How should you approach implementing the best automation solution?

a$)$ Develop test automation for the entire system including the legacy and third party

applications

b$)$ Investigate if automation is possible via the APIs used to interface with the third party

software

c$)$ Develop new automation to test via the GUI of the third party software

d$)$ Investigate if automation can be implemented using the CLI to replace the existing GUI

automation
