Automated API Testing for CI/CD and Microservices

Interdependence and collaboration between businesses and commercial sectors have changed in recent years with the use of Application Programming Interfaces (APIs). APIs have been around long enough for companies to know that they can use open web technologies to extend their services via in-app integrations. APIs allow two programs to communicate with one another and exchange data in a smooth manner. Once an API has been created, it is vital to test the interface to ensure that it is functional.

Best Practices for End-to-End Testing for Better User Experience

Developers test their code in chunks as it is written. Error monitoring during the development cycle alerts engineers when conflicts arise and helps them identify the root cause. So, you may wonder then, in the age of DevOps and continuous delivery, is end-to-end testing still needed? Not only is it viable, but it is also essential to validate requirements, configurations, and functionality.

Understand API Load Testing vs. API Performance Monitoring

With over a billion more mobile devices projected to become connected over the next year, it’s never been more important to ensure SLA performance and functional reliability for business-critical APIs. While QA, development, and SRE teams have traditionally relied on API load testing and uptime or ping monitors to mitigate performance risk, too many companies have felt the pain of APIs, mobile apps and web platforms failing under stress or unexpected traffic patterns.

Low code vs. No Code Testing Explained: Similarities and Differences

No code and low code test automation are becoming widely adopted and will help address the evolving challenges faced by businesses today. However, what is the difference between no code and low code? When is it useful for an organization to adopt? How useful are their capabilities? Will this dampen the need for skilled Automation Engineers, Software Development Engineers in Test (SDET), or traditional Quality Assurance (QA) Specialists?

Salesforce Testing: An Essentials Guide
