Joseph, who has been working as a Quality Engineer, was assigned to perform web automation for the company’s website.
I was once asked at a testing summit, “How do you manage a QA team using scrum?” After some consideration, I realized it would make a good article, so here I am. Understand that the idea behind developing software in a scrum environment is for development teams to self-organize.
Hey Testers! We know it’s been tough out there at this time when the pandemic is far from gone and remote working has become the new normal. Regardless of all the hurdles, we are continually working to bring more features on-board for a seamless cross-browser testing experience.
One of the most important skills for leaders to have is the ability to prioritize. To understand how we can organize all of the tasks that must be completed in order to complete a project, we must first understand the business we are in, particularly the project goals. There might be several project drivers that stimulate project execution and motivate a company to allocate the appropriate funding.
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.

How can I exclude certain files or directories from pytest coverage reports?
How can I exclude certain files or directories from pytest coverage reports?
Hi Tim,
Use the --cov-config option with a .coveragerc file where you can specify exclude patterns under the [run] section to ignore certain paths or files.
For more info generating pytest code coverage reports, please check this article:
When running pytest with pytest-cov plugin, you can use command line options to exclude specific files or directories from coverage.
Use --cov-exclude option followed by a comma-separated list of paths or glob patterns to exclude from coverage.
pytest --cov=my_module --cov-exclude=test_*,*/config.py
This command excludes files starting with “test_” and any config.py file under subdirectories from coverage analysis.
For this, you can use .coveragerc file as well:
Create a .coveragerc file in your project directory or configure an existing one. Specify exclude patterns under the [run] section to ignore certain paths or files from coverage analysis.
Example .coveragerc file content:
[run]
omit =
*/test_*
*/config.py
This configuration excludes files starting with “test_” and any config.py file under subdirectories from coverage reporting.
Test case code snippets
Description:
Provide a lang attribute on the page's HTML element. When a visual label is present for an interactive element (e.g., link or form control), the accessible name of the element should contain the visual label.
Description:
Verify that the API correctly handles versioning and returns the correct HTTP status code.
Description:
If an input error is detected and if suggestions for correction are known, provide suggestions for fixing the submission.
