During which stage does an automation developer have the least contribution and responsibility?

According to the UiPath Automation Implementation Methodology, the automation lifecycle consists of six stages: Discovery and Kickoff, Process Analysis, Solution Design, Development and Unit Testing, Integration and UAT, and Deployment and Hypercare. The automation developer has the least contribution and responsibility in the first three stages, as they are mainly focused on identifying, analyzing, and designing the automation solution. The automation developer’s role is more prominent in the last three stages, as they are responsible for developing, testing, deploying, and monitoring the automation projects and components. References: Automation Lifecycle - Standalone, Automation Developer
