Summary

In the Testμ’23 Conference, Mesut Durukal, a QA Automation Engineer at Indeed, discussed the concept of Testing as a Service (TaaS) and the implementation of a centralized test automation framework to address common challenges in large organizations. He highlighted the inefficiencies stemming from teams independently solving similar problems, leading to duplicated efforts and inconsistent testing methodologies. Mesut proposed a centralized framework that standardizes testing processes, reduces redundancy, and enhances code quality through shared repositories of pre-built functions. This approach fosters collaboration, improves traceability, and supports efficient test execution across projects. The framework's benefits include standardized implementation, reduced anti-patterns, and enhanced monitoring capabilities. Mesut emphasized the importance of setting measurable objectives and key metrics to assess the framework's impact and encouraged a feedback-driven iterative development process to continuously improve the system.
