The holiday rush isn’t just stressful for shoppers – it’s make-or-break for retailers. In this episode of PLATO Panel Talks, Mike Hrycyk sits down with QA experts Susan Finley and Samta Kaura (PLATO) to unpack how teams prepare for holiday and Black Friday testing. 

They dive into the real risks of downtime, the importance of performance and functional testing, and why code freezes never quite hold. From managing last-minute patches to coordinating with third-party systems, the panel shares lessons learned from years in retail QA and offers tips for keeping sites stable when traffic and tension are at their peak.
