Key takeaways from the presentation

The talk will discuss “a number of key factor that drive successful and sustainable test automation,” said Francome, as “getting them right is crucial to a delivery efficiency in test.”

He continued, “However, efficiency in itself is not enough and in order to be effective, cognitive analytics is required in order to fully deliver optimised automation across the Enterprise.”

Why attend The National Software Testing Conference?

The National Software Testing Conference provides an ideal environment for learning, networking and developing skills.

Stating why he believes people should attend the conference; Francome said “Testing and quality is going through a period of unsurpassed change. Where software is the organisation, whether it’s building digital trust or protecting brand value, coupled with the treat and opportunity Agile and DevOps presents to the testing community, it’s never been more important to understand where the market and profession is developing.”
