How to Write a Bug Report That Your Engineers Will Love

Finding a bug is one thing, but documenting it is just as important, if not more so. That’s why we want to share how to write the ideal bug report. We’ll also share a list of the seven items in the Testlio bug report template. Bug reporting demonstrates a development issue and gives your developers a place to start fixing it.

How to Maintain App Quality at Scale

In February 2024, approximately 89,000 mobile apps were released via the Apple App and Google Play stores—37,000 and 52,000, respectively. That’s about 3,100 mobile apps per day, and that’s not even counting the apps released via other platforms. App consumers know they have options, and if your app isn’t cutting it for them, they can simply delete it and find a better one—which means you can’t afford to scrimp on app quality assurance.

Part I: Yes, Software Quality Strategy is a Requirement For Comprehensive QA

We all understand that software quality is a critical aspect of modern software development. There are countless metrics that can be tracked, business value that can be attributed to the quality of software, and cautionary tales in news cycles driven by critical issues that make their way to production. Yet, in many cases, organizations still fail to define and implement a quality strategy.

5 E-Commerce Payment Gateway Testing Use Cases

Without payment gateway testing, you risk cart abandonment, over or underpayments, penalties, and increased customer support costs. These risks occur when web or mobile app payment transactions run into issues. To avoid these issues, online retailers should create test cases, conduct periodic checks, and update their processes to ensure the system’s integrity. From functional testing to usability testing, there are many ways to test payment processing.

Trip Report: On The Road to Signal-Driven Testing

Just shy of a year ago and coinciding with the Atlassian Team ‘23 conference, Testlio unveiled an initiative to help product teams adopt signal-driven testing as a core pillar of the future of software quality engineering. A lot of exciting things have happened and continue to happen since that announcement, which collectively serves as validation of the opportunity for product teams to dramatically improve test coverage efficiency through signal-driven testing.

Software Testing Optimization: Avoiding the Pitfalls of Over-Testing and Under-Testing

Thorough software testing aims to identify and resolve potential issues before they impact users, ensuring a high-quality user experience. However, optimal testing levels can be hard to achieve for most quality assurance (QA) teams. An optimal testing level requires balancing testing thoroughness, coverage, and speed with resource allocation.

Defining QA Success: How to Go Beyond Bug Counting to Measure Impact

Measuring the success of quality assurance (QA) and software testing can be a complex task that requires going beyond surface metrics. It’s a nuanced process that needs an in-depth understanding of how every decision and action your team takes translates into tangible benefits for the product, the team, and, ultimately, the end-users. However, with so many data points available, identifying which metrics truly matter can feel like finding a needle in a haystack.

How to Write Functional Test Cases for Thorough Coverage

Ready to write functional test cases that testers can action on and that, combined, thoroughly cover the product? Let’s first define functional software testing. Broadly, functional software testing is defined as a type of black-box testing method that focuses on the functionality of a software product. Functional testing is designed to ensure a web or mobile software application meets its requirements and specifications by executing test cases from the user’s perspective.

Blockchain Testing: Why You Should Test Your Cryptocurrency Transactions

Blockchain technology is transforming the way financial transactions are conducted, and it’s playing a crucial role in reducing the gap in financial inclusion. Regulatory challenges, economic underdevelopment, socioeconomic backgrounds, and poor infrastructure have made fundamental and traditional banking services, such as simple bank accounts, inaccessible for as many as 1.7 billion users.
