The high volume of E2E, regression, manual and CI tests, crucial for ensuring software quality, comes at the cost of time and resources. Growing build volumes render full test execution impractical, as these suites can take hours or days to complete.

Developers and QA teams are caught in a dilemma: sacrificing quality for faster CI cycles or scaling down testing and risking buggy releases. Continuous testing, essential for DevOps and Agile methodologies, demands faster execution of extensive test suites.

This can be achieved through SeaLights Test Optimization, a solution that provides a deeper understanding of code changes.
