Testing Hourglass at Jira Frontend - by Alexey Shpakov, Sr. Developer @ Atlas...
Alexey Shpakov presents on testing in Jira Frontend. He discusses the testing pyramid with unit, integration, and end-to-end tests. He then introduces the concept of a "testing hourglass" which adds deployment and post-deployment verification to the pyramid. Key aspects of each type of test are discussed such as using feature flags, monitoring for flaky tests, and gradual rollouts to reduce risk.
I dream of ISPWeb
The document discusses unit testing SharePoint apps. It introduces the speaker and outlines that he will cover unit testing 101, tools for unit testing SharePoint apps, and examples. Some key points that will be discussed are how unit testing can reduce pain and improve productivity by shortening the feedback cycle. The document also notes that while SharePoint may seem untestable, isolation frameworks can help test SharePoint code in isolation without touching a live system. Finally, the document lists some resources for isolation frameworks and invites questions.
I Smell A RAT- Rapid Application Testing
This document discusses various techniques for rapid application testing (RAT) such as unit testing, integration testing, smoke testing, system testing, regression testing, performance testing, and test-driven development. It emphasizes automating test plans and test execution to allow tests to be run multiple times for little additional cost. The goal of testing is to balance cost and risk by reusing automated tests that are fast and good predictors of issues while throwing more tests at critical areas.
The thought process of non technical person while approaching
Manual and automation testing each have their own advantages and disadvantages. Automation testing using Selenium is commonly preferred because it can test multiple browsers, improve quality by reducing missed test cases, is free to use so maintenance is easy, saves time by allowing tests to be rerun quickly, works with any programming language, and allows tests to run in parallel. Selenium is a good choice for projects where compatibility, quality, maintenance costs, time limitations, or scalability are concerns.
When you get lost in api testing #ForumPHP
If you are not writing tests yet, you should start. Tests will improve the quality of your code, reduce bugs and probably force you to think more about design and quality. Actually, the hardest thing is to start and figure out which type of tests to write.
So you start researching and you find a lot of different materials and get even more confused.Even when you decide what type of tests to use, it can be hard to decide how to test some specific logic in your app.
Don’t give up! We have some tips we learned along the way that will hopefully make your life easier. In this talk you will hear about different test types and when to use them. We’ll also show some tools for checking quality of your test.
Testing Tools with AI
This document discusses the evolution of software testing and how artificial intelligence is being applied to improve testing. It provides examples of intelligent testing tools that use AI to reduce flaky tests, increase test coverage, prioritize test cases, and predict failures. Such tools apply techniques like machine learning algorithms, computer vision, and natural language processing to testing tasks. The document also compares several popular AI-based testing tools and their pricing structures.
Bringing Quality Design Systems to Life with Storybook & Applitools
** Full webinar recording: https://youtu.be/R6WnEzlMHac **
Bringing design systems and component libraries to life can be a large, challenging process without the right tools. On top of that, maintaining a high level of quality throughout those systems brings its own challenge.
While there’s no shortage of ways to manually create a design system from scratch, doing so can be time consuming and can lead to technical debt when the system itself isn’t itself in a structure.
Storybook is a tool for developers that helps bring design systems and component libraries to life, providing structured tooling and a web dashboard. It gives those developers, and even designers, a way to focus on each individual component while being able to see the system from a higher perspective.
On top of that, Applitools is an automated Visual Testing solution that easily stacks right on top of Storybook with the Storybook Eyes SDK. With a single command, Applitools provides full test coverage for each component of your design system.
Join Developer Advocate, Colby Fayock, as he walks through:
How to take advantage of using Storybook to build scalable design systems
How Applitools makes automating the testing of those components easy
How to focus on building great experiences while automating quality checks with visual testing
Automated Testing for Web Applications - Wurbe #36
This document discusses automated testing for web applications. It defines software testing and different types of testing like unit, integration, functional, and end-to-end testing. Automated testing is recommended because it saves time and money, improves accuracy, allows testing at scale, and improves team morale. Low hanging fruits for automation include unit, integration and functional testing, and setting up continuous integration. The document provides examples of testing a typical application with MongoDB, Tornado and SMTP and concludes with advice to think about testing from the beginning and automate where possible.

What You are Doing Wrong with Automated Testing
This document discusses several anti-patterns that are commonly seen in automated testing practices. It identifies anti-patterns such as relying primarily on UI tests, using screen recorders to build tests, ignoring intermittent low priority bugs, having all tests run as a monolith test suite, having testers write automated tests instead of developers, and thinking that achieving 100% test coverage equals high quality tests. For each anti-pattern, it provides examples of why they look like good solutions on the surface but introduce problems related to maintenance, fragility, dependencies, ownership, and not actually guaranteeing test quality.

Insoft training day_1
This document provides an agenda for a presentation on automated testing. It begins with introductions and background information. It then outlines the roadmap and prerequisites for manual testing. The document discusses Java programming basics and moves to discussing what automated testing is, when it can be started, what can be automated, and potential issues. It concludes by highlighting the benefits of automated testing such as reduced time and costs, increased coverage, and supporting agile releases.
Justin Ison
The document discusses automating exploratory testing by creating an app crawler that can emulate user interactions, test across different platforms, languages, resolutions and orientations. Some key points:
- Automated exploratory testing is needed due to shorter release cycles and less manual testing time.
- The author created an app crawler that can capture elements, images, errors, exceptions, performance data and replay tests across platforms.
- Challenges include handling authentication, detecting unique locators, and rescuing apps that get stuck.
- The crawler detects languages, monitors logs and exceptions, and uses Applitools for image validation to further automate the process.
- The goal is to help fill quality gaps
Nimbuzz advanced vs novice testers
The document compares an advanced test engineer to a novice test engineer. An advanced test engineer executes tests from an end user perspective and provides additional testing coverage using product and domain knowledge. They are connected to real users and observe market conditions. A novice test engineer only executes assigned tests from the office without considering different environments or user perspectives.
Architecting apps - Can we write better code by planning ahead?
Creating a successful app is like erecting a house. The building part can become laborious, boring and dangerous at times, especially if very little attention is paid to the planning process and no blueprints are to be found; in some cases it leads to disastrous outcomes, unhappy stakeholders and overrunning costs.
The initial phase of understanding the client’s idea and expectations is the most critical and yet the least talked about: translating requirements into a well structure document is what makes or breaks an app – similar to creating a good architecture document before commencing work on a building.
In this talk, Paul will talk about the things a team should implement before writing a single line of code (diagrams, sketches, prototypes, etc) and affix yet another acronym to the corporate bingo list: DDD (Documentation-Driven Design).
Challenges to Effective Performance Testing in CI
https://agiletestingdays.us/session/challenges-to-effective-performance-testing-in-ci/
Performance testing in CI is a must. If you are looking to invest effort and money in it, you’ll better take certain things into account from day one.
How do you manage to run a performance test against each service of your system? And what about running almost every day, all the tests? It's essential to take into consideration important aspects from the beginning to get the most out of it. Yes, it's a big effort, but it’s worth it. We want to share our experience and lessons learned from working with different teams in charge of maintaining tests and the infrastructure for continuous integration focused on the performance testing tasks.
[Paul Holland] Trends in Software Testing
Trends in Software Testing: There has been a slow realization among the top executives that simply outsourcing testing to the lowest bidder is not resulting in a sufficient level of quality in their software products. In this session, Paul Holland will discuss how American companies are starting to reconsider “factory school” testing and are no longer satisfied with the current situation of simply outsourcing their “checking”. As the development side of software continues its dramatic shift toward Agile development – what role can testers have and how can testers still add value?

Developers Border Line: Unit Testing
Unit testing involves developers writing short tests of individual units or modules of code as they develop software. These tests automatically validate that each piece of the software performs as intended. Benefits of unit testing include finding bugs earlier, simplifying integration, facilitating change, and encouraging good design. Developers should write tests early and often, refactor code frequently to keep it simple, and fix bugs as soon as they are discovered. Checklists can help ensure unit tests cover important functionality.
Testing softvamp techno solutions technical interview questions freshers (1)
This document lists 30 technical interview questions for software testing focused on topics for testers with little experience. The questions cover testing terms and concepts like ad hoc testing, interface testing, reliability testing, defect clustering, the pesticide paradox, and differences between testing types like outsourced versus crowdsourced. Additional questions address inspection meetings, defining defects, bugs, errors and failures, prioritizing issues, and the bug life cycle.
Tech Talk
Usability testing involves testing a product on real users to evaluate how usable it is. Key things to evaluate include how efficiently users can complete tasks, how many mistakes they make, what they remember, and their emotional responses. To conduct usability testing, test subjects are recruited and sessions are scheduled. The tester gives tasks to complete while recording the session. Issues are identified and fixes are implemented before retesting to evaluate improvements. The process then repeats to continuously improve usability.
Ian Agustiawan - Tech Days
This document discusses quality assurance and testing software. It begins with an introduction to Ian Agustiawan and his background. It then covers topics like why testing is important, how to plan and manage tests using Microsoft Test Manager, ensuring software quality, and dealing with common testing challenges around integration and finger pointing. The document provides examples of large software failures that could have been prevented with better testing. It demonstrates MTM 2013 and how to track quality. The conclusion is that while 100% bug-free software is impossible, testing is about ensuring quality and rich planning tools can help testers stay ahead of developers.
My journey as a developer
The document describes the author's journey as a software developer and how they learned to release high quality software frequently through adopting test-driven development and other practices. It starts with the author developing software without tests, which led to bugs and maintenance issues. They then learned about unit testing and test-first development, which improved code quality and reduced bugs. Later, they added integration, UI, and behavior-driven tests. Adopting continuous integration and continuous delivery allowed for automated testing and frequent releases. This approach helped catch bugs, improve communication, and deliver working software more efficiently.

It discusses what software testing is, why it is necessary, and different types of testing like smoke testing, regression testing, and formal testing. It also covers the software development life cycle. The document compares manual and automation testing and discusses advantages and disadvantages of each. It provides details on Selenium, a popular tool for automation testing, including features of Selenium IDE, WebDriver, and Grid. The overall purpose is to introduce various software testing concepts and an automation testing tool.
Solving the 3 Biggest Questions in Continuous Testing
Software testing tools are evolving. More testing frameworks are emerging through the open source community and commercial vendors. In addition, we’re starting to see the rise of machine-learning (ML) and artificial intelligence (AI) in testing solutions.
Given this evolution, it is important to map the tools that match both the practitioners’ skills and their testing types. When referring to the testing practitioners, we mainly look at three different personas:
-The business tester
-The software developer in test (SDET)
-The software developer
These practitioners are tasked with creating, maintaining, and executing unit tests, build acceptance tests, integration, regression, and other nonfunctional tests.
In this webinar led by Perfecto’s Chief Evangelist, Eran Kinsbruner, you will learn the following:
-How should testing types be dispersed among the three personas and throughout the DevOps pipeline?
-What tools should each of these three personas use for the creation and execution of tests?
-What are the key benefits to continuous testing when mapped correctly?

Testing concepts ppt
Testing involves finding errors in a program. The goal is to assume a program contains errors and test to find as many as possible. Different testing techniques include white box testing by developers and black box testing by testers. Testing levels include unit, integration, system, and user acceptance testing. Developers and testers have different goals - developers want code to work while testers try to make code fail. Good development practices from a tester's view include doing own acceptance tests, fixing bugs, writing helpful error messages, and not artificially adding bugs. Good relationships between project managers, developers and testers help ensure quality.

5 Steps to Jump Start Your Test Automation
With the acceleration of software creation and delivery, test activities must align to the new tempo. Developers need immediate feedback to be efficient and correct defects as those are introduced. The path to achieving this vision is to build a reliable and scalable continuous test solution.
All beginnings are hard. Having a well-defined plan outlining the approach for your organization to create test automation is key to ensure long term success. Join Diego Molina, Senior Software Engineer at Sauce Labs as he discusses:
The importance of setting up the team correctly from the start
Choosing the right Testing Framework for your organization
Identifying the right scenarios and workflows to test
Learning to avoid common pitfalls at the beginning of the transformation journey

Agile Testing Pasadena JUG Aug2009
Automated and agile testing techniques and tools can help teams get software to a "DONE" state. Key aspects include:
- Writing automated unit, integration, and other tests to validate functionality and catch bugs early. This includes techniques like test-driven development.
- Leveraging continuous integration to run tests automatically on each code change to prevent regressions and catch issues quickly.
- Maintaining a balance of test types from unit to acceptance level while focusing on automation to make testing efficient and free up humans for more investigative tasks.
Making the Unstable Stable - An Intro To Testing
Does it always seem like bugs you've fixed keep coming back? Does it seem like when you fix one bug, two more crop up? What if I were to tell you there's a better way?
In this presentation, we're going to explore how to make a code base more stable by using automated testing. To start, we'll explore the business case of why you should be writing tests by looking at industry studies and personal experience. From there, we'll look at the fundamentals of testing by talking about the pros/cons of unit, integration, and UI testing. Finally, we'll look at some resources to learn how to write tests.
Intended for developers who are new to testing, by the end of this presentation, you will understand why you should write tests, and will have the concepts and tools to get started.
Prerequisites
Some knowledge with an Object-Oriented language would be beneficial, but not required.
How to Leverage AI to Enhance UI Testing
The document discusses how AI and machine learning can enhance UI/UX testing by leveraging AI. It notes that software development is getting faster but testing needs to keep up. Test automation coverage is still too low and testing is getting more complex. Organizations are turning to AI/ML to support faster changes. The future of testing with AI/ML could increase testing speed by 90% or more and reduce costs by up to 50% while finding 30% more defects before production. Integrating visual AI into testing can help automate more of the testing process through techniques like visual regression testing and detecting visual bugs.

St 1.2
Software testing verifies and validates that a program meets requirements and works as expected. It involves testing for defects according to principles like early testing and defect clustering. Exhaustive testing is impossible so testing aims to reduce the probability of undiscovered defects, though finding no defects does not prove correctness. Testing approaches depend on context and independent testing is most effective at finding failures.
Testing concepts

Removing Uninteresting Bytes in Software Fuzzing
Imagine a world where software fuzzing, the process of mutating bytes in test seeds to uncover hidden and erroneous program behaviors, becomes faster and more effective. A lot depends on the initial seeds, which can significantly dictate the trajectory of a fuzzing campaign, particularly in terms of how long it takes to uncover interesting behaviour in your code. We introduce DIAR, a technique designed to speedup fuzzing campaigns by pinpointing and eliminating those uninteresting bytes in the seeds. Picture this: instead of wasting valuable resources on meaningless mutations in large, bloated seeds, DIAR removes the unnecessary bytes, streamlining the entire process.
In this work, we equipped AFL, a popular fuzzer, with DIAR and examined two critical Linux libraries -- Libxml's xmllint, a tool for parsing xml documents, and Binutil's readelf, an essential debugging and security analysis command-line tool used to display detailed information about ELF (Executable and Linkable Format). Our preliminary results show that AFL+DIAR does not only discover new paths more quickly but also achieves higher coverage overall. This work thus showcases how starting with lean and optimized seeds can lead to faster, more comprehensive fuzzing campaigns -- and DIAR helps you find such seeds.
- These are slides of the talk given at IEEE International Conference on Software Testing Verification and Validation Workshop, ICSTW 2022.
