How Quality Testing Drives Business Growth

Escaped bugs can break more than your code—they can break the bank, too. In this episode of Test Case Scenario, Jason Baum, Evelyn Coleman, and Marcus Merrell break down the connection between software quality and business impact. They talk about how to approach postmortems, why some features matter more than others, and how technical teams can align their work with business goals. You’ll also hear real-life stories of bugs that cost companies millions and learn practical tips for balancing technical needs with business priorities in industries like retail, finance, healthcare, and government.

How Honeybadger migrated from Sidekiq to Karafka

Background tasks are one of the core pillars when considering web applications for scale. The basic idea is simple: A client makes a request to your web application and in handling that request, your app performs several time-expensive tasks. To allow it to respond to the client faster, the app enqueues a background job to a background processing system. The background processing is then tasked with all the heavy lifting, like computations or I/O operations.

Stop Treating Your LLM Like a Database

This article was originally published on The New Stack on Dec. 19, 2024. Imagine driving a car with a headset that only updates your view every five minutes instead of providing a continuous video stream. How long would it take before you crashed? While this type of batch processing clearly doesn’t work in the real world, it's how many systems operate today. Batch processing, born out of outdated technology constraints, forces applications to rely on static, delayed data.

How to Implement Secure Access Control with OPA and Kong

Ensuring secure access to applications and APIs is critical. As organizations increasingly adopt microservices architectures and cloud native solutions, the need for robust, fine-grained access control mechanisms becomes paramount. This is where the combination of Open Policy Agent (OPA) and Kong Gateway shines.

Black Box Testing And White Box Testing: A Complete Guide

Software Testing is the most important step in the software development process. This process helps in validating and verifying that a software application is Bug-free, and the software is improved in terms of efficiency, accuracy and usability. Black Box Testing and White Box Testing are two most useful testing techniques for Software Testing. In this blog, we will be covering more about their definitions, advantages, disadvantages, their types, limitations and tools used for testing.

Data Driven VSM for Quality Excellence | Ashwini Lalit | #testflix2024

In this session, Ashwini Lalit delves into how Quality Engineering teams can leverage a data-driven approach to Value Stream Mapping (VSM) to achieve quality excellence. Traditional workflows often mask inefficiencies and bottlenecks behind agile ceremonies and feel-good optics, making it challenging to gauge the true readiness of release deliverables. By combining VSM with agile principles and DevOps tools, Ashwini demonstrates how to visualize workflows holistically, streamline production releases, and transition from reactive to proactive quality processes.
