How much it is worth to you to be first and fast into market ? How complicated is your product, can you keep the high quality with profession less resources.
Test automation framework is a set of assumptions, concepts and tools that provide support for automated software testing. The main advantage of such a framework is its low cost for maintenance. If there is a change in any test case, only then, the test case file needs to be updated while the Driver Script and Startup script remains the same. There's no need to update the scripts in case of any changes to the application. Choosing right framework/scripting technique helps in maintaining the costs.
