After all, more automation equals better software, right? There’s a flipside to this equation however, and a point at which we start seeing diminishing returns from each test we add. Taken to extreme, these diminishing returns begin to actively harm our ability to deliver working software.

Continuous Software Pipelines: Why Enterprises Are Going Cloud-Native 2021 Dev Week Cloud Keynote
