📖 Rescuing Test Automation from Its Downfall 🚀

Henry, a once passionate tester, finds himself at a crossroads in his career. What started as a push for more test automation has turned into a struggle. In an overcrowded meeting room, he reflects on how things went wrong.

In our latest article from SQ Mag, Pieter Withaar explores the pitfalls of test automation and the importance of focusing on the right aspects. Test automation is not just about executing tests; it's about generating ideas, defining tests, overcoming technical obstacles, and collaborating with software engineers.

As Henry's role shifted towards automation, he realized the loss of valuable insights. Green checkmarks and red crosses became the measure of success, but they didn't provide a deeper understanding of the system. Automation should empower testers to gain more efficient, frequent, and quick insights into quality.

Discover how organizations can navigate the complex changes that come with increased test automation. From interactions to tooling and architecture, there's a need for a structured approach.

Join us in the #13 edition of SQ Mag to uncover the solutions and rescue test automation from its downfall!

Creativity and innovation in problem-solving
There may be no universal understanding of creativity. The concept is open to interpretation, from artistic expression to problem-solving in the context of economic, social, and sustainable development. Therefore, the United Nations designated 21 April as World Creativity and Innovation Day to raise awareness of the role of creativity and innovation in all aspects of human development.

The essential “human” quality criterion? - Marc Hage Chahine

Software is and must remain a tool. A tool that helps us and makes our lives easier. Unfortunately, we can see that these tools are currently based solely on criteria and indicators that do not really take into account the impact on humans, and that they are, sometimes, going against our interests. It seems essential that testers, but also all the actors in the software industry, become aware of this problem in order to be able to fight against these abuses.
