The Last Mile in Testing: How Far Can We Go with Headless?
UI testing is often treated as the final stretch of software development as it makes sure that no surprises occur in production. Running a set of UI tests before every sprint ends, however, doesn’t mean that we know what's underneath the surface. Only by employing a combination of good testing stack, tools and strategy adapted to our setup, environments and application can we turn UI testing into a critical instrument to support the last mile of our testing sprint. The tactical use of headless testing helps achieve 90% of the results with 10% of the overall testing efforts.
Learning Objectives:
- How to set up automated UI tests to run as part of CI/CD
- How to build a test stack that doesn’t slow your pipelines
- How to use headless test automation to speed up in-sprint testing
