The Cost of Complexity: How Image-Based Testing Solves the Spaghetti Automation Crisis

We’re all familiar with “Spaghetti Code”: source code that is unstructured, difficult to maintain, and tangled like a bowl of pasta. However, a less discussed but equally damaging phenomenon is plaguing Large-Scale Test Automation and Robotic Process Automation (RPA). We call it “Spaghetti Testing.” Spaghetti Testing occurs when automation suites grow without a unified architecture.

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,

Are your test scripts slowing down your continuous testing pipeline? 

The promise of continuous testing lies in delivering rapid, reliable feedback that enables development teams to maintain velocity whilst ensuring software quality. However, many organisations discover that their test scripts have become the primary bottleneck in their CI/CD pipelines, transforming what should be an accelerating force into a source of delays, frustration and reduced confidence

The Difference Between RPA and Test Automation: Why RPA Can’t Replace Testing
 Automation

Is your automation framework truly data-driven or just repetitive? 

The distinction between truly data-driven automation and merely repetitive scripting represents one of the most critical decisions facing modern software development teams. Whilst many organisations believe they’ve implemented sophisticated automation frameworks, closer examination often reveals collections of hard-coded scripts that repeat identical actions with minimal variation. This fundamental misunderstanding not only limits testing effectiveness but
