By Guilherme CarreiroPodcast: Requirements Analysis for Architects: A Conversation with Sonya Natanzon
Michael Stiefel spoke to Sonya Natanzon, about the intersection of technical and social aspects of software architecture.

This article shows how, to build a future of reliable, AI-driven test automation, we must stop scaling DOM-centric abstractions and build a new testing paradigm grounded in perception and intent.
