Maurício AnicheTesting Enablement @ Adyen

Scaling test strategies

Scaling test strategies and test culture is especially hard when you dealing with large-scale software systems built by hundreds of developers. In this talk, I’ll walk you through the different initiatives we have at Adyen to make sure our testing only gets better. I’ll answer questions like:

* Should I focus on unit or integration tests?
* What’s the best strategy to test legacy systems? How to track the progress?
* How to change the culture of teams with different levels of maturity?
* Is automated testing enough?
