Why Application Usability Testing is Important for Business Success

Usability testing is a proven and frequently used method for evaluating products. Businesses of all kinds test everything from physical products to online services and applications. Why is usability research so popular? Research shows that approximately 75% of the credibility of digital products, such as an app or website, stems from their design. Unless you create something usable, appealing and functional, your business could face a substantial loss of profit and clients.

Are your Digital Services Accessible?

The modern workplace is more diverse than ever. Interested parties include a whole strata of incredibly talented people whose needs are regularly overlooked through poor design & development, and a failure to comply with disability and accessibility regulations around the world. This webinar will give you an introduction to the digital needs of those in need of accessibility support and the software tools available to help you test that you are meeting a significant portion of those needs.

JMeter: test as code solutions

The rise of the CI/CD methodologies and frameworks have shaped the daily work of application developers and testers. It allowed for the creation of the DevOps model.

Cucumber and Gherkin Language Best Practices

BDD or Behavior Driven Development is a development approach, but even if you don't utilize it, we think Cucumbe r (or a comparable tool) is useful since it "pushes" you to document your automated tests before implementing them. Cucumber is another traditional Selenium substitute, but there are some significant differences between the two systems. Cucumber is an automation tool for behavior-driven development(BDD), whereas Selenium is an automation tool for web apps.

Build a Bridge to Connect Shift Left & Shift Right

Two paradigms dominate the modern software testing landscape, shift left and shift right. These are fueled primarily by the need to accelerate software delivery to keep pace with a more dynamic and demanding digital engagement landscape. Shift left moves testing workloads earlier in the SDLC, leveraging test automation and practices like behavior-driven development (BDD) to foster developer accountability and more comprehensive testing.

Software Test Automation Frameworks | 6 Common Types

Software testing has evolved with time to detect and lessen errors in software and applications. The key software testing trends in 2022 suggest that 63% of QA teams consider test automation over manual testing for the agility required during the software development lifecycle (SDLC) while being cost-efficient.
