Back in the day, when manual testing was the norm, folks would spend ages crafting test specs in Excel and have someone else review them. But when it came time to actually run the tests, they'd often be short on time or things wouldn’t go smoothly. This led to fudging results since everything was manual. This kind of thing was common, and there were constant inquiries into why these fudging occurred and how to prevent them.
Now? Automating tons of tests and running them instantly is a breeze. I wrote an article showing how you can use an AI coding agent, GitAuto, to whip up integration test PRs in minutes, run those tests immediately, and keep them running continuously going forward. If you're in a similar boat, give it a shot.
