As an engineering leader on Testlio’s platform team and former product leader at Skype and Microsoft, I’ve evaluated many new tools and concepts to elevate engineering practices and processes. To ensure better efficiency and team empowerment, I ask myself these three questions.
The top brands in the world strive to deliver more of what their customers want in the most convenient and delightful way possible. L’Oreal is relaunching 600 of their 3,000 different websites in just 3 years to impress their customers with a more personalized shopping experience, including AI-powered shopping assistants and color-matching. In this post, we introduce you to the tools that top retail brands are using to meet their digital experience objectives.
Apps are essentially technology products—products that aim to solve a problem for users. Design is a salient feature in all apps; it is how users understand, interact, and use a product. The less intuitive an app is in terms of design, the harder it is for its target audience to learn to use it. Poor design ultimately costs products their user-base. No one will return to an app that is hard to use, nor recommend an app that is difficult to understand and learn.
While humans are ever-adapting, the recent pandemic has forced a complete revamp of how we work and play. As in-person meetings and conventions remain sparse, networking in other ways has become a new normal. Mobile app developers are applying key lessons and trends of online networking and socializing to capitalize on increasing global demand for virtual connectivity.
The device landscape is as vast as it is complex. With at least 63,000 possible device profiles reported—a number growing at almost 20% per year—the scale of device fragmentation is staggering. New models, operating systems, browsers, screen resolutions, etc., make it extremely difficult for web and app developers to deliver a consistently flawless user experience across all combinations.
Your test management platform allows you to create test cases and assign them to testers. It makes it easy to analyze your results. But it doesn’t help you manage all of your testing resources in one place, and that’s a huge problem. In today’s world of online, remote work and the rise of the gig economy, distributed testing is not only widespread—but it also provides countless benefits to product and engineering teams (including faster releases).
Unless someone at your organization has built internal QA software, your in-house testers and your external testing resources are not testing under the same platform. We know, because no collective testing software exists, until now that is. We’ve enabled groundbreaking collective testing capabilities under our test management platform to keep your testing under one roof. But what does this really mean? And why should you—as a QA manager, dev team leader, or DevOps manager—care?
There are numerous test metrics or criteria to measure the success of mobile applications. But in a world of agile software testing, it’s more than just discovered defects. What other results matter in software quality and for end-users? Which QA metrics help validate the efficacy of your efforts? When it comes to QA metrics, there is no one size fits all. Just like in software development, you’ll want to align your benchmarks against your goals for the project.
