In this episode Rich Bradshaw, Simon, David and Chris talk all things automation.

Banter this week is brought to by Rich as we discover TK Maxx is the perfect way to explain exploratory testing.

We dive into our first experiences of automation, going back a while, talking about different tools, tech debt and the frustration. We talk about the joys of source control.

We talk about going full circles from automation to aid us to focusing on the UI automation then end to end testing then back to using automation to help make life easier again. We ponder is automation about making testing more effective, and quality better or saving money?

Discussions move on to talk about creating automation tests and understanding the risks to decide what to test and how both are now common requirements in testers.
