Challenges of Shift Left Testing

Cultural Resistance

  • Teams may resist adopting new workflows and responsibilities.
  • Requires a mindset shift to view quality as a shared responsibility.

Upfront Investment

  • Implementing automation tools, CI/CD pipelines, and training requires initial time and cost.

Complexity

  • Early testing requires detailed requirements and design documents, which may not always be feasible in Agile projects.

Increased Workload for Developers

  • Developers may feel burdened by writing and maintaining tests in addition to coding.
