NeoLoad 2024.3 to include extensive RTE support and more!

We’re excited to unveil a sneak peek of the upcoming NeoLoad 2024.3 release, which will be generally available this November. One of the most anticipated features in this release is remote terminal emulation (RTE) support — a game-changer for teams responsible for the performance of mainframe and other legacy systems.

Federating API Quality Across Bundling Cycles

Over the last decade, many IT leaders have felt confident they were ready for the API evolution. Afterall, they invested a lot into it. Traditional API management platforms promised to deliver on transformational challenges, and offer cornerstone capabilities – API cataloguing, specification support, authentication, authorization permissions, security, policy management, and even developer portals.

Generating Quality Data

The problem with test data is that it can become stale very quickly. This is either through its use from testing or from the fact that it is naturally aging in the test environments. This is not just an issue for performance testing, although the volumes of data sometimes required for performance testing do make it harder. This also affects functional testing as well as batch testing and business acceptance testing amongst others.

Why Slowing Down Can Lead to Better Products

Balancing speed and quality isn’t just about product development—it’s about shaping the future of your business. @Evelyn Coleman shares why the limitations on development speed are actually a blessing. Moving too fast without gathering feedback can send your product down the wrong path. It’s the balance between velocity and quality that helps teams gather the insights they need to build something truly impactful.

Imagine being at the helm of a project, excited to launch an innovative software application, but then... the testing phase reveals critical flaws that could have been caught earlier. This experience is a stark reminder of how vital a cohesive test plan can be. Join me as we explore how a visual test plan builder can transform your approach to crafting robust test plans, ensuring quality at every step of the way!

What's New in Selenium 4 - Advanced Key Features

Testing web applications is more difficult today than ever before, as testing on the web is time-consuming. Complexity increases with technology, and businesses and developers need efficient tools to deal with it. This is where Selenium became one of the most widely used test automation tools and has been crucial in reducing testing efforts as well as improving user experience. Selenium is an open-source tool developed to automate web browsers.

Zephyr Enterprise - Parameterization in Zephyr Enterprise

Achieve greater test coverage with less effort using parameterization, now available in Zephyr Enterprise 8.2. In this short video we will show you how you can now add global and local parameters to your tests in Zephyr, allowing for more test coverage and less maintenance for your test suites overall.

Migration Guide: From Restassured To Keploy

If you’re tired of writing endless lines of repetitive code in RestAssured just to test your APIs, you’re not alone. API testing shouldn’t feel like pulling teeth, but let’s face it—REST Assured can make the process boring and unnecessarily time-consuming. But what if you could leave that grind behind? In this guide, we’ll show you how to make the switch to Keploy, a smarter, zero-code way to test your APIs.

Are Self-Driving Cars Safe?

Are self-driving cars safe? The software in modern cars contains more than 100 million lines of code that enable many different features — cruise control, speed assistance, and parking cameras. And, the code within these embedded systems only gets more complex. This trend will continue as cars of the future become more connected. Cars are increasingly dependent on technology. And they will progressively become more autonomous — and ultimately self-driving.

AI's Impact on Human Intelligence: Are We Getting Smarter or More Dependent?

Artificial Intelligence (AI) has become an inseparable part of our lives, revolutionizing industries, transforming workspaces, and influencing how we interact with technology. From virtual assistants like Siri and Alexa to advanced machine learning algorithms driving breakthroughs in medicine, AI is everywhere. But as AI continues to evolve, a growing question lingers: Is AI making us smarter or more dependent?
