The latest News and Information on Software Testing and related technologies.
Midnight, December 31, 1999, marked the beginning of a millennium where aircrafts would not fall out of the sky and bank ATMs would not spew millions of dollars from their cash withdrawal slots. Preemptive software testing and remediation on a global scale provided the automated world with some assurance that the machines would continue to run as they had for decades.
Software testing is the process of checking the quality of a product before launching. It measures the software's completeness to the single functional (or non-functional) attributes and whether it has fulfilled the business logic or shown us the missing gaps in requirements that need immediate tackles. Software testing is an integral part of the software development life cycle. Over time, software testing activities have evolved to meet the ever-increasing complexity of applications.
Every software engineer dreams of the day when they can simply type English-language sentences into a development platform and out pops a new, production-ready app. The app will be free of bugs because the natural language processing (NLP) functionality of the platform will have automatically created the test cases, run the tests, and self-corrected for changes to the app features. AI researchers in software testing are heavily invested in making testing as autonomous and natural as possible.
