AutomateOrNot is a decision tree tool that helps testers and QA engineers decide whether to automate a test based on research-backed criteria. It uses a weighted flow of eight factors, starting with test oracle determinism, to produce a clear automate/don't-automate verdict. The project is interesting for grounding test automation decisions in empirical data rather than gut feeling.

Target audience: QA engineers, testers, backend devs, devops
