Automated testing was introduced at OLX to test their platforms across 8 countries. This presented several challenges including developing page object models to test different countries, ensuring test stability across environments, and building out the necessary infrastructure using technologies like Jenkins. Over time, the testing process matured to include more robust performance and reliability testing, testing multiple platforms, and integrating automated testing into their continuous integration and delivery processes.
