"I always loved web development... working with eSports teams, and making websites," Nathan recalls, thinking back to a childhood filled with online adventures in a tech-savvy family.
Ourside was not just another job for Sergio. Here, he navigated the intricate terrains of e-commerce platforms, radio stations, and even a biodiversity mapping system.

While AI and machine learning have been industry buzzwords for a while, they are now becoming fundamental to software testing. Machine learning algorithms are making it easier to sift through logs, identify patterns, and even predict where bugs are most likely to occur. As these technologies mature, the role of AI in software testing will undoubtedly expand.
Cristian laughs when we call him a software developer with a ‘testing mindset.’“Well, I see software testing as an integral part of development. We build; therefore, we test. Simple as that,” he says. This seems straightforward, but in his eyes, it's a philosophy that too many skip over.
Agile was once the high school cool kid that everyone either wanted to be or be with. Now, it’s the valedictorian leading the software development class. DevOps didn’t just join the party; it became the DJ, setting the tempo for developers and testers alike. The good ol' days of ‘Us vs. Them’ are so yesteryear.
BDD (Behavior Driven Development) strives to communicate clearly whenever any stakeholder's understanding of the desired system changes and attempts to have stakeholders in diverse positions interacting smoothly in parallel to maintain a near-constant grasp of the intended system behavior. If that understanding has been misaligned, it should be updated, or it should be synthesized with a new understanding of the intended system. This ensures that all stakeholders are pulling in the same direction.
We don't need to tell you that test automation will increase quality and save your software development company time and money spent on doing manual regression testing. It's known that many businesses begin at the user interface layer, which has the lowest ROI (return in investment) and perform automated tests that take a fraction of time by running regression tests with each build, rather than investing weeks near the end of the development cycle.
Regression Testig has its importance with regards to software maintenance. Its primary goal is to discover bugs across the system that were missed during first rollout of a new feature.
