How AIOps is Transforming the Future of IT Operations?

Sam Altman, the key visionary behind the popular adaption of Gen AI and essentially the father of ChatGPT, deemed it “unthinkable” to have products and services without AI integration in the future. I’m sure that among other beliefs that inspired him to make such claims, the need for intelligence beyond efficiency in the modern digital ecosystem was a key one. It only makes sense to rethink IT management in this context and replace our traditional methods with the benefits of AIOps.

The End of Manual-Only Testing

Is manual testing enough to keep up with the speed of modern development? @Allen Loew from Progressive Leasing explains that while there’s still a place for manual testing in specific cases, automation is becoming a necessity. Automation helps teams maintain the velocity required to meet deadlines. As projects grow in complexity and size, automation is essential to manage large volumes of tests and data efficiently.

Shift Left: Bad Data in Event Streams, Part 2

Alright, I’m back. Time for part 2. In the first part, I covered how we handle bad data in batch processing. In particular, cutting out the bad data, replacing it, and running it again. But this strategy doesn’t work for immutable event streams as they are, well, immutable. You can’t cut out and replace bad data like you would in batch processed data sets.

Avoiding Automation Testing Pitfalls with High-Quality Test Code

So in today’s world of software development, where things happen so fast, test automation is no longer an option but a necessity. Thus, it helps developers shift their attention to creativity and develop new features rather than being bogged down by monotonous microtasks. But here’s the catch: automation isn’t an effortless solution. If not handled properly, it can create more issues than solutions—poor-quality test code, unreliable (flaky) tests, and holes in test coverage.

Boosting Release Confidence: Scalable and Secure Testing to Prepare for the Holidays

Delivering high-quality digital experiences during the holiday season is crucial, with 30% of annual revenue on the line. Developers need scalable, secure, and compliant infrastructure to ensure smooth releases and easy software testing. However, over 60% of developers admit to releasing untested code to meet deadlines, risking bugs and jeopardizing customer experience and revenue. Listen to the discussion about how to mitigate risk, catch bugs earlier, and test securely at scale in preparation for a busy holiday season.

Why Automation Visual Testing: The Future of Software QA

Within the domain of software quality assurance, functionality and user experience hold a paramount position, and visual testing becomes an indispensable protector of the digital environment. The complexity of modern apps is always growing, thus it's critical to guarantee pixel-perfect precision and smooth visual consistency across all platforms and devices.

How to improve "softer" skills for modern Quality Engineering

The dynamic landscape of product development continuously increases the scope of what is demanded from quality engineering (QE) professionals. So, it is not surprising that workplace learning and upskilling are critical to the organizational success, as highlighted by Workplace Learning Report: Without a doubt, the more technical side of the skill spectrum - e.g.
