If you look at the backend of a big website coded in CSS, you will encounter many repeating codes. They might be coding for particular text color or text size or even fitting the images to the right size for your screen. The problem comes in when you want to change these codes.

In these cases, “quality” generally means a lack of bugs. While the logic seems sound – there’s a quality issue, so we should hire an expert to handle quality – this instinct is ultimately misguided.

Nowadays most people in organizations understand how visibility into data adds overall value and there is a general dedication to be and remain data driven and increase overall data literacy. At the same time, sometimes there are limitations to how much organizations want to invest or augment their investment in data projects.

As we explained in a previous post, where we explained What End-2-End Testing is, we described End-to-end tests as a frequent type of automated testing used to ensure that your websites work properly (sometimes called e2e tests).
