On-Demand Webinar: Beyond Pass/Fail Automation

On-Demand WEBINAR

How to Know if Your Automation Program is Actually Healthy

Presented by Brian Smith, Software Engineer

A passed test tells you one thing: what happened in that execution. It doesn’t tell you whether the result can be trusted, whether the run was efficient, or whether the automation behind it is getting harder to maintain. It also won’t show you when the same issues keep repeating across the program without anyone connecting them.

Those are the questions that decide whether an automation program can keep pace with enterprise change. In this on-demand session, Brian Smith walks through the signals that answer them and shows how Automation Insights brings them into view.

Look Past the Test Result

Pass/fail is where most automation reporting stops. This session picks up from there and looks at three questions experienced teams ask about the health of their program.

Make it Right – Can You Trust It?

See how flaky automation, environmental inconsistencies, and implementation choices affect reliability and make problems harder to diagnose.

Make it Fast – Is it Efficient?

Identify wasted execution time, slow processes, and hidden bottlenecks that consume resources without adding value.

Make it Clean – Is it Built to Last?

Understand how growing complexity, process length, and inconsistent practices add maintenance effort and make automation harder to manage over time.

Turning Automation Data Into Something Actionable

Automation teams have been asking these questions for years. The difference now is that they can be answered with data rather than instinct.

Brian shows how Automation Insights analyzes program data to surface patterns across stability, efficiency, and automation practices. Instead of chasing isolated failures, teams can see where attention is needed across the broader automation estate, including automation that is:

  • unstable or inconsistent
  • consuming unnecessary execution time
  • becoming increasingly complex
  • creating avoidable maintenance overhead
  • drifting away from established practices

From Engineering Experience to Program-Level Visibility

Brian Smith is a former Worksoft engineer who played a key role in developing Automation Insights. He brings hands-on engineering experience and a practical view of what healthy automation looks like once you look past pass/fail.

In the session, he connects that perspective to Automation Insights and shows how the signals he’s seen at the engineering level can be surfaced and tracked across a large automation program.

What You’ll Take Away

After watching, you’ll have:

  • a practical framework for evaluating automation health beyond pass/fail
  • a clearer understanding of the signals that indicate reliability, efficiency and maintainability
  • examples of the issues that can sit beneath individual test results
  • a better understanding of how Automation Insights surfaces those patterns at program scale
  • a clearer view of where to investigate, optimize, and focus improvement efforts
