Upgrades aren’t slowed by the number of transports — they’re slowed by the validation load behind them.
Most teams don’t have a testing problem.
They have a testing debt problem.

The same business processes get retested manually… again and again… by different people… with different results.
Continuous delivery only works when testing becomes an asset — something that grows in value.
Every manual validation today should be captured and turned into an automated test for tomorrow.
That’s how teams remove weeks from the upgrade timeline — not by working faster, but by reusing certainty.
