{Topic} App code coverage by automated tests – easy! We made Sealights.io, but open-sourced and free
{Topic description} Have you ever collected code coverage with tests? Most likely these were unit tests. But have you tried to collect them from automated tests, manual tests? What if you even have the incredible value of 100% coverage, does it give you any real understanding? Can you make it actionable? We have written our own tooling to solve this issue. We’ve made it simple and pluggable, without any app code effect, and incidentally have done more than our competitors – but open-sourced. In this talk I will introduce this new tool, share our approach, describe the benefits of test to code mapping, tell you how to make coverage numbers actionable, introduce the first steps for trying it at home, and share our plans going forward.

{Topic} Why everything is spoiled
{Topic description} I will cover the pain points of the Test Automation process in this talk. We will discuss traps, mistakes and crazy decisions that lead to test automation failure and lost budgets.

{Topic} Gradle plugins for Test Automation
{Topic description} In this talk we are going to meet a powerful tool – Gradle plugins – and explore what kinds of problems they can solve in Test Automation. These could be additional quality gates for an automation framework build, or automatic code generation of SUT API endpoints and entities that could be used in tests, or other areas depending on your needs. We will create a couple of plugins right there during the talk and discuss their benefits and drawbacks when compared to other options. By the end, you are going to have one more tool in your Test Automation toolset, and be better prepared for solving different kinds of automation problems in your current and future projects.
