With applications and digital products being launched and upgraded in real-time, organizations nowadays have become vigilant in regards to the business-critical requirement for ensuring performance and functionalities on a regular basis. Regression testing is a process in software testing to check whether the software is developed and tested earlier in the lifecycle. This process is mostly performed by code testing specialists involving multiple scenarios such as software enhancements, configurations, patches, etc. If we look at the larger picture, regression testing helps in ensuring the desired user experience while an application upgrades and evolves. Throughout the regression tests, coders develop code and test scenarios that will be used to test new code units. In this process, as soon as the new version of a software product is released, test cases are also executed early against the new version. This method would ensure that all the previously supported capabili...

Test Automation has become an indispensable part of every software development and testing project. Though, various industry studies show that 80% of test automation projects are failing while the other 20% are not yielding enough ROI.

With incredible growth in agile methodology, guidelines for test automation are explicitly momentous. While it is imperative to use effective techniques that produce a high return on investment (ROI), such approach works when one is aware of the several techniques available. Being aware of various strategies helps in finding out the suitable techniques for the current automation process. Let us have a look at the top significant strategies for Test Automation in Agile Backlog for Test Automation Process: A backlog for test automation helps in maintain efficiency during the testing process. It helps in getting a comprehensive overview of the recognized improvements and highlights. When the whole team becomes committed to quality and lists all the points down in the backlog with clarity, it becomes easier for developers and product owners to provide results faster. Tools are the Indispensable Means: Though frameworks and tools go hand-in-hand in providing effective autom...

Software testing consists of several challenges both in the manual as well as in automation. Let us understand the top 6 challenges associated with software testing: 1.Testing the whole application: It is extremely difficult to test each and every combination both in manual and in automation testing as there are millions of test combinations. If you start to try all these combinations, you will never be able to ship the product. 2.Tight schedules: There are times when you have to work way more than the actual working hours to conclude the task. All these tasks include writing, executing, automating, and reviewing the test cases. To deliver the right product at the right time, time management is crucial. 3.Lack of skilled testers: It is important to hire skilled resources as unskilled fellows may add more confusion than streamlining the testing work. This can result in an insufficient, incomplete, and ad-hoc testing all through the testing life cycle. 4.Regressi...
