Summary

SaltStack, renowned for its intelligent IT automation software, faced challenges with long testing cycles and potential bugs due to rapid feature development and manual testing. To address these issues, the company adopted Cypress, significantly reducing regressions by over 90% and enabling a single QA engineer to author 300 automated tests within a month. Eventually, SaltStack achieved 100% coverage of new features with over 1,200 tests. A webcast scheduled for May 22nd will delve into how SaltStack's engineering and QA teams strengthened their collaboration to tackle these challenges, featuring technical demonstrations of their testing strategies, including the migration from React to Angular. The event will offer live Q&A, with a recording available for those unable to attend live.
