OTT testing targets Over-The-Top (OTT) apps/streaming services that deliver media content exclusively via the Internet, bypassing traditional distribution channels. Some superstars? Netflix, Spotify, YouTube, Crunchyroll, Disney+, Showtime, HBO Max, and Amazon Prime Video. Due to the inherent complexity of their systems, streaming services are prone to experiencing software bugs that can disrupt the user experience.

Bug triage is a critical step in software testing that entails reviewing, prioritizing, and allocating software defects to the appropriate team for resolution. The defect triage phase is an important aspect of the software development lifecycle. It allows teams to analyze and classify detected bugs based on severity and prioritize them accordingly. In this blog, we will go through the mechanics of defect triage and why it is so important for effective software testing.

Although the severity of the risks can vary, it’s nevertheless crucial for your development process to reduce risk as much as possible.

Are you struggling with database issues such as data integrity, performance, and security? Look no further! Database testing is a process that can help you address these issues and ensure the reliability of your database system. In this comprehensive guide, we’ll explore everything you need to know about database testing, including its types, components, checklist, best practices, and automation tools.

Hardware and software systems often involve numerous parameters that influence a system’s output(s). Those parameters can represent input, environment, or usage patterns and can have a finite or infinite number of options/values. For instance, on a booking flights website, the Flying From, Flying to, Class, (number of) Adults, and (number of) Children input parameters can easily provide hundreds of different combinations for creating tests.

In the rapidly changing software development industry, enterprises must keep up with the latest trends or risk falling behind. The State of Software Quality Report 2023, with insights from over 3000 QA teams, provides a comprehensive view of the software quality landscape. Experts from Katalon, Deloitte, and Cigniti recently participated in a webinar. They shared their real-world experiences and discussed best practices and strategies to enhance software quality and achieve business success.

There are many factors to keep in mind when thinking about how to keep systems and applications secure. First and foremost is the actual environment where the application is deployed. The environment consists of the Operating System (OS), libraries included with the OS, and software that runs in the background. In a perfect world, an application would have very few or zero dependencies on the environment, thereby eliminating the need to keep dependencies up to date.
