Learn how Selenium’s click() command works to simulate mouse clicks for automated UI testing, as well as how to send a right-click mouse command. If you’re using Selenium to automate UI testing for your app, Selenium’s will become one of your most commonly used methods. It’s important to understand how the Selenium click() command works for automated testing and how to find more information and resources when your needs are more complex.
Speedscale creates load tests from recorded traffic so generating load is pretty core to what we do. As a brief overview, we record traffic from your service in one environment and replay it in another, optionally increasing load several fold. During a replay the Speedscale load generator makes requests against the system under test (SUT), with the responses from external dependencies like APIs or a payment processor optionally mocked out for consistency. Your service is the SUT here. Currently the load generator runs as a single process, usually inside a pod in Kubernetes. So how fast is this thing, and how did we get to where we are today?
GitHub Copilot has been the subject of some controversy since Microsoft announced it in the Summer of 2021. Whatever your feelings about the matter, Copilot is likely here to stay. So that got me thinking — perhaps there are more important questions to ask about Copilot. If developers are going to use an AI-assisted code generation tool, it would be more productive to think about how to improve it rather than contemplating its right to exist.
As the rate of delivery for applications and services continues to rise, performance testing often takes a backseat in the race to delivering apps on-time. This 2022 holiday season is expected to be bigger than ever, with holiday shopping growing 15.5% to $236 billion. During this make-or-break time of year, companies can’t afford for their apps to become unreliable under heavy load.
To be a leader in any industry is to be a leader in technology. In the whirlwind of digital transformation, innovation happens every day with software and software quality at the forefront. To not be left behind, now more than ever, CEOs, team leaders, and decision-makers should rethink software quality - the single most important element that determines their success.
It is estimated there are over 15 billion mobile devices (phones and tablets) in the world today. And customers, businesses, and service providers are using or developing native mobile apps for everyday needs.
API load testing, which identifies how stable your APIs are under different workloads, is a crucial part of performance testing. In this guide you will learn what is API load testing, when to perform load testing, and more. One growing pain of increasing iterative development and shortening release cycles is a growing inability to detect and fix inefficient code – whether in the CI/CD pipeline or in production.
