How to Perform Payment Gateway Testing for E-commerce Success

Imagine a customer who is about to buy some more things, but their cart is already full of products, so they go to checkout. Every process is done but when it comes to payment, it fails! After that, the customer got frustrated and left the cart. By this example, you may understand that every customer needs a smooth payment experience. A small glitch can cost businesses customers and revenue. Payment gateways connect buyers and sellers to make secure payments and transactions.

Fuzz Testing REST APIs in Node.js

It’s not enough to just test our code's happy path (in other words, the error-free path we hope our users will take). To be really confident our code can’t be abused, either accidentally or on purpose, we must actively attack it to try and find ways of breaking it. If we don’t do this, someone else will, and they probably won’t be as friendly.

Mastering Mocking: A Complete Guide To Mocks And Other Test Doubles

Imagine building a system where you want to validate if the logic implemented would fit in when the entire system is built, but for that, you would have to build the entire architecture (well, a lot of resources are spent). Now imagine a way where you can simulate the versions of real objects or components. This is where Data Mock comes into play!

Is AI Living Up to the Hype? A Retrospective Look from Industry Experts

AI has made waves in testing, but how much has really changed? In this episode of Test Case Scenario, Jason Baum, Evelyn Coleman, and Marcus Merrell take a critical look at the progress of AI in software testing. They discuss the real capabilities of tools like ChatGPT and Copilot, what’s improved over time, and what still leaves testers frustrated. You’ll also hear insights into how AI tools are shaping software development workflows, why cost and sustainability are becoming bigger concerns, and what testers can do to separate AI hype from practical solutions.

Intro to proxymock, a free traffic-based service mocking tool within VS Code.

Speedscale's proxymock is a free VS Code plugin that passively listens to transactions, so developers can replay past responses or inbound transactions like a time machine. Past transactions can serve as non-rate-limited service mocks, editable databases, or even regression/load/chaos tests. Building service mocks to serve as service virtualization/mocks can be time consuming and manual. Maintaining complex, shared environments for engineering incurs expensive cloud costs and aren't often accurate.

Developer-First Observability: The Key to Accelerating Digital Transformation

Digital transformation is no longer optional—it’s essential for staying competitive, driving value, and meeting evolving customer expectations. As Brian Solis puts it, “Digital transformation is to change the way you compete, how you create value, and how you can use digital tools and technology to be relevant as the world continues to evolve.” Organizations worldwide are taking this to heart, with spending on digital transformation expected to hit $3.9 trillion by 2027.

From zero to automation: A hands-on guide to kickstart your journey

Test automation can feel overwhelming for beginners. Many give up early, believing they need advanced coding skills, or setting unrealistic goals like automating everything at once. Even new Katalon users sometimes dive into advanced features too quickly and hit roadblocks. This webinar is designed to simplify your journey and help you start strong. Here is what you'll gain from this session.

Ultimate Guide to Creating a JSON Mock API for Testing

Using a JSON mock allows you to avoid using fake data or simulating interactions, resulting in better final output and stronger data flows. Today, we’re going to dive into the process of creating a mock API using JSON data and tools like JSON-server. This guide will help you understand the basics of this process and get started quickly with your own mock API, allowing you to speed up development and testing without relying on a live backend.
