Sometimes the smallest efforts go a long way toward starting a revolution. And when such revolutions trigger positive changes in a massive organization like ING Bank, with over 72,000 employees in 35 countries, it reinforces the belief that small efforts can have a big impact in the long run. From getting the basics right in quality assurance (QA) processes to doing the right kind of automation, this talk will present four incredibly intriguing chapters within ING Bank that are sure to inspire attendees.

From 96 Hours to 90 Minutes – This is a chapter where high-quality automated tests helped ensure that a flagship project went live ahead of schedule.

Green IT, Real Impact – Attendees will learn how choosing the right tool - hello, Playwright! - helped the team meet sustainability goals while reducing resource utilization and costs. Two behind-the-scenes stories show that test automation and eco-consciousness go hand in hand.

One ING, One Strategy – The third chapter is a story of consolidation and optimization. It narrates the massive success of unifying automated test tooling and techniques across all ING entities, which brought a tremendous level of streamlining, quality gating, and collaboration, in addition to massive cost benefits.
Finally, to end the talk, Ashish Ghosh will share a personal journey - from a shaky, naive test engineer to becoming the Engineering Lead of the Global Testing Practice. He will take attendees through the ups and downs of his test automation adventures over the last decade. Though this story could be a talk on its own, Ashish will highlight some of the key insights that helped him make an impact at such a massive scale in an organization this big.

This is not just a talk about tools and techniques. It is about people, purpose, and the ripple effect of doing things right. If attendees have ever wondered whether their automation efforts can truly make a difference, this session is just for them.
