Automated E2E (end-to-end) tests frequently are the first thing companies introduce trying to reduce the efforts of manual testing: "There's this big manual testing regression suite, so why don't we automate it? Right? ... Right?"Well, Bas Dijkstra thinks otherwise. In this episode, we'll talk about automating the right things instead, and, why E2E tests are not always the best idea. You'll hear about test models, test ownership, and where to start when you want to learn more about automation in a bit less common way than most of testing courses recommend.Find Bas on:His website: https://www.ontestautomation.com/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/basdijkstra/ Mentions and resources:Bas' article "Breaking down your E2E tests - an example": https://www.ontestautomation.com/breaking-down-your-e2e-tests-an-example/Other recommendations by Bas:Article "Proving E2E Tests are a Scam" by Elliot Murray: https://elliottmurray.medium.com/proving-e2e-tests-are-a-scam-21d39e88913How to grow in automation:Bas' learning path suggestion: https://huddle.eurostarsoftwaretesting.com/resources/test-automation/a-test-automation-learning-path/"Quality Engineer Learning Roadmap" by Blake Norrish: https://medium.com/slalom-build/quality-engineer-learning-roadmap-fddfcb77409eFollow Quality Bits host Lina Zubyte on:Mastodon: https://mastodon.social/@linazubyteTwitter: https://twitter.com/buggylinaLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/linazubyte/Website: https://qualitybits.tech/Follow Quality Bits on your favorite listening platform and Twitter: https://twitter.com/qualitybitstech to stay updated with future content.If you like this podcast and would like to support its making, feel free to buy me a coffee: https://www.buymeacoffee.com/linazubyteThank you for listening! ✨
