Welcome to the 48th edition of Coding Jag brought to you by LambdaTest!👐
We’re a testing culture. A culture of testers, developers, and QA who work together to deliver the best possible end product for our customers. Our goal is to deliver quality products that delight our users. To do this, we need to follow best practices and take an iterative approach to ensure superb usability throughout all stages of the development lifecycle. We also recognize that automation not only reduces cost but helps us increase productivity in ways that ultimately improve the quality of every product we produce.
Today, let’s talk about enjoying the rare win-win-win of “better, faster, cheaper” testing!
News
QA is being redefined as test engineering, quality engineering, or even customer delight engineering. See what testing trends are creating the change in software testing.
Detailed test cases are something that does not add value to testing so instead write test ideas and mission statements. These test ideas could be just in the form of scenarios with acceptance criteria.
When you think about test leadership, the first thing that may come to mind is a formal role that comes with some sort of authority. Test leadership is not a role but an accepted pattern of actions.
There will be even bigger changes in the software testing industry than we have ever seen. Let’s have a look at the testing trends, which we might face in the near future.
Why don’t we just automate all the testing? Is test coverage a useful metric? What does it mean to “shift testing left”? When and where should we be testing? How much is enough testing?
Agile software development comes in many flavors, and nobody exclusively owns its definition. Here are eight signs your Agile testing is not as Agile as you think it is.
Performance
Time travel debugging greatly improves developer velocity. Put yourself in the top quartile of high-performing companies.
Defect tracking and management is a crucial step in the software development lifecycle, which improves the probability of high-quality end products.
Automation
In this blog, you will learn to handle cookies in Selenium WebDriver, clearing session cookies using Selenium, and more.
Out of ignorance, we end up thinking that it is just another testing framework and that it will soon pass and another one will come to replace it. Is that really so?
Many people do not realize that business analysts can also benefit from CT significantly. Surprised? It is actually very logical: BAs use the application (via UI) a lot (maybe only behind manual testers).
In this article, we’ll quickly go over the reason why we decided to start automating, and we’ll focus on how we prioritized which test cases to automate first.
Tools
BDD is an approach just like Agile whereas Cucumber is an automation tool that supports BDD but cucumber is not BDD.
With so many frameworks available in the market, thorough deliberation is necessary before choosing a framework to get started with.
