Software engineering is an exciting field that offers various roles and responsibilities to individuals. Some prominent roles are developer, quality assurance engineer, project manager, product manager, DevOps, and many more. Each of these roles also has sub-roles. For example, we have front-end, back-end, and full-stack developers in development. In testing, we have manual testing, automation, unit testing, and end-to-end testing.
In the article, we discussed three of the biggest challenges for mobile engineering teams when it comes to DevOps adoption.

Let’s start this post with the introduction of a hypothetical website that we are trying to build. This website is for those shortlisted in the Testsigma contest for their excellent test automation skills. Testsigma wishes to give them goodies as part of their goodwill gesture. We start this website by designing the landing page, information page, and the “forms.html” up page. This page is essential because it will gather information to send the goodies to all the winners.
In the current scenario, quality control is the luring force behind the success and popularity of software products, which has drastically amplified the requisite of taking efficient measures for quality. Thus, software testers are applying a solid drive to gauging their aims and efficacy, which is possible by using various metrics for testing and Key Performance Indicators (KPIs).
There are a number of things to consider when automating your mobile app tests, but first and foremost is to decide which tests should be and can be automated. This means understanding the business goals that are most important to your organization, as well as the risks you want to manage and mitigate.

With many tools available today, getting distracted and unable to decide how to start learning test automation is obvious. In this blog, we shall see how to streamline things so that you can learn automation testing at ease and without any Stress.
Like design and creation, software testing plays an integral role in the Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC). The testing phase during development ensures that quality software solutions are formulated and delivered. However, you need a sound test management system to ascertain high-end and smooth software testing. This article will give you a comprehensive insight into the software test management system.
