Our tests instability prevent us from delivering
What if you cannot trust your tests? With more and more developers working on our monolith, we have a strong CI to deliver code into production: our goal is to deliver meaningful features to our customers with quality code and a stable platform. But some tests started failing randomly and this spread quickly through our codebase. Test failures block our CI and this leads to a huge waste of time and frustration when the application isn’t actually broken. We’ll explore the importance of tests, common errors that can lead to test flakiness, and strategies we have put in place to mitigate it.
