132. Antipatterns in test automation
Bram and Christian discuss common antipatterns in test automation, emphasizing that it should be approached with the same discipline as traditional software development. They warn against putting too much logic in UI tests and advocate testing business rules in unit and backend layers. Fragile end-to-end tests should be split into smaller scenarios, supported by APIs and better test data setup. They also highlight the importance of stable selectors, smart waiting strategies, and consistent environments to prevent flaky tests.
