automation testing

The automation testing tag covers practical guidance for validating Microsoft Power Platform flows ahead of scheduled deployments. Current coverage focuses on the 2026 Wave 2 rollout, including the September 18–21 First Release window and the later October 16–19 deployment for North American Dataverse environments. It highlights why teams should test business-critical workflows in a representative sandbox, especially when automations connect broadly to Microsoft 365 or support important operations. The discussion also distinguishes organizations that should test immediately from those that can wait for release plans, giving IT teams a focused way to assess update risk and prepare their environments before mandatory regional changes.
