Can you believe it’s almost 2019? We can’t either, but we’re excited it’ll be another big year for developers. According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, due to increased demand for software solutions, developer employment is forecasted to increase 24% from 2016 to 2026 (Qlik’s contributing with these worldwide openings).

Being the only QA person in my team gave me hard times, but also a lot of freedom in my actions, decisions, strategies and, most significantly, allowed me to try out new approaches.
Let’s get technical! Read this if you are a QA noob But before you start: If you don’t know what Katalon Studio is, read this first, and get to know why I picked it to build web automation. To be mentioned, before looking at the studio, Katalon project offers an IDE tool for Chrome, called Katalon Recorder.

It’s said that we should learn something new every day and in the past 24 hrs I’ve done very well, I’ve learnt 4 new facts. So, which one of these “facts” do you think is not data driven?
In the past blogs, we have learned how to install Talend Open Studio, how to build a basic job loading data into Snowflake, and how to use a tMap component to build more complex jobs. In this blog, we will enable you with some helpful debugging techniques and provide additional resources that you can leverage as you continue to learn more about Talend Open Studio.
