DATA TESTING AND VALIDATION IN DATA ENGINEERING
- Testing is still completely underrated in the data world. Still, almost all data developers shy away from testing.
- Data teams don’t implement tests in the right places and data issues are caught by end-users
- Data Tests not implemented in the right places
This session will show the audience the WHY, WHERE, and HOW to do data testing and validation before working on any data-driven project using AI and ML-infused emerging concepts and tools.

BACKEND TESTING: FROM CRADLE TO THE GRAVE
The shift from monolithic to microservices architecture has created greater complexity within the IT ecosystem than ever before.
This demands a paradigm shift in Quality engineering practices and has led to a greater focus on backend testing strategies.
We will talk about the strategies for backend testing in the areas of functional, regression, performance, system, and security testing.
This further extended to the production environments that can form robust monitoring solutions.
Look at popular tools in the market like Postman, Rest Assured & open API along with production monitoring tools like NewRelic & Runscope.

GREEN BUILDS, HIDDEN BUGS: UNPACKING TEST AUTOMATION ILLUSIONS
In the modern software development lifecycle, a green build is often hailed as the ultimate hallmark of success. But does it truly signify a bug-free, high-quality product? This session challenges prevailing notions, peeling back the layers of test automation to reveal potential blind spots and misconceptions. We’ll explore how an over-reliance on surface-level metrics can mask underlying issues, leaving critical bugs lurking undetected. By understanding these illusions, attendees will gain insights into optimizing their test automation strategies, ensuring that a green build is not just a facade but a genuine reflection of product robustness.

PERFORMANCE TESTING – SHIFT LEFT & SHIFT RIGHT
Right-shifting involves conducting testing, quality assessments, and performance evaluations in a production environment, subjecting systems to real-world conditions.
The left-shifting approach entails incorporating all testing requirements at the early stages of the software development lifecycle (SDLC), encompassing both functional and non-functional criteria.
