Pair testing can help you complete your testing tasks faster and with higher quality. But who can do pair testing, and when should it be done? And what form of pair testing is best for your circumstance? Check out this blog for more information on how to conduct pair testing to optimize its benefits.
The rapid shift in the use of technology has impacted testing and quality assurance significantly, especially around the cloud adoption of agile development methodologies. With this, the increasing importance of quality and automation testing has risen enough to deliver quality work.
JavaScript is one of the most widely used programming languages. This popularity invites a lot of JavaScript development and testing frameworks to ease the process of working with it. As a result, numerous JavaScript testing frameworks can be used to perform unit testing.
The web development industry is growing, and many Best Automated UI Testing Tools are available to test your web-based project to ensure it is bug-free and easily accessible for every user. These tools help you test your web project and make it fully compatible with user-end requirements and needs.
The fact is not alien to us anymore that cross browser testing is imperative to enhance your application’s user experience. Enhanced knowledge of popular and highly acclaimed testing frameworks goes a long way in developing a new app. It holds more significance if you are a full-stack developer or expert programmer.
