Software testing is a critical piece of any successful software development team’s process. We can categorize testing into functional testing and nonfunctional testing. Functional testing focuses on finding bugs, whereas nonfunctional testing focuses on verifying quality. This post describes how functional testing differs from nonfunctional test cases and how they maximize efficiency and avoid bottlenecks…
Appium Inspector is a tool for inspecting mobile application user interfaces (UIs) on Android and iOS platforms. It allows you to review and evaluate your mobile app’s elements (buttons, text fields, images, and so on) and see how they look on various devices. Appium Inspector also offers comprehensive details about each element, including its characteristics,…
Testing the functionality and usability of the application is a critical part of software development. There are many approaches to application testing methods, like unit testing, functional testing, end-to-end (E2E) testing, integration testing, performance testing, and more. Testing is usually conducted with a script and automation framework that can fish out bugs and inconsistencies throughout…
It’s 2024 and AI is now a normal part of our lives, and especially of our work as testers. And the estimations are that AI usage in software testing will increase over time.
