Jas Manigundan
Lead Automation Engineer, Culture Amp
I am Open to Write, Teach, Speak, Mentor
I am a lead test automation engineer working as a part of the QE practice at Culture Amp led by the legendary Anne-Marie Charret.
I'm a developer turned tester. Even though writing code to build applications is so much fun, my now best friend showed me a few years ago that helping write good quality apps is much more fun. I jumped into testing from being a developer and have never looked back. I'm very passionate about native testing frameworks for web, backend, infra and mobile platforms
CI/CD is something I am very passionate about. On the web side of things, AWS CDK has been quite intriguing. I have been an advocate of Infra as Code since working on it. Devops is something that is quite exciting for me, especially given it is always evolving.
I have been speaking at a few international conferences on testing and CI/CD. Saucecon'21, Ministry of Testing's Testbash and UI testing week events to name a few.
It has been so much fun building testing frameworks for a wide range of platforms including mobile, web, infrastructure and microservices.
Please feel free to reach out to chat anything testing.

A hermetic test is a test that is completely self-sufficient. It is fully independent, therefore every time a test is run, you are absolutely sure that a failure is a real failure, and has nothing to do with a dependency going wrong.In order to use hermetic testing to achieve what we want, we first split our e2e into meaningful chunks. The most common breakdown is to split it into frontend and backend systems.We then run our tests within the context of the front end and back end independently. We then add additional levels of tests to make sure we make up for skipping the e2e tests like contract tests, API tests, visual tests and improving existing unit testing coverage.
Jaswanth Manigundan is running a fast paced session at Testbash where he speaks about the lower level tests that one can write and discusses with a very fun group of people.
Why is it important to keep mobile tests inside the native development framework?
