Testing Less, Achieving More: How we mastered The Art of Strategic Testing

 

In the rapid landscape of modern software development, it’s a frequent occurrence to face a situation where the demands for testing exceed our available resources. This often manifests as a seemingly endless backlog of new automated test coverage and test maintenance, compounded by insufficient resources to address it adequately. Consequently, despite these challenges, production issues persist at concerning rates.
I am thrilled to share my journey and experience navigating these very challenges within the organization I work for. Furthermore, we’ll explore how strategic testing extends beyond testing methodologies and resource management – but it also fosters a positive team dynamic, enhances stakeholder confidence, and unlocks new opportunities.
