Today, it is imperative to deliver high-quaity, bug-free software, more than ever. Several approaches are adopted to ensure this, such as software testing process, using well-set-up test environments, ensuring good test coverage, etc. Test coverage is one of the most significant metrics to ensure software quality. Test coverage is essential to assess the effectiveness of [...]
During software development, developers follow a sequence of fixed stages that is Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC). Which covers software application/product development stages from requirements gathering to release. One of the crucial stages in SDLC is software testing. Software testing is performed to ensure the quality of the product that is developed and also to [...]
The world of software development is dynamic and constantly changing. Here, speed and reliability are paramount, and software testing plays a crucial role in ensuring high-quality applications. With technological innovations, the development cycles shrink and software complexity grows. In such situations, traditional testing approaches are not enough to ensure software quality. One solution to this [...]
Despite the rise of cloud-native and microservices architectures, mainframes continue to run the core systems of some of the world's most important industries—from banking and insurance to government and healthcare. These systems, often written in COBOL, PL/I, or Assembler, are not going anywhere soon. However, testing mainframe applications has traditionally lagged behind in automation, agility, [...]
Security testing is gaining more traction as we head into a world driven by data. You can do almost everything online - buy groceries, enroll in classes, conduct important business meetings, pay your bills, and much more. You would not want your data, say your mobile number or credit card number, to get into the [...]
We make use of Large Language Models (LLMs) like ChatGPT, Gemini, or CoPilot for daily work. But do you find yourself sometimes questioning the sanity of the responses of these models? You might have meant one thing but their response is something else entirely. Before you go all out blaming the AI model for giving [...]
A proxy is like a middleman for your internet connection. Instead of your computer connecting directly to a website or service, the proxy makes the request for you and then sends the response back to your computer. Using proxy settings for local testing is helpful because it allows you to control and manage how your [...]
Gone are the days when the Waterfall model reigned supreme - we're in a new era where quality assurance isn't an afterthought. To bring QA to the forefront, many methodologies, such as Test-Driven Development (TDD), Acceptance Test-Driven Development (ATDD), Behavior-Driven Development (BDD), Specification-Driven Development (SDD), and more, have become prevalent. These methodologies support Agile's preachings [...]
