Why You Need to Care About Automated Functional Testing in 2019Sarah Elson

How many times have you come across products that have good UI but really bad functionality such as severe lagging experience and ample number of bugs or vice-versa. There could be multiple reasons for the product to go live, but it definitely gives an indication that thorough testing was not performed. There could be scenarios where a minor software update which was not tested for all the ‘corner scenarios’ could break the existing functionalities in a software product.

How to Implement Continuous Testing in Dev Ops Like a Pro Sarah Elson

In a decade, the need for software development has evolved drastically. The software has become a key differentiator for companies to gain a competitive edge, especially if your company falls under the SaaS umbrella. From the implementation of traditional processes such as a waterfall in their SDLC, organizations are now transitioning towards Agile in order to deliver software at a faster pace in the market. To cope up with RAD(Rapid Application Development), we have witnessed numerous new approaches such as CI/CD, DevOps, Shift left testing to build, develop and optimize software delivery. Even so, trying to maintain both quality and speed is a real challenge, and testing methodologies can either aid or downshift this whole acceleration process.

CSS With Feature Detection for Cross Browser CompatibilitySarah Elson

The primary goal of every web developer is to build websites with modern and intuitive designs that deliver a smooth and seamless user experience irrespective of which browser they might be using to surf the web.

Skyrocket Your Cross Browser Testing with Minimal EffortSarah Elson

One thing that is evident with developers is their preferences for IDE, Operating System, Browser, etc. If you take the case of web developers, a majority of them have an affinity towards certain types of browsers; due to that preference they prefer cross browser testing their source code only on ‘browsers of their choice’. After testing, the functionalities programmed by the web developer may work fine on specific browsers, but the situation in the real world is completely different. The users of your web-app or website might come from different parts of the world and may have a different preference towards browsers (or browser versions), some customer may even prefer to use completely outdated browsers which are having a minuscule market share in the browser market.

Overcoming The Challenges Faced in Exploratory TestingSarah Elson

It is pretty evident from the name ‘Exploratory Testing’, that, it is the continuous process of learning through a cycle of trial and error. Unlike scripted testing, exploratory testing does not have test cases which can be executed and compared with the results. Rather, it is an intelligent way of testing which calls for innovation and individual thought process of the tester. This is also a reason why despite automation being the big word in the modern day, exploratory testing is a hot topic.

Design Patterns for Micro Service ArchitectureSarah Elson

Imagine breaking down a single function unit into multiple mini-service units. That is exactly what microservices do to the traditional monolithic architecture. But, there is more to it than meets the eye. Microservices are the go-to solution for all the major software development projects. But even though it serves a major purpose, there are certain challenges across the way which need to be addressed. And as one design a microservice architecture along the way, one learns several microservice design patterns which can not only improve the performance but also ease the life of the developer. But before we delve deeper into the architecture design patterns, let’s understand the basic principles to keep in mind when we design a microservice architecture.
