What is the Web Testing Strategy for Technical Leaders course about?

Many organizations treat testing as a tactical afterthought, leading to brittle automation, poor test coverage, and escalating technical debt. As systems grow in complexity, these shortcomings slow delivery, increase risk, and erode stakeholder trust. The lack of strategic test architecture creates bottlenecks precisely when speed and reliability are most needed.
