Test Automation Architecture Our test automation framework leverages advanced technology and seamlessly integrates with other tools to enhance efficiency and reliability. By standardizing it across the group, we ensure consistency and minimize maintenance efforts. In MF Vietnam, we have developed over 15,000 test scripts for over 18 projects, delivering significant quality and cost benefits. 

Quality Dashboard Architecture The Grafana Quality Dashboard is a self-hosted reporting system that collects data from other tools via APIs, processes it through a backend server, and stores it in the database to visualize quality metrics, test execution status, and development insights for improved decision-making. 

Shift-left Testing Unit Test API Test E2E Test Test pyramid transformation E2E Test API Test Unit Test SDLC Requirement Design Development Testing Release Shift left testing Traditional testing We apply Shift-left Testing to detect defects early and improve product quality. Following the Testing Pyramid, we prioritize Unit and API tests while maintaining essential E2E/UI tests to ensure optimal test coverage and efficiency. 

Code Coverage Our branch coverage strategy emphasizes unit testing to achieve at least 75% to 80% coverage across all major repositories. The provided histogram illustrates our current coverage distribution, reflecting our commitment to improving code quality through rigorous testing practices. 

Defect Statistic Start Shift-left testing and QA process standardization After implementing Shift-left Testing and QA process standardization, internally detected bugs have increased significantly, while externally reported bugs have dropped notably, with only 4 critical incidents in the past 2 years. This reflects improved early defect detection, minimizing issues in later development stages.
