In this video, Titus Fortner, senior developer advocate, explains the differences between flaky tests and brittle tests. This is followed by a discussion of the three things to manage to minimize flakiness: ensuring known states, maintaining independent data and creating a good synchronization strategy.

It was never just about code. Pamela Oliveira is a firm believer that societal norms can be transformed by the power of open source technology. Experts need to see this and take ownership despite a rapidly changing industry. In this episode of Test Case Scenario, Jason and Pamela dissect the opportunities and difficulties that technical minds have in attempting to solve social issues with open source.

Standards of digital security are getting higher. Organizations have to be proactive in setting safeguards that will protect against evolving threats, and have competent technical minds at the helm. Pamela Oliveira shares her insights on how this act is reshaping responsibility and why tech minds need to be looking ahead at their product life to ensure the needed security measures are in place.

Open-source software is more than just code—it's a powerful tool for societal change.

High-performing teams don’t have large test suites. They have small, focused test suites. They make the most of their limited resources. Ideally, you would have extensive test suites for maximum coverage. But most teams don’t have the resources needed to maintain that level of tests and evaluate their results properly. @Titus Fortner, Senior Developer Advocate at @Sauce Labs, encourages testers to advocate for themselves and their teams. He says it’s important to call out when the testing managers' requests are unsustainable and instead focus their efforts on what’s most important.

Should you design tests in the same language as the application you’re testing, or should you use the language you’re best at? @Hanson Ho recommends using the language that’s most popular in the application’s platform. This way, you’ll have more help available from the community. If you want more insights like this one, check out Test Case Scenario.
