Selenium IDE is a popular open-source tool for recording and running automated browser tests. You can use it to interact with a browser the way a human would, doing things like navigating to URLs, filling in forms, and clicking on links and buttons. You can also use “assertions” to verify things are working as expected, like checking that elements are present, text is present, inputs contain certain values, et cetera.

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.

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.

Companies use a wide range of both artificial intelligence (AI) and automation tools, and each automation tool serves a different purpose, often working together to boost efficiency. In this blog, we’ll explore the differences between AI and automation, how they can complement each other through intelligent automation, and five real-world examples of how they work together. We’ll also highlight the benefits of using AI in business process automation.

The software testing in earlier times was a purely manual method, which was quite labor-intensive and included a high chance of errors. Over the years, the complexity of systems led to the need for a better and more effective method for testing these software systems. This is where automation testing transforms the face of software testing. First, automation was used for unit tests or simple checks of the components of a system that are not connected with other components.

Understanding when to leverage Katalon TestCloud and Katalon Runtime Engine (KRE) is essential to optimize your test automation strategy. Each tool serves a distinct purpose, from enabling scalable cloud-based test execution to ensuring robust performance in various environments. This guide will help you navigate their unique capabilities, empowering you to make informed decisions that maximize efficiency and effectiveness in your test automation.

ERP providers constantly seek ways to enhance their offerings, streamline operations, and provide superior value to their clients in the ever-evolving landscape of enterprise software. One of the most transformative strategies in this domain is the integration of iPaaS (Integration Platform as a Service). This blog post explores how partnering with an iPaaS can significantly boost an ERP provider’s capabilities, offering strategic advantages and substantial ROI.

Financial services organisations are constantly pressured to streamline operations while maintaining stringent security and compliance standards. As back-office processes become more complex, a flexible, scalable, and automated integration platform becomes essential. Linx addresses these challenges by providing an advanced platform that delivers highly customisable solutions tailored to each organisation’s needs.

For years, the traditional approach to automating tests relied heavily on scripted automation frameworks like Selenium, JUnit, and TestNG. While these tools are powerful and adaptable, they require a significant level of technical expertise. Testers need to write, debug, and maintain complex scripts, often leading to bottlenecks in the development process. Relying only on coded solutions limits test automation to a small portion of the team that has deep coding skills.

If you work in Quality Assurance testing, you know that automated browser testing saves every tester from hours upon hours of manual test work. But exactly what is automation testing, and how does it fit into a typical QA workflow? We’ve got the full explanation for you in this straightforward guide on the basics of automation testing, how it can transform your QA process, and how to get started with test automation tools like Ghost Inspector.
