A hybrid social life has begun in the spring of 2023 after the pandemic. We have experts at AUTO1 Tech that have been invited to different public speeches.
\nOn May 25th 2023, our Director of Software Quality Assurance, Alexander Gyulai, gave a session on the topic of MODULAR AUTOMATION at TEST AUTOMATION DAYS 2023, where networking with software testing professionals and learning from the world’s leading test automation experts.
\nHe focused on topics of scaling, architecture and collaboration in automation testing. And the details covered in
\nHow and why to move common components into modules and how to re-use it across the company.
\nHow did we scale testing of our platform with 700+ services and hundreds of releases per month.
\nSetup release and distribution process of the automation modules
\nIntegrate platform modules into automation components
\nBesides technical advantages, he also shared how this approach improved collaboration and communication between developers and quality assurance engineers.
\nFabian Schomm-von Auenmüller, Head of Data Platform, was interviewed in July by the Data For Good Podcast, which is hosted by Zuma, a recruitment agency focusing on data technology professionals in Berlin.
\nIn this interview, Fabian focused on the monitoring and assurance of data quality within data pipelines. He explained that data observability encompasses processes from logging to monitoring, alerting, and ensuring data quality throughout its lifecycle. Fabian emphasized that catching data issues early is crucial for maintaining trust and preventing downstream problems. He recommended initiating data observability practices as early as possible and discussed tools like Elementary that integrate well with DBT (Data Build Tool). He highlighted the benefits of having explicit tests to validate assumptions and being prepared for failures. Fabian anticipates that future trends in data observability might involve leveraging AI and machine learning for pattern recognition and anomaly detection, ultimately enhancing the quality and reliability of data pipelines.
\n\nWe are proud of Alexander and Fabian and their works that provided an insight to the everyday projects and challenges the Technology team at the AUTO1 Group manages. We hope you find these as interesting as we do. We all grow along with the company, as does our data and infrastructure. Let’s work SMARTER instead of harder!
