In this post we are going to look at performance test coverage. What functionality to performance test can range from very little to most of the application under test and both are valid under the right circumstances.

In this age of data dominance, data democratization becomes a lifeline for any organization trying to harness the most out of its information-based assets. Data democratization ensures access to data for all employees across varying organizational departments without technological barriers, which enables data-based business decisions to be made. Empowering the team members with the approach will open doors for improved collaboration and innovation.

Software testing can feel like you're walking a tightrope—striving to uphold impeccable quality standards while the clock ticks towards your next release. It’s a daunting challenge to make sure every test is planned and executed with speed, all while hoping there are no blind spots in your process. Enter test management. It’s a great way to ensure your tests remain organized, efficient, and consistent. And of course, so you can report on this hard work to leadership.

Using BigQuery object tables, we analyze unstructured Cloud Storage data with generative AI models and join the results with BigQuery structured data.

Kernighan & Pike, The Practice of Programming, 1999 Despite constantly changing technologies and the needs of customers, some wisdom seems eternal. Programmers need to test their code. But thorough testing takes time. When we do it well, everything works, and a massive testing effort feels like a waste. However, when we do it badly, our code is often broken, and we wish that we had done better testing. I have some good news for you.

For a software engineer, even the basic use of a debugger can save a lot of pain: adding breakpoints (places in the code the program will stop at and expose the current context) is very easy, and navigating from one breakpoint to another isn't difficult either. And with just that, you can say goodbye to a program's many puts and runs. Just add one or more breakpoints and run your program.

At the end of every testing project, a test report is usually created to summarize the results. This report provides insights into how the test project was executed if it aligned with the initial plan, and what areas need further optimization. In this article, we’ll explore in-depth what needs to be included in a test report, as well as the key metrics that QA teams need to look at if they want to gauge their testing efficiency.

Any (functioning) system is built upon an infrastructure. This infrastructure supports all of the functions and activities of the system. Testing is no exception. With a good test infrastructure, QA teams can speed up their testing efforts and drastically improve efficiency. In this article, we will explore the concept of test infrastructure, and how you can effectively build one.

Generative AI (GenAI) has taken the world by storm, promising to revolutionize industries and transform the way businesses operate. From generating creative content to automating complex tasks, the potential applications of GenAI are vast and exciting. However, implementing GenAI in an enterprise setting comes with its own set of challenges. At Cloudera, we understand the complexities of enterprise GenAI adoption.
