In today's fast-paced software development landscape, maintaining application stability while delivering new features is a constant challenge. According to recent industry data, 80% of software defects are discovered after code has been merged into the main branch, making regression testing a critical component of quality assurance as we explained in our blog post: " Guide to Regression Testing: Example Test Plan & Best Practices".

The landscape of test automation is constantly evolving, with Playwright and Selenium standing as two prominent frameworks in 2025. According to recent statistics, while Selenium maintains its position as the most widely used automation framework with a 39% market share, Playwright has shown remarkable growth, increasing its adoption by 235% in the past year.

In today’s fast-paced software development world, delivering high-quality software on time is paramount. Shift-left testing—the practice of moving testing activities earlier in the development cycle—has emerged as a cornerstone of modern development methodologies like Agile and DevOps. To implement shift-left testing effectively, test management tools play a critical role, enabling teams to manage, execute, and optimize testing processes efficiently.

In today's dynamic web development landscape, efficient test planning has become crucial for delivering high-quality applications. As we introduced in our post " Maintaining End-to-End Testing using Cypress with TestQuality", Cypress has emerged as a leading modern testing framework, offering real-time testing capabilities and superior developer experience.

Thinking about the evolution of Test Planning in modern software development, we find that effective test planning has become more crucial in today's fast-paced software development landscape as we discussed in our post Test Plan vs Test Strategy: Best Practices, Examples, and Pros & Cons, which highlights the importance of structured test planning in improving efficiency and coverage.

In the dynamic world of software development, ensuring that applications remain stable and functional as they evolve is crucial. This is where regression testing plays a vital role, especially when employing powerful test automation tools like Playwright. For software developers and QA professionals, creating a detailed test plan for regression testing using Playwright can significantly enhance the efficiency and reliability of testing processes.

Recently we discussed how to boost testing efficiency with free test plan templates, QA professionals are better equipped to follow best practices and industry standards when there is standardization and consistency, which lowers the risk of supervision and guarantees that all required components are tested In the fast-paced world of software development, maintaining the quality and stability of applications is a top priority.

The pressure to deliver high-quality software faster than ever is a constant challenge in today's competitive environment. Traditional testing approaches that focus on late-stage defect detection often lead to costly rework and delays. To address this, Shift Left Testing has emerged as a proactive strategy that emphasizes integrating testing activities earlier in the Software Development Lifecycle (SDLC) as we discussed in our previous post about where testing currently was going in 2024.

Imagine you are a software developer and you are buzzing with excitement because you've just deployed a new feature at work. But suddenly, you hear whispers of a critical bug in the old functionality. That gut-wrenching moment reminds us how important it is to know when regression testing should be performed.

In the evolving landscape of software testing, Behavior-Driven Development (BDD) has emerged as a powerful methodology for improving collaboration between technical and non-technical team members. However, the implementation of BDD tools like Gherkin and Cucumber often falls short of their intended purpose. Let's explore how to effectively use these tools and avoid common pitfalls.
