Hi Megha

1.) Ofcourse you should have basic knowledge about the domain in which you work. If you know all the basic things about healthcare domain, then I don't think you will face any problem  in testing. I think understanding the application is more important than domain in which we are working. (its my thinking , not sure).

2.)Yeah it is true that automation testing has more accuracy than manual testing. This is because:
     a.)If a human is asked to do the same task 10 times. First time he will do all the steps carefully, Second time he will adopt some path  which can save his time, third time he may skip some parts which are not more important and so on. I mean to say that we human do not follow the same steps every time but machine(or written script) does the same thing every time. i.e. Objective assessment
     b.) We people can get bore in comparing  two large document but a machine can not. i.e. repeatability and consistency
     c.) Ease of access to information about testing and application.

3.) Forums are the best place to find such question.

Hi Megha,

Below are my understandings for your 3 questions.


1) Initially as you are switching from one domain to another you must be aware of the basic knowledge for that latest domain(Healthcare).
Any domain might have many applications based on that. The testing procedure will remain same , how much you have the domain knowledge better understanding you will able get of the application and able to test  better manner.

2) Automation testing is only for increasing the efficiency and accuracy too. It reduces time time , man power in Long Run. For that you need to write the Script proper and that is a manual thing .You need to understand the application well and it should be well maintainable.
So Initially it might eat up ample amount of time. but once it is done , you will found it beneficial.

3) For interview questions go through Blogs , forums.
