âšī¸ Test Data Management:
Ensure that test data is consistent and well-managed. Use clean and known data for testing to eliminate data-related issues.
đ Logging and Reporting:
Implement detailed logging in your test scripts to capture relevant information during test execution. Regularly review logs to identify issue
đ Test Reviews and Peer Reviews:
Conduct code reviews and peer reviews of test scripts to catch errors or issues early in the development process and after test results.
đŦ Test Environment Control:
Keep the test environment stable and controlled. Avoid making changes to the test environment during test runs. Ephemeral environments that will be built with IaC tools would be the ideal case.
đĄ Training and Knowledge Sharing:
Ensure that the team responsible for automated testing is well-trained and knowledgeable about best practices in automation.
đ Don’t forget that test automation should be treat as production code.
