QA automation is undergoing a period of anticipation, with generative AI and advanced technologies poised to transform testing processes. With a promise of heightened efficiency and broader test coverage in digital solutions, QA automation services have become necessary for organizations across industries. Therefore, CTOs and other executives are now discussing strategies to build in-house QA automation teams.

Automation has unleashed unprecedented productivity and profits for organizations. By automating formerly manual tasks, businesses see efficiency gains, reduced human error, cost savings, and improved innovation. Automation frees employees for creative work and work that requires human intervention. To facilitate this, many organizations have stitched together a wide range of automation tools. This includes robotic process automation (RPA), generative AI, predictive AI, and business process management.

Welcome back to our exploration of Node.js' built-in test runner! In the previous article, we laid the groundwork for writing and running basic tests in your projects by exploring a few simple examples. In this installment, we'll dive into practical examples of how to use mocking, code coverage analysis, test hooks, and strategies for testing HTTP servers. These tools will help you write more comprehensive and reliable tests, ultimately leading to more robust Node.js applications. Let's get started!

We released two big updates to our Sketches feature: a much improved UI and a dedicated link in the navigation bar. You can now visually convey your ideas, designs, and plans effortlessly.

Bitbucket is a robust tool for source code management and continuous integration/continuous deployment (CI/CD). It offers flexibility in setting up pipelines, but there are limitations, particularly around root privileges and mounting volumes. This blog explores these limitations and provides detailed solutions using Docker-in-Docker (DinD) and Linux shell scripts.

APIs (Application Programming Interfaces) are rapidly evolving, with companies like us increasingly leveraging generative AI to create and consume APIs. In Gartner’s 2024 Hype Cycle for APIs, several key trends and innovations are highlighted that software engineering leaders and their teams should be aware of. From the rise of event-driven APIs to the challenges of API security, this blog post will explore the most significant developments in the API landscape.

A predictable, stable environment (in terms of your operating system, system libraries, build tools, and programming libraries) is essential to each development step: from onboarding, to collaboration, continuous integration, quality assurance, and deployment. Deviation can cause one-off, intermittent, and even catastrophic failures. However, consistency can be elusive, even with the best intentions, best practices, and tools in place, because: Nix aims to solve some of these issues.

Welcome to the latest entry in Yellowfin Japan’s ‘How to?’ blog series! This series of blogs aims to provide your team with another hands-on example of adding data visualization to your Yellowfin dashboards, using our array of chart and graph types. In our previous blog, we created a heat grid by aggregating on the basis of Day of Week and Time of Day. By sorting the axes of the chart, we were able to create an easy-to-read chart lined up from Sunday to Saturday and from 0:00 to 23:00.

In the world of software development, quality assurance (QA) is crucial for delivering reliable and robust applications. One of the most effective strategies to enhance software quality is "shift-left testing.".

Since HP ALM/Quality Center was acquired by Micro Focus (and now Open Text), users have been outgrowing its functionality. While HP upgraded many of its solutions to be more compatible with Agile and to support automation, ALM/Quality Center was left behind. What was once considered a best-in-class solution is becoming more obsolete by the day, having no resources allocated to development and limited support for customers. Today, there are better ALM options available.
