This track includes topics related to test automation architecture, continuous integration, agile automation, and what other tasks you need to perform after you have designed your framework and scripted your test cases.

However, if it isn’t finished in a Sprint, the QA effort will fall behind. This will make cooperation with the other disciplines in the next sprint harder, and as […]
We all know that Application Programming Interfaces (APIs) are critical in the modern economy. From things as mundane as payment systems to as exciting as self-driving cars, the ability for systems to communicate, exchange information and perform actions autonomously is crucial. However, if you don’t pay attention to the security or performance aspects of APIs, […]

The sentiment being conveyed is that test code should be written with the same care and rigor that production code is written with. However, many people who write […]
People are adding “AI” to everything these days —but the big question is how to test it. We are already seeing AI products go awry. Engineers working on AI fear the little Frankenstein minds they created might make some bad decisions. Like traditional software, this new AI-based software needs to be tested.
