2. Abstract
Scalability and Quality is a challenge in agile development where the focus is on continuous/early deliveries. One of the means to achieve high quality in agile/cloud model is to have large scale of automates. The same cannot be achieved via traditional practice of creating automation by test engineers. Question is how to achieve high quality automates? A paradigm shift is needed in product teams - Creating and executing test automates by developers as soon as first UI (Partially or Fully) is ready. This is UIADD (UI Automation During Development). Automation of UI begins in Takt N and tested automatically at the end of Takt. In Takt N+1 and beyond, developer can Create/ Extend UI automates.
