Panel Discussion: Breaking Myths About a Career in Testing
summary
Myth-busting with concrete claims and examples: accessibility checks are only about 10% automatable, WCAG contrast ratios and keyboard navigation are measured with tools, and a smart‑mirror app for visually impaired users ships features that make people cry with joy. Test automation discusses Selenium vs Playwright and Cypress and mobile testing with Appium, plus hardware work—teams design and run physical test stands, migrate 300 websites, and open-source a tool used on 40+ projects.
