How Test Automation Helps Reduce Testing Cycle Time: Strategies for Faster Delivery
- Mihai Alexandru MihalacheQA Test ManagerLEGO Education
- Akhil GundawarDirector of Product ManagementBrowserStack
This session will explore how test automation accelerates testing cycles, enabling faster product delivery. We’ll dive into strategies for adopting in-sprint automation, selecting the right tools, and integrating with CI/CD pipelines to streamline testing processes. Learn how automation reduces manual effort, prioritizes high-risk tests, and optimizes workflows. We’ll also discuss how cloud platforms like BrowserStack help scale testing across devices and browsers, providing measurable improvements in cycle time.
From CI to CD: a test optimization blueprint for high-velocity teams
- Vineet KothariEngineering LeadIllumio
- Sourav KunduGroup Product ManagerBrowserStack
Most teams have CI under control, but CD remains elusive. Flaky tests, slow feedback loops, and a lack of trust in automation force teams to rely on manual approvals and deployment delays. In this session, we’ll break down why test automation often fails to keep pace with engineering velocity—and how high-performing teams tackle stability, observability, and speed to unlock true Continuous Deployment.
Accessibility beyond the mandate: Creating inclusive experiences for all
- Ronny HendriksHead of AccessibilityNomensa
- Arvind GanesanDirector of Product ManagementBrowserStack
Accessibility is often viewed as a legal requirement, but it should be seen as an opportunity to create more inclusive and innovative experiences. This fireside chat will focus on navigating the complexities of regulatory requirements, including WCAG, and EAA, and how going beyond the mandate of accessibility can lead to better design, user experience, and social impact. Participants will learn practical strategies for integrating accessibility into their products and services to serve diverse audiences and foster a truly inclusive environment.
