Golden nuggets to improve automated test execution time

End-to-end testing is a crucial part of agile development, but it can be challenging to achieve seamless regression tests, especially when cross-browser and cross-device compatibility comes into play. Automation helps reduce manual activity and prevent overlooked bugs. However, as the test suite grows, build time increases exponentially. To mitigate this issue, developers should follow good practices such as skipping UI-based login/logout, avoiding consent banner interaction, using direct links for interaction, prepping with APIs, avoiding third-party interactions, creating atomic tests, and avoiding dynamic sections of the UI. These practices can help reduce excessive time leaks and achieve faster test builds.
