What represents good practice when automating a manual regression test suite?

 When automating a manual regression test suite, it is considered good practice to store and access shared test data from a single source when possible. This approach helps to avoid duplication and the introduction of errors, which can occur when multiple sources of test data are used. Centralizing test data ensures consistency across tests and simplifies maintenance, as changes to the data need to be made in only one place. This practice aligns with principles of efficiency and reliability in test automation.
