Test automation projects start with the best of intentions but then often fail because they don’t meet their milestones. When the project started, the goals were simple enough. Build test coverage. Run weekly regression tests. Catch more bugs. As the project grew, it added complexity—more tests, people, and releases. Flaky tests start sucking up more time for maintenance. To keep up, your team needs a more comprehensive approach to scaling the operational aspects of testing.

Afterwards, he will provide an alternative way to think about QA and how we can measure these expectations against certain metrics and KPIs.
