Yuriy Malyi gave a presentation on the importance of transparency in team work and management. He discussed how lack of transparency can lead to problems in projects and teams. To promote transparency, he recommended tools like Jira, Confluence, and TestRail to provide visibility into tasks, work logs, test cases, and reporting. Regular reporting on features, bugs, automation progress and detailed status updates can help minimize time spent on status reports while maximizing transparency for effective oversight and control.
