In this episode
We discussed the must-have practices engineering teams should implement into their processes, along with the different challenges that can arise in software testing and the tips & tricks that help solve them. We also looked at Angie’s test automation maturity framework that helps teams measure how advanced they are and enables them to reach a higher level in DevTestOps.
Some of the most interesting questions we covered in this episode:
- What role will AI play in software testing and how will it impact the day-to-day work of developers?
- Which tests should be automated and which ones are still better done manually?
- What is your opinion about the future of codeless testing tools and their effects on the test engineers' role?
- How to scale and look after an ever-growing test suite?
- How to choose between native and cross-platform mobile test automation frameworks?
