The world wants more and more automation. If you’re taking your first steps in the automation cosmos, you’re bombarded with whole new concepts and terms, like Git and Docker, and you’re not sure if they even relate to testing. Isn’t automation itself hard enough?

In this session, I’m going to run through a few of the main concepts and tools we’re using in a team that automates their development and testing. But more than that, I’m going to explain why we need them, and how they fit into the goal of releasing quality product.

This is a quick run of terms and concepts you are going to bump into. Learn what’s the difference between CI and CD, how code and tests get built and deployed, and how different testing activities fit into the modern release cycle.

Test Automation is not just a task. It is part of a whole development model you need to understand. It’s a strange new world, and you want to go in speaking the language.
I’ve got the cheat sheet.
