What is Automation Guild?

Made for the software pros, by the pros

A premium, community-driven online event Joe Colantonio has run every year since 2017 — bringing real-world experts together for training, Q&A, panels and workshops on the latest E2E automation topics. It is built to help you:

Achieve faster, better, more reliable automation
Avoid little-known mistakes that slow you down
Massively grow your professional network
Stop wasting time on flaky tests
Stay ahead of the curve as AI reshapes testing
Widen your skillset and open better opportunities

Sessions & speakers

37+ sessions across 5 days

Every topic is influenced by TestGuild community votes. With a pass, each session reads “Watch now”; without one, you can preview and buy. Days 1–3 are in the 3-Day Functional pass; Days 4–5 add the E2E workshops.
