Session Abstract:

Manual software testing can be a laborious process. A full test suite can easily consume dedicated technical resources, not to mention the time required to re-run all tests to ensure the software has not regressed and still meets all quality expectations.

During this breakfast presentation, we will demonstrate how you can leverage automated UI tests to mitigate risk and increase confidence in your project, whilst reducing the time to find potentially costly regressions in the software. We will also dispel the myth of UI automation being considered a painful process and a waste of time, money and effort, by discussing the reasons why UI Automation often fails in projects and ways in which you can avoid those issues.

This will be a high level overview presentation, focusing on the business benefits rather than being overly technical.
