The latest News and Information on Software Testing and related technologies.
Few things are more frustrating than slow, flaky test suites. You're ready to deploy, wait 20 minutes for CI to run, only to find that a test failure in code you've never touched is blocking you. You dig into the source and find the problem: an external API call. It works (slowly) most of the time. But sometimes the network glitches and it fails. What do you do? In this article, José Manuel shows us several techniques for removing external API dependencies from our tests.
In today's retail marketplace, digital channels hold a prominent and often central position. Modern software practices emphasize the need for rapid development and deployment. The retail world is no exception to this need for speed. To match the pace of innovation, continuous testing throughout the software development life cycle is the best way to build digital confidence and provide a great user experience.
Exploratory testing helps you cover more untested code, discover new testing scenarios, and find hard to catch bugs which might go unnoticed when you initially drafted your test cases. Take advantage of exploratory testing with the new Xray Exploratory App and ensure the highest quality for your systems. Uncover hidden bugs, reach maximum code coverage and use the skills of testers to find errors.
In this webinar, security experts Sivan Tehila and Justin Dolly will discuss:
“Quality is “value to some person” (quoting Jerry Weinberg) and as such is highly subjective. Because of that, there is rarely a set of metrics that can be used as a recipe for most cases; which in turn makes indicators of readiness to deploy, data to be collected, etc.
This third version of Kraken represents one more step towards a load testing solution suitable to teams and enterprises. Kraken can already be installed on your own Kubernetes cluster thanks to Helm charts: You own all data and can handle the security inhouse. But until now it was lacking users management, making it cumbersome to use it for a team of performance testers. This point is now addressed in the version 3.0 thanks to Keycloak.
Employees today are more mobile than ever. As we saw, due to COVID-19 the majority of organizations moved their employees to a work from home model overnight. This quick change of location forced businesses to implement solutions that would provide their workforces secure remote access to an increasingly complex corporate network.
