You’re searching for “Selenium alternatives” because, while Selenium is a popular open-source test automation tool, it has certain limitations. Its slow execution speed can be problematic when dealing with large test suites or complex applications. The basic reporting and analytics features make finding problems and testing results difficult. It also lacks a mobile app testing focus — an essential feature for most organizations.

You open your Uber app and book a ride. Upon successful booking, a map pops up and shows you the whereabouts of your driver. While in the Uber, you open Zillow, a real estate app, to check out the apartment you want to rent that is located a few kilometers away from your location. The weather app, knowing your location, then sends you a notification to expect rain tomorrow. All of these are examples of the power of geolocation-based app features.

To execute locally, remote, or on-cloud? That is the question. But test execution is more than just “hitting Enter and seeing if it passed or not.” If you are doing it manually, test execution is about performing every single test step as outlined in the test case. For automation testing, test execution takes on another layer of complexity: In which environment should you run the test? Which test cases should you prioritize for execution?

Data migration refers to the process of moving data from one location to another. In the context of Oracle Cloud, data is transferred from on-premises systems or other cloud platforms to Oracle’s cloud infrastructure. Whether you’re migrating databases, applications, or entire systems, a complete approach is critical to a successful migration.

We did a sort of time travel on 20th April at QonfX. If you are not one of the 3000+ people who registered for this event, it is a unique software testing conference that keeps its focus on the Future of Testing. This year was the second edition of QonfX and received even more love than the last time. Feedback like the above filled our social feeds during and post QonfX. We cannot keep a count of the number of times attendees used the words ‘eye-opening’ for the talks given by the speakers.

Businesses increasingly rely on digital technologies to streamline operations, enhance efficiency, and stay competitive. However, with the advantages of digitization come inherent risks and challenges that can disrupt business operations. Recognizing the need for a comprehensive framework to address digital operational resilience, governments worldwide have introduced legislative measures to safeguard businesses and consumers.

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.

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.

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.

Network Telemetry, in simple terms, is like having a conversation with machines or systems located far away. It’s about collecting data from these distant sources to better understand how they’re performing. Think of it as a health check-up, but for machines or systems instead of people. This technology plays a crucial role in a variety of fields.
