Rise of Continuous Non-Functional Testing with Rick Broker

About This Episode:

It’s no secret that suboptimal web and mobile user experiences can negatively impact the bottom line. The problem is that many organizations’ UX, accessibility, security, and performance testing occur separately from functional testing. Often, this type of testing is done until after the code is complete. Rick Broker, a Solutions Architect at Digital.ai, shares why this needs to change in this episode. Discover the value of engaging with all customers, even those with accessibility needs. The challenges of performing non-functional and functional testing separately. And how to add non-functional tests to your CI/CD pipelines, and much more.
