In the newest episode of On Rails, @robbyrussell speaks with @jaytennier, Engineering Manager at @rainforestqa, about maintaining a long-lived Rails monolith with a small team, why Rainforest pulled microservices back in, how they use adapters for third-party services, and why BigQuery handles their analytics load. Jay also shares their testing philosophy (“wet tests” > DRY), using dry-monads for complex flows, and how celebrating code deletion became part of their culture.

Had a chance to dig in with @rainforestqa's @jaytennier about what it really takes to keep a long-lived Rails monolith thriving with a small team.

"Free" tools come with hidden costs, especially time. 55% of teams spend 20+ hours a week maintaining tests. Discover how no-code tools can save time and speed up your software delivery in @RainforestQA COO Lauren Harold's article.

1/ Startups, beware: relying solely on “free” open-source testing tools can be more costly than you think. This is such great advice from the COO of @rainforestqa, and why she says investing in robust testing solutions is crucial. 🧵

For startups and teams of all sizes, E2E #testing is both critical to maintaining product quality, and one of the most painful processes in CI/CD. Lauren Harold of @rainforestqa offers #predictions for how the evolution of #QA will shape #devops in the coming year. vmblog.com/archive/2024/11/2…

A study by Rainforest QA indicates that while 81% of developers are using generative AI in software testing, significant productivity improvements are still hard to achieve due to existing challenges in traditional open-source frameworks. techday.co.nz/story/study-sh…

"Unlike all the vanity-driven AI implementations I’ve seen, Rainforest QA’s self-healing tests feature is an awesome use case for AI that has been executed really well and adds immediate value."

"I love the changes you are making to help it be less brittle/flaky. We used to have a huge, impossible-to-maintain set of tests in Cypress, and now we let @rainforestqa do all the work for us. Much better."

"9 out of 10 of the AI tools out there are trash (doing AI for the sake of doing AI but not actually useful) but yours is the exception"

For quick and dirty non code based automation on web it’s hard to beat @rainforestqa

Automated testing is about finding the right level of confidence that your software will be of acceptable quality for the criticality in question. It's not about finding certainty. It's confidence validated by reality. Understand this and testing becomes much easier.

last week we released AI testing to our customers... prompts generate self-healing automated tests
80% of testing work is test maintenance because the tests are dumb. tests are now becoming smart :)
this is the most important feature we've shipped

You've probably heard that building on top of unreliable AI agents is a bad idea?
Good news: it's possible to build reliable systems out of unreliable components! I've learned a thing or two while building our latest thing @rainforestqa and want to share some lessons 🧵

launched AI Search at @rainforestqa -- this means you can use ChatGPT to identify an element within the interface that you want to interact with, drastically decreasing test automation brittleness
proud of @maciejgryka and the team for shipping this!

"the biggest thing that drew me to @rainforestqa is that it's no code ... this all stemmed from my past experience using Cypress" -- customer interview rn

Early-stage, unit tests make more harm than good.
Set up @rainforestqa to test your signup / checkout flow, and one key functionality. That's all you need.
