Chaos Testing: A Comprehensive Guide

Imagine you’re running a complex, distributed system—everything seems smooth until, without warning, a sudden failure brings the entire operation to a halt. What caused it? How can you prevent it from happening again? This is where chaos testing comes in. Chaos testing, or chaos engineering, is a proactive approach to discovering system weaknesses before they turn into catastrophic failures.

The Pesticide Paradox in Software Testing

There’s an interesting term in agriculture called the pesticide paradox. When a pesky insect infestation is threatening a farmer’s hard-earned harvest, he sprays the crop with pesticide, killing (most of) them in an instant. What a glorious win of man against nature! But there’s a catch: the tiny percentage of those insects which fortunately survive will develop a natural resistance to the pesticide.

Cognitive Biases in Software Testing: A Guide To Overcome

We are humans, and humans sometimes make mistakes. We make hundreds of decisions on a daily basis, and sometimes those decisions are not entirely based on rationality, but on cognitive biases. Anyone, including testers, can be subjected to the trappings of cognitive biases. Those biases are the result of years of evolutionary adaptation, and they allow us to make quick judgements (we all want to survive). However, they usually aren't the best judgements.

Assert in Python: A Very Cool Guide

Have you ever wanted to make sure your assumptions about your code are correct? That’s where assertions come in. In programming, an assertion is a simple way to verify that certain conditions hold true in your code, helping you catch potential errors early before they snowball into bigger problems. Imagine building a house—you wouldn’t start putting up walls without first making sure the foundation is solid, right? Assertions work the same way in your code.

Automated Software Testing: A Definitive Guide

Imagine a world where your software tests run themselves, freeing you from the tedious grind of repetitive tasks, and catching bugs long before they wreak havoc on your code. This is the magic of automated software testing. Deadlines to ship software are tighter than ever. Users expect flawless experiences, and relying solely on manual testing just doesn’t cut it anymore.
