Using Analytics to Triage Test Failures

Struggling to prioritize which tests to fix or discard? @Titus Fortner shares how analytics can help you sort through failures and make impactful decisions. Not all failing tests are created equal—some need fixing, while others are better off gone. Here’s how to use analytics for smarter test management: Learn how to streamline your test suite with the right analytical tools in this episode of Test Case Scenario.

No-Code, No Problem: AI-Powered Automation for Manual Testers

“Quality is more important than quantity. One home run is much better than two doubles.” – Steve Jobs In the world of software testing, this quote couldn’t be more relevant. If you’re a manual tester, you know the pressure to deliver high-quality results, often within tight deadlines and limited resources. Yet, with today’s fast-paced software development cycles, meeting these demands through manual testing alone is increasingly challenging.

A Developer's Guide to Continuous Performance Testing

Today’s fast-paced development environments require new approaches to testing. Enter continuous performance testing. Unlike traditional performance testing, automated continuous performance testing is part of every build, monitoring the application continuously under increased load. With continuous performance tests, organizations with lots of users can expect to improve the customer experience, prevent major outages, and find and resolve issues faster.

Cut Unnecessary Tests

Is your test suite running as efficiently as it could? @Titus Fortner explains why the number of tests isn't always the problem—it's the value they bring. Deleting tests that constantly fail and don’t provide useful data can significantly reduce your total execution time. Here's what to consider when refining your test suite: Ready to make your test suite more efficient? Watch this episode of Test Case Scenario to learn more.

Load testing tools: comparison of Loadero and LoadNinja

"Load, load testing, load test this, load test that, Loadero, LoadNinja, load, load, load... ugh, what should I choose?!'' - we can only imagine what the experience of choosing a load testing tool is like. The Loadero team has decided to ease the burden of choosing between testing tools by writing a comparison review about Loadero and LoadNinja. By the way, if you’re considering testRTC as an option too, we have published a similar article before, where we compared Loadero and testRTC.

Build and Deploy Kubernetes Applications with Skaffold

Skaffold is a command line tool that facilitates continuous development by streamlining the workflow for building, pushing, and deploying Kubernetes applications. Skaffold handles the complexities of Kubernetes deployments, allowing developers to focus on local application iteration while managing deployments efficiently. Get started with our tutorial.

S1.E27: Combining performance testing and exploratory testing with Leandro Melendez

The team is thrilled to welcome back Leandro Melendez, aka Señor Performo, for his second appearance on the show! Last time, it was all about performance testing, but now, Leandro is here to explore the powerful combination of performance testing AND exploratory testing. With nearly 20 years of IT experience and a decade dedicated to performance testing using top-tier tools like Roller, NeoLoad, and more, Leandro shares his insights on.

Docker Containers: Enabling Ssl For Secure Databases

Security is critical for any application, especially when dealing with sensitive data like financial records or user information. Databases such as MongoDB and PostgreSQL communicate over the network, making them vulnerable to interception. SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) encrypts the communication between the client and the database server to prevent data exposure. This encryption ensures that: 1. Data Integrity: No third party can modify the data in transit. 2.
