Archimedes once wrote, “Give me a place to stand, and a lever long enough, and I will move the world.”

In Agile, the place to stand is testing, and the lever is test automation.

Are you using all the leverage that lever gives you? Most organizations are missing some tricks, and not getting the full value of test automation.

In this keynote, Rex will survey all the different ways you can—and should—take advantage of test automation as an Agile tester.

The best news: Many of these forms of automation involve tools that won’t cost you a dime!

Spend some time learning about some high-ROI, proven best practices to reduce failure costs and increase quality.

Today’s IT systems communicate with customers through multiple points of engagement and various interfaces—ranging from web and mobile to bots and apps like Alexa or Siri.

These systems need to provide seamless handoffs between different points of interaction while providing relevant contextual information quickly.

Teams must be able to pair device hardware capabilities with intelligent software technologies, such as location intelligence, biometric sensing, Bluetooth, and more.

Testing these systems and interfaces is becoming increasingly complex as traditional testing and automation processes simply don’t apply to these next-generation interfaces.

You’ll also learn how to:

1. Apply new testing strategies to multiple interfaces
2. Deliver fast, effective test automation
3. Leverage real-world interface testing successes for your own team

Join this web seminar to discover how to navigate testing the array of interfaces in this new, hyper-connected landscape.

Continuous delivery is a strategy that enables organizations to deliver new features to users as fast and efficiently as possible.

The goal of continuous delivery is to create a stable, repeatable, and reliable process for taking software from idea to production without impacting user experience or affecting business continuity.

If done right, continuous delivery enables a business to increase its confidence in releasing software faster so it can leverage its competitiveness in the market.

Join this web seminar to learn how to solve key automation challenges present in today’s continuous delivery pipelines. You’ll hear about real customer scenarios and understand how they used automation to achieve their delivery goals.

You’ll also learn how to:

• Use automation to reduce time and effort to test apps across multiple platforms and devices
• Reduce the build-to-deploy/test cycle time across the delivery pipeline
• Rapidly stand up and tear down production-like application environments
