Realism objection End-to-end is best because users experience the whole journey. Your response Yes, keep a few journey tests for wiring confidence. Put repeatable rule checks lower so failures are faster and easier to diagnose. The trap is using realism to justify every check at the slowest layer. It validates the concern while preserving the pyramid's cost and reliability logic. Scenario versus layer Generated scenario value is not the same as generated automation layer. AI can propose what to test. The team decides where to test it. Rule of thumb What is the lowest reliable layer question? Ask: what is…
