Open source software has been the origin of a huge range of widely-used products from Linux to WordPress but what is it exactly, and what advantages does it offer for software developers?

Regression testing involves repeatedly evaluating an upgraded web app, software program, or system's existing functionalities as we went through Regression Testing Challenges and Best Practices in a previous post.

The tokens are randomly assigned, so it’s near impossible to reverse-engineer or compromise a token.

In the first blog of this series, I used the metaphor of a bridge connecting two towns to illustrate the importance of establishing purposeful connections between your shift left and shift right testing initiatives. Modern product organizations that fail to engineer a bridge to link the two “towns” (shift left and shift right) will, at a minimum, suboptimally utilize precious human and machine testing resources.

Nowadays, automation has become a vital part of every business, whether matter small or big and in what niche industry they are.
