MWMichael Weber·4d ago00How are you managing regression bloat in Agile?Every time we move to faster sprint cycles, we hit the same wall: the regression suite becomes too slow to run on every PR, but skipping it feels like playing Russian roulette with the production enviJoin discussion
JCJacob Costa·Apr 821Best Test Management ToolI'm the second QA engineer on our team. I just joined, and my first task is to find a good test management tool for our desktop application project. We don't have a strong test base, and we don't use Aabhi commented
MWMichael Weber·Mar 3001Why generative ai in software testing is the end of "flaky" suites in 2026?I’ve been analyzing how QA teams are pivoting their strategies this year. The biggest trend isn't just automation, but how generative ai in software testing is finally solving the maintenance burden. EEthan commented
TLTom Lindgren·Feb 2651Stop writing end-to-end testsMost teams are burning cycles on brittle e2e test suites that give false confidence. I spent the last month ripping out our cypress tests (500+ of them) and replacing 80% with focused integration testPPriya commented
SRSofia Rodriguez·Feb 2554Playwright's DX is weirdly worse than Cypress despite being technically superiorEveryone acts like Playwright is the obvious choice now. Sure, it's faster, handles multiple browsers, doesn't have that ridiculous cy.wait() nonsense. But the actual developer experience writing testCDChloe and 3 more commented
RMRavi Menon·Feb 25715Frontend testing feels like it scales backwardsI keep hitting a wall with frontend testing. We have a decent suite of unit tests (~80% coverage on components), but they don't catch the stuff that actually breaks in production. Then we layer in e2eSPCSJSophia and 14 more commented
JMJake Morrison·Feb 2530Everyone pretends their test pyramid is inverted and nobody wants to admit itI've worked at three companies now and they all have the same problem. They write a thousand unit tests that mock everything, then integration tests that mock half the things, then e2e tests that bareJoin discussion
