RPA and Testing: Should There Still Be a Divide in 2026?

For many years, testing and robotic process automation (RPA) were treated as separate disciplines. Testing focused on validating applications and managing risk. RPA focused on automating repetitive business processes to improve efficiency. Each had its own tools, teams and ways of working. That separation once made sense. Today, it is becoming increasingly difficult to justify. As organisations

Who Owns Testing Today? Shared Responsibility Across QA, Automation and RPA

Ownership used to feel clear. QA teams planned it, executed it and carried responsibility for quality. Other roles contributed, but accountability was understood. Today, that clarity has shifted. Automation is everywhere, delivery cycles are shorter and responsibility for quality now spans QA, development, operations and the business itself. Testing happens across pipelines, platforms and processes,
