Description
Our host Vernon Richards was joined by Marie Drake to answer all your questions.
As we move towards DevOps ways of working, a key aspect to make it work is to have a solid test automation practice in place. There are so many models out there which can help us define what tests we need to automate on which level. However, if you are new to automation, you might get overwhelmed with the abundance of testing tools out there to choose from. In this session, Marie shared her experience with test automation and answered your burning questions!
