We live in a society where automatization is becoming more common, whether it be cars or artificial intelligence. Software needs to be updated using patches, however, these patches have the possibility of breaking components. This study takes such a patch in the context of Ericsson, identifies what needs to be tested, investigates whether the tests can be automated and assesses how maintainable they are. Interviews were used for the identification of system and software parts in need of testing. Then tests were implemented in an automated test suite to test functionality of either a system or software. The goal was to reduce time of troubleshooting for employees without interrupting sessions for users as well as set up a working test suite. When the automated testing is completed and implemented in the test suite, the study is concluded by measuring the maintainability of the scripts using both metrics and human assessment through interviews. The result showed the testing suite proved maintainable, both from the metric point of view and from human assessment.
