Modern Software Needs Modern Testing: The Test Toolchain, AI, and Risk-Based Thinking

Web and mobile apps are now organizations’ primary connection with their customers. Staying relevant and winning market share requires that firms can make constant changes to these apps. However, can organizations deploy many more small changes - often many per day - with confidence and with managed risk? We'll take a closer look at how a modern testing toolchain combines both production safety nets - from canaries, to feature flags, to error reporting - with pre-production intent validation tools for both developers and quality assurance/quality engineering. We can see how it is possible to measure and predict and limit the risk of a change by using AI.

How to Test and Delivery Secure Mobile Apps in the New Era of Finance

Today, over 90% of global internet users access the internet via a mobile device. This trend continues in the financial services industry - in a recent survey by Business Insider, nearly 80% of respondents say mobile is the primary way they access their bank account. To attract and retain customers, it’s therefore necessary for financial services organizations to deliver reliable, secure, and easy to use mobile apps.

Test Automation Code Quality

Automation Code Quality is critical to successful test automation - and it’s often put at risk before the first piece of code is even written. In this session, Chris Wallander discusses what makes good test automation and how to write test cases with automation ROI in mind. He then shares several code design principles, complete with code examples, to help you get the most value out of your automated testing.

Getting Started With Sauce Labs Low-Code Automated Web Testing

The software industry is transforming rapidly due to new changes brought on by artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML). AI & ML have democratized many aspects of the software testing process helping businesses, small and large, save time and money. As AI bridges the technical gap required in many jobs, more people will be able to add tremendous value to development teams — without the need of a computer science degree.

Growing a Culture of Quality - CTM Online

Long ago was a time where testing was purely seen as an activity by a siloed team who executed 1000’s of tests towards the end of a project.

But getting to that stage is not easy, for some reason, there has historically been a stigma attached to testing as a lesser activity that slows the release of a project down and changing this mindset is a huge obstacle to get over.
