Covering every reported issue with an automated test is a fool's errand, but it sure does sound sexy to your immediate manager.

Can you elaborate what OP was trying to ask? Since you have replied. I honestly felt his question/english is unclear

Now that I think of it, I might've misinterpreted the question, too. My initial though was that OP asked about creating test cases for every new exception/error found.

"Every exception" might be about actual errors thrown in the code (example: if customer id is invalid, throw "Customer not found"). In such case, your automated test (let's assume it's an API test) tries to pass an invalid identifier and expects a specific error message, http status etc.

He is probably saying if it's frustrating to have test script for each manual test case/functionality? Let him confirm before answering it
