I have worked on projects where the customer literally requests: We need to automate the testing for this project!
Basically, this makes me ask:
What do you exactly need me to do?
- What are the goals?
- What are the priorities?
- How do you need me to integrate with the SLC!?
What other challenges do you face as test engineers?

Great topic, Pablo!
Here are many of the challenges I've faced over the years of building automated testing.
1) Creating & supporting your test environment(s).
2) To go along with your 3rd question, Will a failure of the automated tests ever stop a release?
3) How do you get others to contribute to the automation test framework and coverage?
4) How do you make the reporting of the success/failure of the automated tests publicly consumable?
