Regression testing—when done well—gives software teams the confidence that their entire application works properly after a code change. But doing regression testing manually is time-consuming, costly, and difficult to scale. As their applications grow in complexity, many teams end up having to throw more and more resources into regression testing—hiring more QA specialists and waiting longer for them to complete testing with each release cycle.

QA testing tools include everything from performance testing tools to workflow management tools. If you’re just getting started with software quality assurance, it can be difficult to know what tools you need (and how to tell them apart). Functional testing is the foundation of most software quality assurance efforts. That’s why we think the right automated functional testing tool is the most important part of your QA toolbox.

Successful usability testing takes time and expertise to plan and execute. Moderated usability testing involves a process of user research, participant recruitment, testing user flows, and analyzing data. The end results will uncover prioritized problem areas that, when addressed, will provide new ways to satisfy and retain your users. Different UX methods are dynamically used depending on the team’s goals, product, and audience.

With today’s accelerated development schedules, your team will likely rely on high-quality testers to help create great user experiences and improve software testing outcomes. Many companies have turned to on-demand freelance testers to ramp up in-house teams for better, more thorough QA coverage. Here’s the catch; this strategy only works if the testers you employ have the right skills for the job.

In a digital-first world, delivering business apps with high efficiency and top-notch quality is critical to your business success and customer satisfaction. Oracle is a major ERP application used by the world’s biggest companies to ensure business runs smoothly, but Oracle deployments are heavy, risky, and slow. How can organizations make them more efficient?

Loadero supports three feature-rich test frameworks: Javascript + Nightwatch Java + TestUI, Python + Py-TestUI, but to expand the functionality further, we also develop custom commands for more insightful performance and load testing. One of the recent additions to the custom commands to use in your Loadero test scripts is the timeExecution() command.

Autonomous testing is an emerging testing practice in which tests are completely created, driven, and managed by AI/ML, eliminating the need for human intervention. Essentially, autonomous testing is a higher level of automation for automation testing. This is a recent shift in the testing industry as AI technologies evolve to be more advanced, opening a promising era of human-machine integration testing.

Exploratory testing is a successful method for locating undiscovered defects in software. However, many companies request that testers use scripted test cases based on predetermined product requirements rather than exploratory testing. Although scripted test cases help find faults in a product's code, exploratory tests assist the QA team in finding difficult-to-predict problems within the features of the finished product.
