Should QA automation start being closer to code? E.g Laravel Dusk Or stick with the norm e.g Python Selenium

The best QA automation implementation depends on your project. Here's a simple guide:

  • Web apps: Use Selenium (flexible), Cypress (fast), or Playwright (modern).
  • Mobile apps: Use Appium (cross-platform) or Espresso (Android).
  • API testing: Use Postman (easy), RestAssured (Java-based), or Karate (all-in-one).
  • Performance: Use JMeter or Gatling.

Best Practices:

  1. Automate repetitive, high-priority tests.
  2. Choose tools that fit your team’s skills and budget.
  3. Integrate automation into your CI/CD pipeline for continuous testing.
  4. Regularly update and maintain your test scripts.

For modern projects, Cypress or Playwright is often the easiest and most effective choice!
