Testing Frameworks: A Practical Comparison

Automation frameworks evolve quickly, and choosing the right one can make or break your testing strategy. In this session, Allan Ferreira won’t prescribe a “best” tool – instead, he’ll compare Selenium, Cypress, Playwright, and others, highlighting their features, ecosystems, and trade-offs.

To cap it off, Allan will showcase an AI-generated test versus a QA Engineer’s approach, offering insights into how artificial intelligence is reshaping test automation.

Key Takeaways:
  • Understand the strengths and weaknesses of popular testing frameworks
  • Learn how to evaluate frameworks based on project needs and trade-offs
  • Explore the impact of AI on test automation practices

Session #1

Allan Ferreira

QA Engineer Mindera

Allan Ferreira is a QA Engineer with 10 years of experience in Manual and Automated Testing. He is proficient in JavaScript-based frameworks such as Playwright and CodeceptJS. Throughout his career, he has worked across diverse industries including Retail, E-commerce, Finance, Gaming, and Access Management.

Allan has a strong background in Front-End and E-commerce testing, while also gaining experience in API and Mobile testing, which consolidated his technical foundations. He is actively engaged in the Quality Assurance community as a Co-Leader and Host at The Test Tribe Porto, where he helps organize monthly meetups for QAs.

Quality Assurance or Quality Engineering? Why Not Both?

In the software industry, different companies adopt different approaches to develop and maintain systems with high-quality standards. But how can this quality be ensured? Should we test exhaustively, or incorporate processes that guarantee quality from the beginning of the development cycle? 

Are testers the guardians of quality, or should developers be the first advocates of quality? Let’s explore these concepts based on real-world examples.

Key Takeaways:
  • Definitions of Quality Assurance and Quality Engineering
  • Identifying the needs of Quality Assurance and Quality Engineering
  • Transitioning from Quality Assurance to Quality Engineering
