With the fierce competition in the business sphere, it's paramount to have strategic advantage. However, the task apparently seems to be big challenge since an enterprise often grapples with countless core & non-core business objectives. It has been observed that in order to meet the product release date, often testing time is considerably reduced; this greatly hampers the quality of the product. To ensure good-quality product release, most companies today prefer to outsource their software testing assignments offshore.             Software Quality Assurance is indeed a positive way to accomplish the ultimate goal of customer satisfaction. Every due care must be taken to locate the bugs in the product and fix the same. Sometimes, a bug is located beneath several functional layers of the product and its effect is minimal on the performance of the product. However, there are certain bugs, which are present on the surface and have major effects such

How to Make Software Quality Assurance More Realistic

A constant increase is noted in the number of enterprises integrating software QA as part of the development cycles. Also, many companies are adopting test driven development approach (TDD) to enhance quality, efficiency and productivity. But a number of reports have highlighted how the software QA strategies of many organizations fail despite putting time, resources and funds. Several experts have thought the software testing industry needs a reality check in order to thrive in upcoming years. According to these experts, software QA industry, just like manufacturing industry, must explore innovative ways to meet the constant changes in test automation tools, testing methodologies and application architecture. At the same time, each organization also needs to understand how to make its QA strategy more realistic and effective. 1. Identify Key Elements of Software Testing: While making the testing strategy, you must identify the key elements of software QA like test strategy,

To ensure flawless user experience, it is an absolute essential to test the web applications. Constant changes have to be made to applications as well as websites; even the number of browsers supporting are increasing continuously. These facilitate the necessity of having efficient as well as effective test automation solution so that on-going testing is made possible which leads to rapid bug isolation and ultimately exceptional performance. The open source toolset called Selenium enables efficient as well as effective GUI or Graphical User Interface test automation for web applications. This set contains various software tools, all of which have various approaches in support of test automation. However, mostly engineers focus on one or at the most two tools to meet their project's needs. But learning about all of them offers a person with various options to approach varying problems since each has particular roles to play. Using this tool offers a multitude of benefits. S

Why Selenium is becoming so popular?   A number of recent reports have highlighted the rise in the use of Selenium as a software testing framework for internet applications. Despite being a portable framework, Selenium enables QA engineers to write test scripts in a wide range of programming languages including C#, Java, PHP, Perl, Ruby, Python and Groovy. The testing professionals can further use the record/playback tool provided by Selenium to write test scripts without learning any new programming language.  The open source framework further makes it easier for testers to evaluate the performance of a web application by running tests on some of the widely used web browsers. Major Advantages of Using Selenium for Web Application Testing Supports Multiple Languages and Test Frameworks While using Selenium, QA engineers have option to choose their preferred programming language and test framework. At present, Selenium supports several widely used p

But from business perspective, software testing is one of the most critical and challenging tasks among all unless it is handled by right person. In order to develop new software, every organization use to follow Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC). This methodology has its own phases from feasibility study to maintenance. Among those phases, Software Testing is one of the most important phases. Whenever any product is going to launch, the first thing is to verify and validate the overall functionality from different perspectives. With the help of software testing services, it is easy to identify the primary risk factors. But if we don't identify the risks fact
