Testing becomes critical in the fast-paced world of low code development, where creating a new screen can take just an hour. Traditional testing methods often extend beyond development time, especially with features like drag-click functionality. There's a temptation to skip these time-consuming steps for quicker delivery, but it's essential to remember that low code still involves code, and human errors can occur.
No code testing revolutionizes web and mobile app testing by enabling business users and non-technical personnel to automate tests without writing test scripts.
This document discusses challenges with quality assurance in agile software development and proposes a solution called "digital testing using cognitive approach". Some key points:
1. Traditional QA faces challenges keeping up with agile development cycles and diverse technologies. QA needs to evolve to facilitate faster delivery.
2. The proposed solution involves automating testing, using predictive analytics, parallel testing across devices, and involving QA earlier in the development cycle.
3. A "cognitive approach" uses machine learning, AI, and predictive analysis to optimize testing efforts and provide insights. This helps address issues like inadequate coverage, performance bottlenecks, and late involvement of users and testers.
Embracing autonomous testing is no longer merely an option but emerges as a strategic necessity for organizations committed to delivering superior software solutions within the dynamic contours of the contemporary tech landscape.

Measures in SQL (SIGMOD 2024, Santiago, Chile)Julian Hyde
SQL has attained widespread adoption, but Business Intelligence tools still use their own higher level languages based upon a multidimensional paradigm. Composable calculations are what is missing from SQL, and we propose a new kind of column, called a measure, that attaches a calculation to a table. Like regular tables, tables with measures are composable and closed when used in queries.
SQL-with-measures has the power, conciseness and reusability of multidimensional languages but retains SQL semantics. Measure invocations can be expanded in place to simple, clear SQL.
To define the evaluation semantics for measures, we introduce context-sensitive expressions (a way to evaluate multidimensional expressions that is consistent with existing SQL semantics), a concept called evaluation context, and several operations for setting and modifying the evaluation context.
