We’ve been hard at work over the past year with new features every month, and we’re super excited to tell you about the new capabilities. Our product roadmap focus has been relentless. Helping your teams get: All of this while making Zephyr Enterprise more scalable and secure for your teams. We know how important these themes are, and we’re committed to meeting Enterprise teams where they’re at, and getting them to where they’re going.

Have you ever heard someone complain about their tests being too fast? Me neither. Fast tests mean fast feedback. Whether you run them locally or in a continuous integration pipeline, the earlier your tests finish, the earlier you can react to failures and improve your code. Besides the productivity gains, it is well known that slow tests make developers grumpy. Nobody likes their developers grumpy. With all that said, creating a lightning-fast test suite isn't always as easy as you'd hope.

In software testing, smoke tests are a small set of end-to-end tests that make sure the most essential functions of an application or website work properly. Many software teams run a smoke testing suite of 10 to 15 tests as a preliminary step before running an entire regression suite (which could have anywhere from 50 to 500+ tests) to make sure the app is stable enough to merit further testing.

No code and low code test automation are becoming widely adopted and will help address the evolving challenges faced by businesses today. However, what is the difference between no code and low code? When is it useful for an organization to adopt? How useful are their capabilities? Will this dampen the need for skilled Automation Engineers, Software Development Engineers in Test (SDET), or traditional Quality Assurance (QA) Specialists?

Deploying and maintaining a scalable, transformative digital platform like Salesforce.com requires significant time, money, and people power. You wouldn't buy a car or a boat without taking it for a test drive first. Why roll the dice on a Salesforce deployment? Exercise the same caution with scheduled or continuous Salesforce testing with smart tools. Ensure successful deployments, upgrades, and performance of your CRM, analytics, and related services.

Successful software teams are continuously searching for methods to improve the efficiency of its members. They recognize that enhancing the development process is a solid method to increase quality while decreasing time to market. This may necessitate the addition of new tools, but it may also necessitate a step back from day-to-day work to take a fresh look at what we're doing. Think about testing.
