In January 2025, the European Union (EU) will begin enforcing a new regulation called the Digital Operational Resilience Act (DORA). The DORA regulation mandates sweeping cyber resilience requirements for financial institutions and third-party information and communication technology (ICT) providers. In this blog post, we examine how two core Perforce offerings help financial institutions and their supporting ecosystem of service providers comply with the requirements laid out in the DORA regulation.

Software testing plays a crucial role in app development. In fact, studies show that over 20% of apps fail due to bugs and performance issues.

The global software testing market is expected to surpass $60 billion in 2023. This fact underscores the growing importance of quality assurance (QA) in software development.

Postman is highly popular in the testing tools space for verifying API requests. While its use for general API testing is widely adopted, conducting load testing with Postman is not as straightforward. In this post, we assume that you have some experience working with Postman and are familiar with the fundamentals of creating and sending requests. If you’re new to Postman, there are numerous resources available in the Postman Learning Center.

Within the domain of software quality assurance, functionality and user experience hold a paramount position, and visual testing becomes an indispensable protector of the digital environment. The complexity of modern apps is always growing, thus it's critical to guarantee pixel-perfect precision and smooth visual consistency across all platforms and devices.

We at Loadero regularly plan, implement and execute performance tests for clients which has led to us acquiring plenty of first-hand experience on the topic. Within this article we want to share with readers exactly what performance testing is, why it is valuable, as well as cover several factors that should be taken into consideration when deciding on the tests' implementation.

So in today’s world of software development, where things happen so fast, test automation is no longer an option but a necessity. Thus, it helps developers shift their attention to creativity and develop new features rather than being bogged down by monotonous microtasks. But here’s the catch: automation isn’t an effortless solution. If not handled properly, it can create more issues than solutions—poor-quality test code, unreliable (flaky) tests, and holes in test coverage.

Sam Altman, the key visionary behind the popular adaption of Gen AI and essentially the father of ChatGPT, deemed it “unthinkable” to have products and services without AI integration in the future. I’m sure that among other beliefs that inspired him to make such claims, the need for intelligence beyond efficiency in the modern digital ecosystem was a key one. It only makes sense to rethink IT management in this context and replace our traditional methods with the benefits of AIOps.
