review and delete automated checks with product owners so green stays trustworthy; start with browser devtools (press F12/devtools) and learn basic programming before WebDriver; automate heavy state setup and data creation so testers do the exploratory work; prefer API or JS-layer checks over brittle UI tests; prioritize checks that protect reputation and revenue and build short, disposable tools when that saves time.
