Why do my apps keep crashing? 6 causes and how to fix them

Sep 8, 2026 By Aleix Ventayol In Bugfender
An app crash is one of the fastest ways to drain both users and rankings. Many users will uninstall an app after just one crash, and both the App Store and Google Play will penalize crash-prone or unstable apps. At Bugfender, we’ve been investigating app crashes since 2014. In this post we’re going to share all our key learnings, so you can: You’ll come away with a reliable, repeatable way to anticipate app crashes – wherever they happen. This post is generally platform-agnostic.

Testing at AI speed: We built a drift detection capability, then used it on ourselves

Sep 8, 2026 By Ewa Ostrowska In SmartBear
Drift detection stays narrow on purpose. It checks contract conformance – structure, status codes, schema – and deliberately leaves workflows and business logic to functional and end-to-end tests. That’s what makes it a fast add to our pipeline to prevent API drift. That narrow scope keeps it cheap to run. Fast execution, low flakiness, low maintenance cost – the kind of checks that make you more confident shipping. Catching drift early is the whole point.

Introducing coverage gap detection: How the Zephyr Agent for Rovo ends duplicate test cases

Sep 8, 2026 By Alisha Siddhartha In SmartBear
AI has changed how fast testing teams can move, yet sorting through duplicate test cases still trips teams up. Ask the SmartBear Zephyr Agent for Rovo to generate test cases for a requirement, and coverage that used to take an afternoon comes back in a single conversation. That speed is a genuine win for teams building faster than ever, but as AI generates more test coverage, how do you make sure all of it stays worth keeping?

Migrating Your BlazeMeter Tests With an AI Agent

Sep 7, 2026 By Gerald Pereira In OctoPerf
Our BlazeMeter to OctoPerf Maven plugin is archived. What replaces it is not another tool to install: OctoPerf 17 ships a BlazeMeter migration playbook for AI agents. Real prompts, real output, run against a real BlazeMeter account. The plugin worked: one mvn command copied your workspaces, projects and JMeter scripts into OctoPerf. But a Maven command cannot ask you a question, so it never said which tests were worth moving, never brought your load profiles, and never replayed what it imported.

PropTech SaaS Development: The Capabilities That Make Real Estate Platforms Scale

Sep 7, 2026 By ORIL Team In ORIL
A scalable PropTech SaaS platform is built in layers: product workflows, multi-tenancy, integrations, analytics, security, and eventually AI. The right sequence depends on the product, but skipping the architectural foundations creates expensive constraints later. That sequencing is an architecture decision as much as a product one.
