Testing

In this demo-oriented session, you will learn how pragmatic testing, especially within the versatile Azure ecosystem, can evolve from a cumbersome task into an efficiency-enhancing practice.

I will leverage SpecFlow, Xunit, Playwright and Azure Load Testing and demonstrate their value and how they can be integrated in your software release pipelines.
