Abstract
Software Test Automation is a renowned way to enhance the test process, but it is not always the best approach for the project, despite that a crucial matter when applying software tests is to decide the viability of automating them. This decision is not always easy to take, because it involves persons exposing their point of view, which can bring a conflict with others opinion. In this context, this work aims to implement a decision aid model based on multicriteria to help test analysts and stakeholders in the selection of use cases for automation, according to organizational and projects’ realities.
