It is the practice of running tests on software or websites with minimal human interaction. It's the most effective way to ensure that your code is tested in a consistent and repeatable manner, which improves the quality of your software applications and allows you to fix problems or avoid mistakes that would otherwise be difficult to detect manually. Because it allows for repeatable and consistent results over time, automation testing is more efficient than manual testing.</p> <p>With <a href="https://aviyel.com/projects/50/testsigmahq">Testsigma</a>, a powerful open source test automation platform for web apps, mobile apps, and APIs, you can build stable and reliable end-to-end tests at DevOps speed!</p> <p>For those who want to know more about how <strong>Testsigma</strong> is simplifying test automation, we are delighted to have <strong>Rukmangada Naidu &amp; Amit Wadekar</strong> from the team for an AMA Session.</p> <h2> About the speakers </h2> <p><strong>Rukmangada Naidu (aka KR)</strong>: KR is the founder and CEO of Testsigma, an open-source and codeless test automation platform for testers worldwide.
