Software testing is welcoming the upheavals in the digital world, including the emergence of AI, data analytics, cloud computing, and more. Businesses are engaging with more sophisticated testing versions like continuous testing, shift left, security testing, and more. That’s why a world aspiring for applied AI reports a CAGR of more than 7% post-2024. Therefore, businesses across industries unanimously agree upon the critical importance of software testing.

The adoption of multi-cloud environments has increased as businesses recognize their numerous advantages. A company is considered multi-cloud when it leverages cloud services from two or more providers for its applications and operations. Unlike a single-cloud setup, multi-cloud systems often involve the integration of both private and public clouds or a combination of the two.

Whether you’re a Software Developer, DevOps Engineer, or Quality Assurance (QA) specialist, mastering API testing with tools like Postman is essential, especially during development. API testing using Postman makes it possible to increase security, provide better user experiences, and minimize the possibility of losses through bugs or vulnerabilities.

Testing-as-a-Service (TaaS) is rapidly gaining popularity growing at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 14% from 2024 to 2030. Organizations adopting TaaS report up to 30% cost savings compared to traditional in-house testing. Testlio October 5th, 2024 Discover Outsourced Testing Best Practices Engineers and product managers face the challenge of balancing speed, quality, and cost in software testing as technology continues to evolve rapidly.

As developers, one of the most important things we can consider when designing and building applications is the ability to know if our application is running in an ideal operating condition, or said another way: the ability to know whether or not your application is healthy. This is particularly important when deploying your application to Kubernetes. Kubernetes has the concept of container probes that, when used, can help ensure the health and availability of your application.

At some point, your development team may be considering implementing load testing (also known as stress testing) as part of your software testing process. Load testing validates that your web app is able to withstand a large number of simultaneous users, decreasing the chance that any traffic spikes will bring down your services once deployed. These stress tests can be highly granular, giving you the opportunity to test run virtually unlimited strategies before they are set into the wild.

Transactions-per-Second (TPS) is a valuable metric for evaluating system performance and is particularly relevant for engineers overseeing Kubernetes environments.TPS, alongside average response time, provides critical insights into system performance during load testing. This post covers two approaches to calculating TPS; a manual approach applicable in all environments, and an automatic Kubernetes-specific solution using production traffic replication.

In traditional software development, communication gaps between business stakeholders and technical teams often lead to misunderstandings about requirements. This can result in software that doesn’t meet user needs or business goals. Testlio October 4th, 2024 Discover The Differences Between TDD and BDD Behavior Driven Development (BDD) testing addresses these issues by using simple language for test cases, making them understandable even to non-technical stakeholders.
