QA Transformation Simplified: Your Playbook to Success
The digital revolution and DevOps adoption are accelerating the need for QA Transformation. Traditional testing practices have been due for change for a long time, but while many are attempting transformation, most are struggling. Despite the buzz around hyper-automation, AI-infused tools, and the rise of SDETs, the industry still lacks clarity on how to execute QA Transformation effectively.
Some view it purely as higher automation adoption, overlooking the broader ecosystem, while others push radical changes that disrupt fundamental QA principles. So, what does QA Transformation really mean? Where do you start, and how do you scale it at an enterprise level?
In this session, Saksham Sarode will break down QA Transformation into clear, actionable steps—defining goals, navigating challenges, and implementing solutions that work. With GenAI revolutionizing test optimization, execution, and defect prevention, this session will also explore how to harness its power for a faster, smarter, and more collaborative QA ecosystem.
Expect real-world lessons and case study, not just theory—because transformation is more than just a buzzword.
