Before committing to any framework, run a proof of concept against your actual CI/CD pipeline, not a demo environment. Choosing a test automation framework used to feel like picking a car: there were a few obvious options, most people picked the most popular one, and you lived with the consequences. In 2026, the landscape looks more like a fleet decision.
