Testing

Defining your test strategy

Accelerating your software delivery cycle is impossible unless you also accelerate and enhance your approach to software testing. In another article we described the eight steps of the journey to transform your organization into a modern testing organization. This article will focus on defining your test strategy. You’ll learn about the importance of adopting agile practices.

What Are APIs and How Do They Work?

APIs are a key aspect of our digital world and allow us to engage in digital experiences on our phones and computers every day. Every time you use an app such as Facebook or Instagram, check the weather or send an instant message, you’re using an API. So what are APIs? API stands for Application Programming Interface, which enables communication between two applications.

Enterprises Need to Deploy, Monitor, and Govern ML Models to Solve Real-World Use Cases

Machine Learning (ML) and Artificial intelligence (AI) are at the center of the hyper-competitive era in which change occurs with new technologies in the span of a single blink of an eye. Modern innovations like AI, predictive analytics, ML, and other digital disruptors are changing how businesses operate and how customers interact with brands in every sector of the economy. Moments of existential transition are becoming common for organizations.

How to leverage low code test automation to scale

Dev teams are stacked against an incredibly high bar of software quality, consistent end-UX, and tight release windows. While manual testing remains a cornerstone of quality, leveraging test automation enables enterprises to scale testing and meet demands for coverage and capacity. Low-code test automation provides a great place to start; it circumvents current challenges in talent pools, increases coverage, and iterates quickly.

Stop Using TCP Health Checks for Kubernetes Applications

As developers, one of the most important things we can consider when designing and building applications is the ability to know if our application is running in an ideal operating condition, or said another way: the ability to know whether or not your application is healthy. This is particularly important when deploying your application to Kubernetes. Kubernetes has the concept of container probes that, when used, can help ensure the health and availability of your application.

Channeling the Power of Automation in Medical Device Testing

According to Cynerio’s 2022 State of Healthcare IoT Device Security Report, 53% of internet-connected medical devices analyzed had a known vulnerability, while one-third of bedside devices had a critical risk. (Cynerio observed over 10 million medical devices at over 300 hospitals and medical facilities across the world). As per the findings, more than half of health enterprise-connected medical devices pose security risks due to critical flaws that could jeopardize patient care.

Transform People and Practices to Become a World-Class Digital Engineering Organization

How to win the digital engineering game? According to Gartner, organizations that are winning this game are the ones that are using a wider range of products, architectural techniques, and services than the others. Software engineering leaders must motivate their teams, nurture talent, and change their cultures and methods of delivery to win the game. Read Cigniti’s blog to know more about how to transform people and practices to become a world-class digital engineering organization.

IDC Selects SmartBear as a Leader in Worldwide Automated Software Quality

We expect software to work. Slow mobile apps and buggy website functionality are unacceptable, given that two-thirds of us do our banking from a mobile app and a quarter of the workforce logs in from their home office. Low-quality, poorly designed software can undermine operational efficiency, create security vulnerabilities, and contribute to customer attrition.
