Functional Testing: An In-Depth Overview

To define it simply, we can say- Functional testing ensures every part of an application does exactly what it’s supposed to do. It’s about verifying that the software’s functions and features behave as expected from an end-user’s perspective. And unlike other types of testing, such as performance or load testing, functional testing focuses on the functionality itself rather than factors like speed or stability under load.

New Challenges in Software Quality Brought by GenAI and LLMs | Federico Toledo | #Testflix2024

In this compelling talk, Federico delves into the new challenges in software quality brought by the rise of Generative AI (GenAI) and Large Language Models (LLMs). As these advanced technologies become more integrated into applications, ensuring their quality presents unique hurdles. He explores the specific quality concerns associated with using LLMs, GenAI, and Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG), and discuss innovative testing approaches tailored to these systems. This session is designed to help you navigate these complexities, ensuring your applications not only meet but exceed quality standards.

Combining Automation Frameworks with Design Patterns | Raneesh Chaudhary | #Testflix2024

In this insightful session, Raneesh Chaudhary dives into the world of automation frameworks and how design patterns can empower them to handle more complex, "heavier" lifting. With design patterns as a foundation, scaling becomes a whole lot easier, setting your automation frameworks up for high-impact, long-term success. Raneesh walks us through the practical benefits of incorporating design patterns like the Facade, Factory, and Singleton, each bringing unique strengths to the table—from simplifying complex systems to managing resources efficiently.

Turbocharging Atlas: How we reduced server initialization time to less than 2 minutes

ThoughtSpot prioritizes the high availability and minimal downtime of our systems to ensure a seamless user experience. In the realm of modern analytics platforms, where rapid and efficient processing of large datasets is essential, swift metadata access and management are critical for optimal system performance. Any delays in metadata retrieval can negatively impact user experience, resulting in decreased productivity and satisfaction.

What is Test Observability in Software Testing?

In software testing, it is our job to understand how applications behave in their real-world environment. With observability, teams gain a better view: not just detecting issues but understanding why they’re occurring in the first place. In testing observability, unlike traditional monitoring, which typically signals when things go wrong, observability focuses on why and where it happened so the team can optimize system health.

The Rise of Scriptless Test Automation: A No-Code Revolution

In the fast-moving world of software development, traditional testing methods are frequently inadequate since quality and agility are paramount. Although necessary, manual testing services can be labor-intensive and prone to human error. Organizations are using test automation services more often to assure perfect user experiences and speed product delivery.

Bitrise Release Management introduces CI Agnostic distribution for testing and releasing to stores

We understand how complex app distribution can be, especially when juggling multiple tools for mobile app testing and store releases. This is what prompted us to build Release Management back in 2022. Originally tightly coupled to Bitrise CI, we're excited to announce that Release Management can now be used with any CI tool. This means all mobile teams can use Release Management, and we're offering it with a generous free tier, regardless of their CI tool.
