Testing

What Is Functional Testing?

Functional testing is a type of software testing that validates web or mobile applications against pre-determined specifications and requirements. The goal is to ensure that the software performs as expected by both developers and end-users. Functional testers aim to emulate real-world scenarios and user pathways, testing not only for functionality but also for non-functionality, such as how the app behaves in airplane mode or when a video buffers.

Latest Innovations In The "Boring" Regression Testing Space

In today's dynamic software landscape, teams struggle with where to invest their time: new feature testing or regression testing. Obviously, ensuring the reliability and stability of applications is paramount so that the end-user experience is not impacted. However, teams must also ensure that new features and capabilities that will propel the company's business to the next level are also properly tested and ready to be put in the hands of the end users.

GitTogether | Open Source Dev Containers with DevPod | Hrittik Roy

Many developers are excited about Dev Containers, but until now, people needed to use a managed service like Codespaces or Gitpod to experience that Dev Container magic. DevPod is a new open-source tool that allows users to launch Dev Containers with any infrastructure they have available. DevPod introduces a way to define a development environment that can then be run on any cloud infrastructure or even on a localhost machine using Docker or Kubernetes locally or on the cloud. This talk is all about how you can use DevPod locally or on cloud to run your developer workloads easily.

It ensures the timely delivery of high-quality software by automating repetitive and time-consuming testing tasks. However, the journey to effective test automation comes with challenges such as selecting the right tools, managing complex test cases, and enabling seamless integration of testing into the software development lifecycle.

Basel 3.1: Strengthening Global Financial Framework

The financial crisis of 2008 exposed vulnerabilities in the global banking system. In response, the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (BCBS) introduced the Basel III reforms, a set of regulations designed to strengthen banks’ capital adequacy and risk management practices. Basel 3.1, the latest iteration of these reforms, is set to be implemented in major jurisdictions like the EU and UK in 2025.

Decoding the Dynamics of Software Development Team Structure

In the realm of software development, success isn't merely about the lines of code; it's about the people behind them and how they collaborate. The structure of a software development team lays the foundation for efficient communication, effective problem-solving, and ultimately, the delivery of high-quality products. In this exploration, we delve into the intricate layers of software development team structures, uncovering the roles, methodologies, and strategies that drive innovation and productivity.
