Every tester, one way or another, is familiar with all the nuances of early testing when he honestly reviews the stated requirements, architectural designs, and the rest of the documents. Also, he focuses on finding incomplete descriptions, and instructions that can lead to bugs and unanswered questions. Because of all […] Read More
The first thing to begin this material with is problem resolution, improving the structure of the product, and testing it. These are completely different things happening within the same development cycle. These types of testing activities are firmly connected but the fact is that modern testing code does not prevent […] Read More
As we know, heuristics is a special process of self-learning something specific. Heuristics techniques are a set of approaches to resolving specific dilemmas. To put it simply, if you look long into a design, you’ll stop paying attention to small defects of the graphical interface. In such a situation, you […] Read More
The development of products for airlines requires detailed work at all stages, to avoid the appearance of any bugs that can cause serious consequences: from financial losses to a damaged reputation. An important stage in the development of software for airlines is the quality work of the QA team, which […] Read More
Actually, it’s not quite a correct question: which tests exactly should (or shouldn’t) be automated. Instead, we have to ask more specific questions. For example, a good fact check would benefit from considering your current status, so that you don’t waste your time. Do I have enough information about a […] Read More
1. QA Mentor QA Mentor has a lot of awards in the software testing field. This company has headquarters in New York, and 313 global QA resources in 8 different countries. Its specialists provide more than 30 testing services, working in all time zones. This QA company has up to […] Read More
The development of an automation strategy is a challenging task. It is well known that the scope of software testing should be defined before making a decision about automation. The term “defined” means that testing is integrated into the software life cycle, that both test process itself and test cases […] Read More
The project should be configured & set up every day. Sometimes they say that some projects are so huge that their configuration cannot be edited once a day. Does this mean that they include more than 40 million lines of code forming the basis of Windows XP or Windows Server […] Read More
The human-computer interface (HCI) in modern computers can cover a wide variety of peripheral devices such as a keyboard, a mouse, a keypad, a speech interface, a touch screen monitor, a light pen, a scanner, and many others. Furthermore, in the case of the use of large production control systems […] Read More
A cost-effective way to extend applications is to use distributed computing. There are two main components of the network architecture: the server and the client. The network can have thousands of servers and tens of thousands of personal desktop computers, laptops, wireless and pocket clients, each of which connects to […] Read More
Configuration variations significantly complicate the testing. In particular, such complications can arise due to the use of peripheral devices. Each peripheral device comes with a manufacturer’s driver, which is selected from a set of drivers for different operating systems. That is why personal computers are mostly designed for use in […] Read More
A requirements analyst must: Identify requirements. The requirements for the software product do not lie in plain sight and do not wait for the analyst to come and collect them. A professional analyst helps users clearly define the system functions that they need to achieve business goals. For that to […] Read More
Expert assessments are used in one form or another in most software development projects. One of the tasks assigned to personnel of the quality assurance departments is to perform statistical sampling inspection, reading and marking the user or client documentation. This type of quality control is known as peer review. […] Read More
To ensure that rapid testing will take place throughout the lifecycle of a software development project, a variety of ways to increase its efficiency must be intensively used. There are several technologies that apply not only to the test process, but also to other processes within the development cycle. It […] Read More
If a tester is assigned to test a module, which performs the transformation of data based on a certain algorithm, the most rigorous approach involves the development of input and expected resultant data that will test features, test cases, and conditions for the occurrence of algorithm errors. For example, if […] Read More
The test manager is tasked with organizing and guiding the daily progress and monitoring the quality of testing using the rapid testing methodology. In small projects, this role can be performed by a project manager. In medium-sized projects, this job position can be called a “test leader”. In the case […] Read More
