Full-stack Testing in is the New Normal
summary
Claims that full‑stack testing catches issues across UI, API, backend and middleware earlier, yields faster feedback and fewer late bugs, and transitions into continuous testing once automation for performance runs in CI. Practical steps: start with a simple story, pick tools that fit the tech stack and workflow, run bi‑weekly cross‑team reviews, and have masters‑of‑one train the team. Tradeoffs: short productivity dip for training, clearer handovers required to avoid responsibility gaps.
