Using automation method is adopted if our process is repeatable in nature and the time taken to do manual ways are not efficient and economical. We adopt the testing to be done using automation tools either already available or developed own script/software to do the testing process. -Mukesh Chauhan Banglore

Automation is mainly used for regression testing this is done only when the input and output doesn't change for a script. in this there won't be any much change and useually done for diffrent builds with in version.
RE: In general, how do you see automation fitting into the overall process of testing?
Automation can come into picture only when the application has become stable. And in the case of Maintenance projects where we work for continuous improvments and Regression testing is demanded often running the developed automation scripts will save our time.
