New Year Resolutions Of Every Website Tester In 2020

Were you able to work upon your resolutions for 2019? I may sound comical here but my 2019 resolution being a web developer was to take a leap into web testing in my free time. Why? So I could understand the release cycles from a tester’s perspective. I wanted to wear their shoes and see the SDLC from their eyes. I also thought that it would help me groom myself better as an all-round IT professional.

Using ChatGPT for Test Automation

ChatGPT broke all Internet records by going viral in the first week of its launch. A million users in 5 days are unprecedented. A conversational AI that can answer natural language-based questions and create poems, write movie scripts, write social media posts, write descriptive essays, and do tons of amazing things. Our first thought when we got access to the platform was how to use this amazing platform to make the lives of web and mobile app testers easier. And most importantly, how we can use ChatGPT for automated testing.

Fault-Based Testing and the Pesticide Paradox

In some sense, testing can be more difficult than coding, as validating the efficiency of the test cases (i.e., the ‘goodness’ of your tests) can be much harder than validating code correctness. In practice, the tests are just executed without any validation beyond the pass/fail verdict. On the contrary, the code is (hopefully) always validated by testing. By designing and executing the test cases the result is that some tests have passed, and some others have failed. Testers do not know much about how many bugs remain in the code, nor about their bug-revealing efficiency.
