On Feb 19th, Tokopedia in association with ISQA organized the 28th Tech-a-Break event at Tokopedia Tower, the event exclusively focused on Test Engineering at Scale. We kicked off the morning with a keynote speaker ‘Rajesh Gopala Krishnan’, our AVP of Test Engineering from Tokopedia and opened the floor to two amazing speakers to share their knowledge, Harries Efrika and Buddy Arifin, from Tokopedia and Bizzy respectively.

During the past six months, QA engineers in Tokopedia have been on a transformational journey, working and sailing hard toward Test Engineering field. The journey has opened up more opportunities in the area of Functional and Performance test engineering across the organization. Our current North Star of Tokopedia’s Test Engineering reciprocates an industry trend of digital transformation.

Our first session was by Harries Efrika, he focused on “How to create and manage performance test”. He gave us an overview of the performance test, performance automation, and reporting. He also shared how automated performance test could cut down manual effort, bringing down testing costs and producing better results.

The second session by Buddy Arifin talked about “How to do testing in DevOps”. He explained how testing could be made powerful and seamless by enabling Continuous Integration and Continuous Delivery. These integration tools helped to run tests automatically after developer built the codes. It not only made the test execution easier but also ensured every piece of code was well tested before promoting to production.
