Automation testing tools are applications designed to verify function and/or non-functional requirements via automated test scripts. With the Agile and DevOps manifesto as the standard of software testing, setting a clear-cut automation testing tools evaluation strategy is key. Ultimately, this strategy will need to answer the questions of: Plus, there isn’t really a one-size-fits-all automation tool. It really boils down to your team’s specific needs.

Hello Katalians! Let’s go straight to the point, our latest release of Katalon Studio (8.2.0) is here, and it is awesome. For this release, we focused on speed and performance, and we are happy to announce that Studio now consumes less resources and gives more horsepower to your software delivery pipeline.

Testing is the backbone of the Agile software development methodology. The efficiency of the testing process directly impacts the quality of the deliverables and the goodwill of the organization. Buggy software can lead to poor user experience, delayed project timelines, diminished brand value, and revenue losses. A strong testing process consists of several well-planned activities with definite timelines and a set of clear expected outcomes.

Free open-source frameworks, libraries, and tools are the go-to solutions for automation testing. The main difference between these is knowing your preference between creating your building a brand new test automation framework using libraries, or working on a made-ready tool where testing is all you will have to care about. This article gives you a quick glance at the Top 10 Free and Open Source Testing Tools, Tools, Framework & Libraries.

Hello Katalians! We are back with a new release of Katalon TestOps. The November 2021 TestOps release focuses on enhancements to the report system, including test results and changelog reports and improvements around test run reports, to bring you better insights during the testing process.

Many businesses are burdened by an excessive amount of testing data. In that circumstance, it becomes impossible to distinguish between what is valuable, and what is noise. Therefore, having an effective reporting system in place in your company will ensure that all data is properly gathered and transformed into actionable insights. This article will walk you through the benefits of test reporting, and the top 7 test reporting tools that are currently available on the market.

In a perfect world, systems or automated tests would never fail – everything in software test reports would, literally, “go green.” And to add to the stress, failures don’t just always go our ways to fail for the same reason. There’s something different every time: bugs in the AUT, errors in the test case itself, or problems within the structure to cause timeouts during execution.

Every new software, method, or tool comes with certain growing pains and takes some time to get used to, although it’s almost always worth the adoption effort, a major part of which is testing. Test automation dramatically improves your processes, saves you time and resources, and ultimately leads to higher-quality software. But you can’t just jump into it and expect the automation to produce the results you want.

Software testing was initially a manual activity, however, due to the importance of speedy delivery, the transition to automation testing is predictable. Unfortunately, this shift can become an overwhelming voyage, especially for startups without a dedicated QA team. Suppose you are a manual tester (or developer) seeking an automation solution to speed up your project.

Although terms like “quality testing” may seem modern, software testing has been around since the advent of computing roughly 70 years ago. Harvard University scientist Grace Murray coined the terms “bugging” and “debugging” in 1947 when a literal “bug” — in this case, a moth — got stuck in the computer circuitry and interrupted a connection.
