Dynamic Testing: Your Complete Guide to Runtime Software Testing
Every developer has been there, our code looks perfect on paper, passes all static checks, and seems bulletproof. Then the production cause hits, and suddenly everything falls apart under real user behaviour. The gap between “code that looks right“ and “code that works right“ is where dynamic testing shines. In this blog, we will learn…

What is Negative Testing?
Most software testing aims to verify whether a system is functioning as intended. This is what is referred to as positive testing, or testing the "happy path." But what happens when users enter in the wrong input, skip required steps, or use your application in a way that you did not expect? That’s where negative…

Quality Assurance vs Quality Control in Software Engineering
In software product development, many teams tend to ignore quality metrics and focus more on quantity. Such teams face challenges when building for production. They end up pushing to production very low-quality software that is filled with bugs. These bugs alone irritate and drive away product users. In 2022, research done by the Consortium for…

Introduction To Selenium Software Testing
In the field of agile development, software testing can be a difficult task. Much of the exhaustive testing is conducted manually, which can slow release schedules, as well as make errors more likely. Selenium is a great fit here. Selenium is an open-source tool that allows you to automate web browsers, which, one could argue,…

What is a Flaky Test? Causes, Impacts & How to Deal with Them
In software development and automated testing, consistency really matters. One of the most frustrating barriers that developers and QA engineers encounter is a little something we call flaky tests: tests that pass or fail at random times with no changes to the code. These googly eyed tests tend to do the most damage and can…
