Automated tests are a key component of CI (continuous integration) pipelines. They provide confidence that with newly added check-ins, the build will still work as expected. In some cases, the automated tests have the additional role of gating deployments upon failure.
With such a critical responsibility, it’s important that automated tests are developed to meet the needs of continuous integration.
In this webinar, Angie Jones (Applitools) and Jessica Deen (Microsoft) discussed key factors that should be considered when writing tests that will run as part of CI.
Angie and Jessica also showed a live demo of integrating frontend tests to your pipeline within an Azure DevOps build — so we can see all those theories come to life.
