Journey To API Testing Mastery | Sowmya Sridharamurthy

Testing APIs can often get highly technical, consuming valuable time as you navigate learning curves and resolve any testing issues that arise. In this webinar, Sowmya, a product quality leader and Engineering Manager-Quality will guide you through the intricacies of API testing and help you get started.

Best 10 Regression Testing Tools in 2023

Let’s say a developer introduced some changes and 2 days later the team observes that a feature does not work partially. This feature is not related to this developer’s change. However, since it was working fine a day later, all the changes may be reviewed by the manager. The conversation may start with the manager asking a question such as, “Did your changes regress?” To which the developer might agree after analysis or go into debugging mode.

Continuous Testing Strategy: How To Implement It For Devops?

Continuous testing is a key part of DevOps. It makes sure that software products are released with the best quality. In this blog post, we will talk about how to get started with a continuous testing strategy for DevOps projects. That way you can make sure your development process runs smoothly and efficiently.

Top 15 Desktop Automation Tools for Testing

In the realm of software development, testing plays a pivotal role in ensuring the quality and reliability of desktop applications. As desktop applications become more sophisticated and complex, manual testing alone is no longer sufficient to meet the demands of efficiency and accuracy. This is where desktop automation tools for testing come into play.

Levels of Testing: A Complete Approach to Quality Assurance

In the software biz, we must test a product like absurd before putting it out to the world. There are different levels of testing, from functional to acceptance, and each one checks specific things to make sure everything’s up to par. Check out this blog to learn more about why each level matters.

DevOps life cycle | Phases Explained with Example

The DevOps life cycle is a comprehensive approach that combines development and operations practices to streamline and optimize the software delivery process. It encompasses various phases, including planning, coding, testing, deployment, monitoring, and feedback. By integrating these traditionally separate disciplines, DevOps promotes collaboration, agility, and continuous improvement, allowing organizations to deliver high-quality software more efficiently and effectively.

Maintainability Testing | What, How to Measure & Best Practices

All software undergoes continuous modifications. Sometimes developers do so to fulfill clients’ requests, and other times it is to upgrade the functionality or security features. But whatever the case, any changes made to the software require continuous monitoring and maintenance. Testing software for how maintainable it is, is called Maintainability testing. Let’s dive deeper into the subject in this blog. We will also talk about automated testing with maintainability testing.

What is Peer Review in Software Testing?

Reviewing your work is critical in the software development life cycle (SDLC). It reduces the instances of human errors and allows for better-quality code. Similarly, peer review in important, that involves peers checking each other’s work. But why is it essential, and how much software quality does it improve? Let’s see.

Test Closure Report: Everything You Need To Know

As a software project ends, every tester must check the effectiveness of the testing process to gain insights into the areas of improvement. So, QAs create a Test Closure Report. It includes all the test data, such as test cases, test plans, test suites, and other testing-related information for future reference. With this report, the test insights are recovered, making reviewing the testing process easier and identifying improvement areas in future projects.

What is Risk Based Testing? Top Benefits & Approaches

Nowadays, ‘Quality’ is becoming a crucial factor in software delivery, where continuous improvements are happening to improve the quality in order to keep the customers happy. However, how often have we seen risk based testing as part of a testing strategy or something that teams religiously do every sprint, during regression testing or any exploratory testing?

Xpath Vs CSS Selector: Key Differences

Modern web automation is changing, and new automation tools are emerging into the market. New tools provide a bundle of features for End-to-End Testing, API Testing, and Component testing. Interestingly some of the tools even started utilizing Artificial intelligence and codeless automation. Most of the automation shares one important thing which is the locator.

Test Efficiency: How It Differs From Test Effectiveness?

Two crucial concepts in software testing are test effectiveness and test efficiency. While both terms are often used interchangeably, they have distinct meanings and contribute differently to the overall testing process. Understanding the difference between test efficiency and test effectiveness is key to optimizing software quality. In this article, we will talk about test efficiency and test effectiveness, their importance, and how they are calculated. Let’s dive in.

6 Key Phases of Testing in Software Testing Lifecycle

Did you know software errors cost the US economy an estimated $1.7 trillion annually? Or that software defects are responsible for 25% of total system failures? These statistics highlight the importance of software testing. The software testing life cycle encompasses activities executed during the testing phase. By following these six key testing phases, you can ensure that the final product is free from errors, glitches, and other issues that can hamper its performance.

Regression Test vs Unit Test: Key Differences

Regression testing is a software testing process that involves verifying the functionalities of an application or system after modifications have been made that could impact its performance. Unit testing is a software testing process that involves thoroughly testing individual functions or modules of a program using specialized tools. Unit testing helps testers to catch bugs early in the development process when they can be addressed more efficiently.

10 Best AI Testing Tools for Test Automation

Over the years, software developers have heavily relied on manual testing processes, which continue to play a vital role in the testing phase. However, it’s important to acknowledge that there are scenarios where test automation becomes important too. That is where test automation tools come in handy. In recent years, automated testing has emerged as a valuable addition to the field of software testing.
