7+ Best Visual Regression Testing Tools For Testers

Visual regression testing is a type of regression testing to ensure that no changes to the program adversely affect the Graphical User Interface (GUI). It is also referred to as visual validation testing. Instead of focusing on the functionality of the software, it aims to validate the software’s aesthetic side. Visual regression testing verifies that all visual elements are displayed properly across all available browsers, devices, and platforms.

Top 10 best end-to-end testing tools and frameworks

End to end testing (E2E testing) is a software testing technique that evaluates the functionality and performance of an application by testing it from start to finish, under real-world conditions. By simulating the live settings, E2E testing validates the behavior of not only the overall application but also its sub-systems from the end user's perspective.

Katalon Studio v8.6 With TestCloud Integration Now Available

Katalon Studio, the powerful test automation tool, is proud to announce the latest release which expands the ability to execute test suites and test suite collections directly on Katalon TestCloud to include a variety of mobile browsers. This new feature streamlines the creation and execution of automated tests and makes it easier for quality engineers of all skill levels to scale test execution.

The Importance of Visual Testing in Software Quality

Software Quality is no longer measured solely by functionality, performance, and security, but also by the overall user experience (UX). Poor user experiences are known to cause businesses to lose up to 35% of their revenue. Visual testing is a software testing technique that ensures applications or websites meet expected design and usability standards.

These virtualized services (aka service virtualization) can then be shared and used across teams without additional effort or maintenance.

What Is Automation Testing? Ultimate Guide & Best Practices

Automation testing is a software testing technique that utilizes specialized automation testing tools to automatically run a suite of test cases, delivering faster and more accurate results compared to manual testing methods. The process of running the same test suite repeatedly is time-consuming, so by leveraging a test automation tool, it is much faster to write the test suite, re-play it as required, reduce human intervention, and improve testing ROI.
