Hi Anna,

In an increasingly digital age, technology is being used to deliver better business processes in areas as diverse as healthcare, components manufacturing, and hospitality. The overall aim of test automation is to make products and services ‘efficient’, and make a positive impact that will directly relate to creating long-term value for customers and the company.

Here are the most effective QA practices to help you succeed in your career as an automation engineer in an eCommerce domain:

  • Utilize data-driven testing
  • Leverage Cloud-based testing solutions
  • Think like a user, but test like An Engineer
  • Leverage feature flags and isolate new features in production
