In this session, Ajay Balamurgadas addresses a common challenge in test automation: the over-prioritization of UI testing at the expense of API testing. While many teams understand the importance of APIs, they often focus on UI automation, resulting in fragile, hard-to-maintain test suites. This approach leads to wasted resources and diminishing returns, as UI tests become increasingly difficult to manage as the product evolves. Ajay explains how this cycle is reinforced by ineffective metrics that measure the quantity of tests rather than their impact, keeping teams "busy being busy" without driving real value.
