Robust software testing strategies are often an act of balance between extreme approaches, and approaching episodic vs. continuous testing is no different. While convention may be committed to a single strategy as an operational criterion for many organizations, consider a combined approach with the two.

Automation in QA uses software tools, frameworks, and techniques to automate testing tasks that QA testers might otherwise perform manually. The benefits of QA automation include faster testing, improved accuracy, greater test coverage, test script reusability, and long-term cost savings. Breakneck technological advancements and available DevOps workflows place increasing pressure on software development teams. As a result, they must deliver high-quality products faster than ever.

Testlio helps software engineering leaders overcome staffing, QA, QE, DevOps release, and quality challenges. As such, we spend our days testing devices, operating systems, hardware, software, apps and anything else you can imagine offered by Microsoft. That’s why we’re excited to share this handy reference guide with all the details for the Microsoft Build 2023 conference. Enjoy!

The goal of any mobile product is to create an app experience that’s innovative and new. But there are specific, necessary steps you must accomplish between crafting a clear vision for your app and creating a mobile application. As explained in our step-by-step mobile application testing process, it’s imperative to understand and resolve any requirement contradictions before finalizing the development phase.

As Software-as-a-Service model continues to adapt and evolve, so does SaaS Application Testing. Cloud computing allows providers to deliver software in an unfussy, unmessy way. As the saying goes, “nothing to download, nothing to install.” Granted, not every SaaS app is a web app, but most of them are, so that will be the focus here. Users simply enter their credit card deets, et voila: Access!

Mobile phones have evolved well beyond their once solely utilitarian value thanks to the plethora of applications available on the market. Today, there are over seven million apps available across the Google Android and Apple iOS platforms, so customers have a bevvy of app and game options to choose from. This highly-competitive supply and demand means you must ensure through mobile testing that the quality, usability, and security of your mobile app not only meets expectations but exceeds them.

OTT testing targets Over-The-Top (OTT) apps/streaming services that deliver media content exclusively via the Internet, bypassing traditional distribution channels. Some superstars? Netflix, Spotify, YouTube, Crunchyroll, Disney+, Showtime, HBO Max, and Amazon Prime Video. Due to the inherent complexity of their systems, streaming services are prone to experiencing software bugs that can disrupt the user experience.

Dev projects are complex, and making a rich and robust user experience relies heavily upon testing the results before final production. Testing can be divided into alpha vs. beta testing, but on a continuum of software testing needs, both are mutually critical to a modern DevOps strategy.

Today’s online businesses are wrestling with 20+ forms of payment, from traditional e-transfer to cryptocurrency to afterpay programs. Globalization adds different currencies, languages, and privacy concerns not present in real-world transactions. Payments testing utilizes different software tests against a set of predetermined parameters to check performance and where there’s a need to build out or improve capabilities.
