Test Automation Tools That Scale: From Zero to 1.6M Users with Sanjay Kumar

About This Episode:

What does it really take to build a test automation tool that millions of testers rely on, without venture capital, paid ads, or a massive team?

In this episode, we explore how SelectorsHub grew into one of the most widely used productivity tools in software testing, reaching over 1.6 million testers worldwide.

You’ll discover:

  • How to build test automation tools that solve real QA pain
  • Why community-driven development beats chasing funding
  • How to prioritize features when you have thousands of users
  • Whether AI testing tools will replace selector-based automation
  • How to choose between Playwright vs Selenium using automation analysis
  • What founders and QA leaders can learn from scaling without VC

If you’re an automation engineer, QA lead, DevOps professional, or tool builder looking to scale smarter, this episode delivers real-world insight without hype.

Whether you’re building frameworks internally or launching your own automation product, you’ll walk away with a clearer strategy for solving problems testers actually care about.
