APPIUM, XCUITEST, ESPRESSO, AND MORE When it comes choosing what mobile testing tool is right for you, there is a huge array of options, each with different strengths and weaknesses. WHY SHOULD YOU DO MOBILE AUTOMATION IN THE FIRST PLACE? It’s clear that anyone making apps should test them. Failure to catch bugs or regressions can cost companies thousands of dollars a day, and releasing broken apps can frustrate and alienate your users. The cost of a bug in a mobile app can be much higher than a similar bug on a web app. Not

We’ve all been there. We get super excited to try out UI Testing and start to use it for all the app’s flows. And then one of the tests requires the user to be logged in. What do we do? Have a “test user” whose password never changes? Create a mock server? Forget the test entirely? There’s got to be something better! With just a little bit of code, we can stub out network data when running our UI Tests. How? With the magic of some “secret” XCTest APIs. A quick overview of what we

The Original Post The QA team starts testing a software/product and there are “way too many” defects…Every other scenario is failing, new flows are explored & clarifications sought. What would be the strategy now? It’s a complex application with tight schedule. Too many defects add cherry on the cake. The blame game starts. But at the end, development & QA are expected to work as a team & deliver the product/software. What are the options? Reject the build. But that would mean delay in delivery. Get into a war room, daily. It helps to triage

In the past years, software delivery has made a big step forward thanks to the implementation of continuous delivery. Quality Assurance is no exception, and the acceleration of the QA pipeline has helped shorten delivery cycles and bring higher quality software.   A fast and reliable QA pipeline is usually based on multi-level automation tests and stable continuous integration, which runs all of these tests on a daily basis against different test environments. Not long ago, setting up, configuring and maintaining a complete workflow, was a huge challenge. But innovations that are occurring in QA
