Happy Spring everyone!

Klaus Salchner, former VP of Engineering at BuildDirect Technologies and one of the speakers at our "Two talks on Automation!" (https://www.meetup.com/yvrTesting/events/230555951/) event, will be returning to speak, now as the VP of Engineering at Realtor.com.

Klaus will be covering three topics.

Get ready for an engaging session! See you then!

A/B Testing

If you are not familiar yet, this will be an introduction to A/B testing and how you can leverage this approach to truly measure customer impact before and after a change. It's a practice highly leveraged in the e-commerce and cloud space to truly measure the impact of a change and to be able to iterate through it until you see the desired outcome.

Where in your stack to invest in test automation

This short talk will explain which layer to invest in in test automation and the pros and cons. Too many teams still invest heavily in automated UI testing, which then results in large test automation suites once the platform grows, while still unable to catch critical quality issues before they reach customers.

Testing for reliability, resilience and recovery

Your customer experience is also impacted by how reliable your application is. How do you test for reliability? But also, how do you build and test for resilience? Guaranteed reliability is unachievable and the closer you get the costlier it becomes. Lastly, how do you test for recovery? Once an outage or partial outage happens, how to you recover and how do you prepare for that recovery?
