From zero to automation: A hands-on guide to kickstart your journey

Test automation can feel overwhelming for beginners. Many give up early, believing they need advanced coding skills, or setting unrealistic goals like automating everything at once. Even new Katalon users sometimes dive into advanced features too quickly and hit roadblocks. This webinar is designed to simplify your journey and help you start strong. Here is what you'll gain from this session.

Fuzz Testing REST APIs in Node.js

It’s not enough to just test our code's happy path (in other words, the error-free path we hope our users will take). To be really confident our code can’t be abused, either accidentally or on purpose, we must actively attack it to try and find ways of breaking it. If we don’t do this, someone else will, and they probably won’t be as friendly.

Mastering Mocking: A Complete Guide To Mocks And Other Test Doubles

Imagine building a system where you want to validate if the logic implemented would fit in when the entire system is built, but for that, you would have to build the entire architecture (well, a lot of resources are spent). Now imagine a way where you can simulate the versions of real objects or components. This is where Data Mock comes into play!

Is AI Living Up to the Hype? A Retrospective Look from Industry Experts

AI has made waves in testing, but how much has really changed? In this episode of Test Case Scenario, Jason Baum, Evelyn Coleman, and Marcus Merrell take a critical look at the progress of AI in software testing. They discuss the real capabilities of tools like ChatGPT and Copilot, what’s improved over time, and what still leaves testers frustrated. You’ll also hear insights into how AI tools are shaping software development workflows, why cost and sustainability are becoming bigger concerns, and what testers can do to separate AI hype from practical solutions.

Intro to proxymock, a free traffic-based service mocking tool within VS Code.

Speedscale's proxymock is a free VS Code plugin that passively listens to transactions, so developers can replay past responses or inbound transactions like a time machine. Past transactions can serve as non-rate-limited service mocks, editable databases, or even regression/load/chaos tests. Building service mocks to serve as service virtualization/mocks can be time consuming and manual. Maintaining complex, shared environments for engineering incurs expensive cloud costs and aren't often accurate.

Ultimate Guide to Creating a JSON Mock API for Testing

Using a JSON mock allows you to avoid using fake data or simulating interactions, resulting in better final output and stronger data flows. Today, we’re going to dive into the process of creating a mock API using JSON data and tools like JSON-server. This guide will help you understand the basics of this process and get started quickly with your own mock API, allowing you to speed up development and testing without relying on a live backend.

Testing Vs Debugging: Prioritize Efficiently

In the world of software development, testing and debugging are two of the key components. These two key components are dedicated to different purposes. Before you prioritize between these two and know more about testing vs. debugging, you must have an in-depth knowledge of testing individually. Testing and debugging are essential for software development projects. This write-up will break down these two components, and you will receive insight into the comparisons and the factors related to them.

How AI is Transforming Software Testing in 2025

The software testing landscape is experiencing an unprecedented transformation as we venture into 2024. This transformation isn't merely an incremental change—it represents a fundamental shift in how organizations approach quality assurance and testing methodologies. At the heart of this revolution lies artificial intelligence (AI), which is reshaping traditional testing paradigms and creating new possibilities for quality assurance professionals and developers alike.
