The expansion of cloud technology has made more and more organization embrace cloud services to run their processes. Effective cloud testing strategies ensure competent testing of various applications.  The Requirement for Cloud-Based Testing On-premise testing demands the availability of a dedicated infrastructure to inspect the security, performance, and availability of applications. With a massive increase in the quantity and complexity of business applications these days, dedicated infrastructure for testing can prove to be quite time-consuming and expensive. Organizations have no choice but to maintain and develop various in-house test environments that can imitate real-time situations and deliver them a proper understanding of quality applications.  In contrast, cloud-based testing solutions support enterprises to evaluate and test applications by leveraging the advantages associated with cloud technologies. The need for upfront capital expendit...

  Performance testing is crucial for applications to perform as expected in the real world. Business-critical applications need thorough testing to make sure that they can bear the stress of changing demands. However, the use of traditional performance testing requires a significant investment of time, money, and resources- serving as an obstacle to acceptance and leading some enterprises to limit the performance testing they undertake. Traditional in-house testing can no longer provide the necessary level of performance certainty necessary to complete in today’s universal marketplace. Cloud-based performance testing provides a way to test across platforms and geographies without slowing the time-to-market. Cloud-based performance testing ensures volume even in the extreme performance situations. By allowing the test teams to rapidly set up existing performance test scripts to cloud-based load generators, the load is generated on pre-configured systems provisioned in the cloud...

Technology trends such as mobile, cloud, social, analytics and IoT (Internet of Things) are changing the way enterprises are doing business. With the advent of making inroads into newer markets, the enterprises also need to meet the rising demand of the customers and that can only be achieved with superior experience and quick delivery. Companies have been investing significantly in order to build next-gen platforms / products using new technologies available in the market. Though, there is no assurance of stability, scalability, and speed. Poor performance or any kind of disruption can impact the brand image and customer loyalty immensely. For instance, if an e-commerce website is experiencing trouble with its performance, consumers are bound to opt for another channel. A good brand image once lost can face difficulties in bringing back its original brand image. Considering the fact that speed-to-market has become critical to success, enterprises should recognize that their busine...

The primary concern of the software industry is to lay increased emphasis on QA and Testing requirements for successful product development. Customers expect zero faults and 110% performance from every project. To get accurate results and zero defect, test automation is essential. Usage of test automation in agile testing helps to increase accuracy and productivity.  Software testing is an ongoing process in SDLC. Depending on the SDLC method, testing is implemented at the initial stage. Traditional testing requires huge, dedicated infrastructure and resources that are used intermittently. With the ever-increasing complexities involved with every business, it becomes difficult for organizations to maintain an in-house QA team that can imitate the real-time environments.  Creating new test environment for every single project is a laborious process. Another shortcoming of traditional testing is that certain application domains require extensive resources for testin...

Software testing is a process of executing an application or a program with the determination to find errors and bugs. It is also termed as the process of verifying that an application or the software program is able to meet the business requirements or not. In this process, testers assess the design and development of an application or a program thoroughly. After scrutinizing each step of the program or the application, the errors are pointed out, which is then rectified by the development team.  Independent software testing comprises of a group of experts whose main focus is to work separately from the software developers and spot the quality issues. It involves an exhaustive check-up of the program or the application so that the bugs can be identified within the first few steps. This technology has brought a change in the regular testing procedure. It is carried out with an innovative technology and a continuous R&D in order to bring 100% results.  Choosing a...
