Showcase a 500+ End-to-End (via UI) Test Suite: E2E Test Automation is Surely Feasible for Large/Complex Apps

Implementing End-to-End Test Automation, the most valuable type of testing, is most QA Engineers’ responsibility. Be a ‘test automation engineer’ rather than a ‘test automation coward’. Don’t have the capability? acknowledge and learn! I hope this showcase boosts some test automation engineers’ motivation to do real E2E Test Automation.

Last night, I saw this in my LinkedIn feed.

The view of “Avoiding End-to-End tests” is common, and I usually ignore it. However, this one mentioned the specific number, promoting should do 5 instead of 500 E2E tests. I posted a link to my article, “WhenWise Regression Test Suite Reaches 500 Selenium tests and ~300K Test Executions” (2021).
