Sometimes, you find yourself searching for bugs without any specific purpose or direction. This occurs when your QA team lacks the proper mindset and strategy for exploratory testing. Without clear guidance or goals, your test coverage will be inadequate, and you'll have less productive use of your time. In his book Exploratory Software Testing: Tips, Tricks, Tours, and Techniques to Guide Test Design, James Whittaker provides a practical solution to help you level up your exploratory testing.

Constituent services can be supercharged through government agencies’ IT modernization and digitization efforts. To achieve success on these initiatives, a strategic and calculated approach to testing is needed. In their recent Tech Spotlight on IT Modernization, Federal Computer Week (FCW) spoke with Dr. Grigori Melnik, Chief Strategy Officer at Tricentis, about how the implementation of automated testing can expedite the IT modernization process while ensuring confidence in the outcomes.

In mobile development, flaky tests are a persistent issue. They’re frustrating because a test is ‘flaky’ when it produces both ‘passing’ and ‘failing’ results from the same code. This wastes developers’ time by triggering unnecessary investigations and delays the integration of their code.

Manual testing involves the hands-on evaluation of software or applications, without relying on automated testing tools or pre-written test scripts. Testers simulate user interactions to uncover bugs, defects, and elements that hinder the user experience. By immersing themselves in the software, testers can identify and report issues that may have otherwise gone unnoticed. On the other hand, automated testing allows for the automatic execution of tests using software frameworks.
