You just finished creating your web application and want to clean it from any possible bugs, imperfections, and performance issues. But you feel a bit overwhelmed with the choice of testing tools and frameworks and the articles singing their praises. In this article, we will explore using Selenium with Python for test automation.

Seven years ago, we announced Linx 5, a release specifically designed to modernise and commercialise an internal tool we had been using with our enterprise customers for the previous 15 years. By all accounts, Linx 5 was a huge success with our customers and partners. With Linx 6, we’ve built on that success with new features, a streamlined UI, and a new diffable file format – something our customers have been clamouring for.

Any software application must work properly, generate the right results, satisfy stakeholders, and fit into the organization's overall objectives. Automated testing can help. It may sound easy, but we all know that achieving all of the above takes a lot of effort. Can we take a shortcut without compromising quality or causing costs to explode?

Codeless automation testing tools simplify the process of test automation. Using a visual approach, engineers and manual testers alike can easily create, maintain, and execute automation tests with no or minimal test scripts. Here's everything you need to know to get a clear picture of what all the hype is about with codeless automation testing tools!

More and more in web application testing processes, companies deploy a mix of automated and manual testing frameworks. If implemented correctly, manual and automated application testing practices bring out the best in each other, resulting in a synergetic testing process that wholly benefits the application.

Being a manual tester is a mentally-taxing career. It is basically part of the job to be stressed out by the number of tests and stretched thin by tight deadlines. In the middle of this chaos, have you ever wondered ”Shouldn’t this huge amount of tests be automated?”.

When it comes to introducing and scaling automated testing, QA teams can get quickly overwhelmed trying to figure out what processes to automate first, which tests stand to gain the most ROI, and how automation can work with manual testing strategies. Teams often look to general frameworks, like the test automation pyramid, to dive into building their automated testing strategy.

We recently talked to Angie Jones in a podcast episode dedicated to best practices in software testing. In this article, drawing on our previous discussion, we’ll share her thoughts about the main factors to consider to build a comprehensive test automation strategy.
