Test Automation

The world has moved to rapid product release cycles. Gone are the days when product managers planned for a big release every three to four years.

Now developers are being asked to react swiftly to customer feedback and to release new features rapidly, often and against shorter release cycles. In this fast-moving environment, developers face the challenging task of continuously updating their software while still ensuring that their product meets a high-quality bar.

Key question developers face is this – how can I ensure a continuous release cadence while maintaining a high-quality bar? The answer lies in automated testing.

Automated testing helps developers run tests early and often to ensure that they are testing their software quality continuously and making sound decisions on whether to release their product or not. Test automation has various benefits, including but not limited to obtaining early feedback, shortening the release cycles, reducing cost, measuring quality continuously, avoiding regressions, shipping high-quality product,s and finally, making their customers happy.

It is important to note that test automation should be done in the right way and at the right time to ensure a high-quality release.
