Manual cross browser testing is neither efficient nor scalable as it will take ages to test on all permutations & combinations of browsers, operating systems, and their versions. Like every developer, I have also gone through that ‘I can do it all phase’. But if you are stuck validating your code changes over hundreds of browsers and OS combinations then your release window is going to look even shorter than it already is. This is why automated browser testing can be pivotal for modern-day release cycles as it speeds up the entire process of cross browser compatibility.

Technical debt was originally defined as code restructuring, but in today’s fast-paced software delivery environment, it has evolved. Technical debt may be anything that the software development team puts off for later, such as ineffective code, unfixed defects, lacking unit tests, excessive manual tests, or missing automated tests. And, like financial debt, it is challenging to pay back.

The web paradigm has changed considerably over the last few years. Web 2.0, a term coined way back in 1999, was one of the pivotal moments in the history of the Internet. UGC (User Generated Content), ease of use, and interoperability for the end-users were the key pillars of Web 2.0.

Many theoretical descriptions explain the role of the Scrum Master as a vital member of the Scrum team. However, these descriptions do not provide an honest answer to the fundamental question: “What are the day-to-day activities of a Scrum Master?”

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.
