Software testing is essential if you want to release a product that works as supposed. However, some teams rely on developers testing their code, which isn’t the best solution. Those who understand the significance of professional expertise sometimes start looking ...

The goal of risk-based testing is to concentrate testing on key functions and spend more time on them. It is possible to manage the test process through intelligent evaluation and convey the predicted implications of actions taken by combining the focused process with metrics. Risk is the occurrence of an unknown event that has a positive or negative impact on a project's measured success criteria. It could be something that happened in the past, something that is happening now, or something that will happen in the future. These unforeseen events might have an impact on an entire project's cost, business, technical, and quality goals.

What Is Risk-Based Testing?

A risk-based testing approach is a method of software testing that is based on risk likelihood. It entails analyzing the risk based on software complexity, business criticality, frequency of use, and probable defect areas, among other factors. Risk-based testing prioritizes testing of software program aspects ...

Testing in production might sound like a developer or tester’s worst nightmare. However, in the tech industry, testing in production is becoming more and more prevalent even though many people are still skeptical about the whole issue. But it’s important to be clear on what this process is to avoid misunderstandings. Testing in production does not imply delivering untested features and hoping for the best. Hope and luck are not strategies. A robust QA plan must still ensure that testing occurs early in the development stage while leveraging manual software testing and other automated testing methodologies. That is to say, in-production testing is meant to supplement rather than replace testing in a pre-production environment. The execution of software tests in a live environment is referred to as production testing. Because it reflects the real world, it is a good approach to software testing. Due to variable configurations, controlled settings, and the absence of other reali...

The traditional interactions between patients, doctors, and pharmaceutical companies are no longer relevant in the digital age. See your doctor, get a prescription, take your meds, and report back to your doctor if you experience any side effects. This was the cycle throughout the treatment period. But during these unprecedented times of digital transformation, technology is driving change and innovation in the healthcare industry. Electronic systems hold a vast amount of patient data, and they are being adopted by an increasing number of medical facilities. Digital health services such as telemedicine, chatbots for patient triage, AI-enabled medical devices, and electronic health records are reshaping how patients engage with health professionals, how data is shared among providers, and how treatment plans and health outcomes are decided and administered.

The Importance of eHealth Software Testing

In line with global digitization, healthcare institutions are increasingly ...

The media and entertainment industry is on the rise. In a way, we can say something like this about many niches.

Out of all the test artifacts, there is a one software tester encounters every day. It is a bug report – a document describing a problem, its severity and priority, and the steps that allow reproducing this problem. Using bug reports, developers can quickly identify what part of code works incorrectly and fix it. A well-written bug report guarantees efficient cooperation between a developer and a QA team. Therefore, creating good bug reports is one of the most important skills for a software tester. So how to make a bug report that will make developers happy? We’ll share some tips based on the experience of our QA specialists.

How to Write a Good Bug Report

When it comes to documentation writing, there is a universal rule you can use: make it simple. The simpler, the better. However, simple doesn’t mean short. Bug reports should feature the details that let a reader understand the nature of a defect. In other words, there should be enough information to se...

EdTech services are becoming more widely used by both academic and corporate sectors. The digitalization of education started a while ago, and it gained a powerful boost in 2020. Due to the circumstances, schools, universities, and companies were to adapt their learning and training curriculums to the available online methods. Despite inconveniences and inequality concerns, this experience reminded (and to some, revealed) the true potential of educational technology software. The present climate opens immense possibilities before EdTech software companies. However, the competition also becomes more intense. The creation of a product that will attract attention comes with thorough research, careful implementation of logic and features, and, of course, lots of testing. Our CTO has already shared some information about ...
