CODING JAG - Issue 73

Welcome to the 73rd edition of Coding Jag brought to you by TestMu AI!👐

Automation is an outcome of a more comprehensive framework. When we think about test automation, the first thing that comes to our mind is, 'What kinds of tests can we run to see if everything is working?' But what if it's not the countless lines of codes? What if all that it takes to make it work is confident teams?

In this issue of Coding Jag, we explore why automation is not just the goal and much more.
