This seems like a silly question. Obviously, developers need to make sure their builds are stable before sending them on to the testing team. So yes, developers must at least taste test their applications. But what we’re really asking is whether developers should conduct rigorous testing, complete with defect reporting, debugging, and methodology selection – [...]
At the time of this writing, Euro 2016 is still going on. Even still, it's possible to extract some valuable lessons from the results thus far. Many of the favored teams continue to underperform, despite having the ‘star’ players, huge budgets and stacked decks. Countries like England and Belgium, for example, were expected to reach [...]
The division of labor couldn’t be clearer: Quality assurance professionals are supposed to test and report bugs. Software developers are supposed to build and fix code. Getting a product ready for launch might require hundreds (or thousands) of back-and-forth exchanges to fix all defects. However, that’s how the industry is set up. But what [...]
A few years ago, we wrote an article about The Grid – an artificial intelligence (AI) platform that could build custom designed websites from scratch. On the surface, The Grid seems like a potential threat to web developers and graphic designers. In fact, this technology poses an existential threat to anyone working in IT – [...]
We’re happy to announce that the online version of Testuff now comes with an overview screen. Because this dashboard already exists in the desktop client of our software testing suite, you might be asking – “So what’s the big deal?” Well, first and foremost, the dashboard creates a more unified experience across both platforms: Some [...]
We are always talking about how we work for you. For the tester. Well, it’s true... we do think of you when planning our road map. Every feature, every enhancement, every testing service – they were all planned to help you with your testing. This has made us think about all of you out [...]
In a recent email exchange with a long-time Testuff user, we learned that he wasn't using one of the main screens in our platform. In fact, he wasn't even paying attention to that screen. After digging a little deeper, we discovered that several others were in the same boat. This surprised us given the usefulness [...]
We all write code, even in a relatively short project, for quite a long time. It isn't just the first few days/weeks (sometimes months...) of the main writing period, but rather also the additions down the road, the fixes, and the patches. This means that the code gets "dirty" with time, no matter how "clean [...]
From initial concept to final launch, each product you develop must undergo countless tests to ensure that it is ready for market. And our Test Management platform is designed to help you analyze everything from the GUI to the security to the functionality of every application your team builds. But there are times when you [...]
A few years ago we wrote: “In a life of a company, there is no real difference between December 31st and January 1st…. It is in our minds that this date, of the end of a year, has any real meaning. We will work on January 1st (yep, we will) the same way we did [...]
