Booking with Confidence: User-Driven Testing Tips for Holiday Home Platforms

Something a thing that unites every beginner and expert is that they keep learning. No matter where you are in your professional journey, there is always more to know. Our team constantly studies the masterworks of software testing services. But the best insights come from hands-on experience. So, let us share a couple of QA wisdom nuggets from a particular case – live testing a holiday home booking platform.

Testing in Production

Executing tests in a live environment is both dangerous and rewarding. Testing alongside real users’ operations can activate errors, freeze the system, compromise security, etc. At the same time, checking the platform in a test or staging environment can’t perfectly replicate authentic scenarios. So while testing in production has significant risks, when done professionally, it offers some invaluable benefits:

Software Customization & QA – The Best Combo for a Quality Project

What connects octopuses and software development? No, it is not the need for extreme brains to operate successfully (octopuses have nine). It is the ability to learn, adapt, and change to fit the ecosystem around. And this talent has become paramount for companies that want to lead the IT market. The software world is oversaturated to a point where users tend to pick an option that stands out, be it via UI, unique features, or a pleasant “vibe”. And a great way to grab a customer’s attention is customization. With it, you can gain more clients and tailor the product to your mission. A customized project means authentic UX and precise business goals. And to leverage the power of customization, exhaustive software quality assurance testing is to be a part of the journey.

Taxi Booking App Testing: A Quick Guide

As a part of a taxi app project, you are well aware of the amount of resources needed to build such a product. Without diving into technical details, remember:
  • Uber’s “God View” incident that revealed locations of high-profile individuals.

The Era of the Customer: How QA Helps Users Fall in Love with Your B2B Software

Your feature-rich, functionally- and UI-perfect software won’t last if users’ minds go blank when using it. Client expectations for UX have migrated from the B2C sector. Thus sparking enthusiasm around customer-centricity in the B2B field. Inherently complex, B2B projects’ CX scores are below average. And in 2023, 80% of consumers prioritize usability. So even intricate solutions, e.g., procurement software, ERPs, etc., must be intuitive, easy to use, and user-friendly. Securing these three elements in your product means developing with consumers at the core of any action. You can’t make users your business’ CEOs.

QA Automation as a Key to Avoid Problems with Software in Production

By Dmitriy Zholudev, AQA Lead at QA Madness If you’re reading this, you must be a software developer. It doesn’t necessarily mean you write code using programming languages; maybe, you take another position in a team – a Business Analyst, Designer, QA Engineer, Project Manager, etc. If you order/buy software, license, games, tools, or devices, in a way, you’re also a software developer. How’s so? You contribute to creating jobs for people who make all those things: for programmers, managers, software testers, and so on. As a regular user, do you want the phone or application you bought yesterday to work well today, tomorrow, and for the next few years? Do you want the chair you made yesterday to be useful tomorrow or next year? Well, laptops and chairs are surely fun to talk about, but being more specific, we are interested in software development in its primary understanding: writing programming code and testing it (via ...
