Digital Lincoln: Automated UI testing with Tom Austin

Event Information

Tom graduated from the University of Lincoln in 2012 with a masters degree in Computer and Information System before joining Streets Heaver as a software developer. After five years of software development he helped found Streets Heaver's automation team 2 years ago and became the lead of that team where they embrace the power of automation to help deliver value to end users.

Tom will talk about writing Automated UI Tests and how UI tests are flaky, slow to run, expensive to maintain and often go wrong and what can be done to avoid those issues. He will go through the journey of implementing UI tests, how they deliver value, reduce release cycle time and what lessons the team learnt along the way.

In order to keep attendees safe from Covid-19, this event will take place online but we'll try our best to include audience participation, and questions as well as the opportunity to chat with like minded people online. I hope you can join us.
