Delivering high-quality software development projects is of utmost importance in this complex industry, so making sure they reach completion without errors or malfunctions should always be a top priority. This daunting challenge can be made manageable with multiple layers of testing, each serving its own purpose and targeting different aspects of software. Not only do […]
Technical debt in software development refers to the costs incurred from choosing an easy or limited solution now instead of taking longer-term approaches that would offer better results. Like financial debt, technical debt accrues interest over time in the form of extra work that must be completed in the future. It often results from hasty […]
Quality Assurance (QA) teams play an essential part of product development: making sure software is bug-free and meets desired quality standards before it reaches end users. While having one highly skilled QA tester on a team might seem like an asset that could offset less experienced testers, it’s essential that we explore how much of […]
Software testing is an integral component of modern software development, and must be undertaken rigorously if ensuring products of the highest quality is important. Read about the Gaps in current software testing practices. Not only can testing uncover any defects before reaching users but it can also ensure it fulfills its required specifications under various […]
Test automation has quickly become an indispensable element in modern software development, especially within DevOps environments. Its primary function is integrating testing throughout the software delivery lifecycle for faster feedback cycles and increased product quality. Traditional verification of software correctness was performed manually, an inefficient practice prone to human error that both delayed feedback to […]
Traditional software development models rely on comprehensive requirements documents as the cornerstone of project success, yet in today’s rapidly-evolving technological environment they may actually hinder rather than help. Enter Agile development–an approach which emphasizes flexibility and ongoing iteration over strict adherence to initially specified requirements. Agile has revolutionized how teams manage project uncertainties; making its […]
Software development professionals understand the value of code review as an essential element of quality assurance, to ensure code is not only functional but also clean and manageable. In parallel with code reviews, testing reviews have become an increasingly essential component of testing processes. Test review processes often go underappreciated when it comes to building […]
Quality Assurance is an integral component of the lifecycle of software development. It is a systematic review of engineering products and processes to identify and correct defects prior to the release of a product. QA processes are important in maintaining software standards by preventing mistakes, ensuring functionality works as expected, and validating that the software meets […]
