Increase Trust and Security with Automated Testing

Increase Trust and Security with Automated Testing

Reliable software requires a commitment to automated quality gates. In August 2024, I spoke at a GDG Presentation about building trust and security through automated testing.

Manual testing doesn’t scale. In this session, I explored how automated test suites protect applications from regressions, mitigate security vulnerabilities, and give development teams confidence to deploy.

Key Takeaways:

  • Testing Pyramid: Balancing unit, integration, and end-to-end tests.
  • Mocking Integrations: Isolating code under test from external API dependencies.
  • Security Audits in CI: Automating dependency and vulnerability scans.
  • Quality Gates: Blocking broken builds from progressing to staging or production.
