What is the power of dashboards, how to test JS libraries, and why it is worth releasing your own open source framework

The post is dedicated to everyone who has virtually not reached our online mitap, which we dedicated to automated testing tools. We publish a video from BugsBusters 2020 – watch and there will be a good start to the week.
