What can be challenges of Multi Device Testing : Read our Blog

With the growing end user computation options, compatibility testing is becoming a very important, yet challenging area in the last few years. Personal computers, laptops, MACs, tablets, smart phones are all becoming more prevalent; especially, mobile computing options are flooding the market place. Amidst all of this changing hardware and its associated software landscape, there is an increasing need for software applications to be omnipresent in all these options. This is not an easy scenario to handle from a software testing angle though, because of the number of combinations in which the application needs to be verified, in the limited resources and time on hand. I will be talking about the testing challenges that exist today, taking a specific example of testing for Android applications, and also discussing some mitigation strategies. The Android example used is just to help with better explanation; the larger point to remember is how these discussion points apply to your specific compatibility test scenarios and how to customize some of these solutions to help serve your requirements. Also to keep in mind is the scale of testing, as Android alone brings in so many variations to the table.

Localization Testing: An art

The Art of Localization Testing - Cost & Time Effectiveness using Optimization Techniques

Every organization aims at developing globally successful quality products within the cost and time parameters. Software testing being a major component takes considerable time during the software development cycle and hence a significant cost is attached to it. Talking further about the global adaptability of software i.e. Internationalization & Localization of product in multiple locales possesses a huge challenge in terms of limiting the time and cost attached to Software testing. 'How much' and 'Too much' localization testing has always been a big question for global software organizations.

During the course of my engagement in planning the localization testing services for our clients, we had devised certain approaches to cut down the time and hence cost. Before we start discussing them, let's try to find out the basic expectations related to the quality of any Localized Product, which are as follows:

- Software should be entirely localized (as applicable) correctly in respective locales
- Cultural appropriateness should be met
- UI correctness
- Functionally, the quality of a localized product should exactly match its counterpart product in English

Software Quality Assurance and Testing is growing.....

Software Testing Growth and its Market:

Software testing was introduced by Glenford J Myers (known as the father of software testing) in 1979. The main aim at that time was to separate verification from the rest of the coding process itself. His work was carried forward to the next level in the year 1988 by Dr. William C. Hetzel, who organized the first conference totally dedicated to 'Software Testing'. This article focuses on the present market for global software testing services.

The IT think tanks, specialists and bigwigs of theindustry consider it to be one of the most important tasks in the software devlopment process. In terms of quality engineering, one of the major targets to fulfil is meeting customer requirements, and above all, their expectations; this can be done only by making a defect-free product that is thoroughly tested. Business and top level management are aware that software testing is one of the most essential processes in the whole cycle to be completed; therefore, investment and capitalization is high. The market value of software testing has grown tremendously and will soar to new heights in the upcoming years.

The point to be mentioned here is that software testing service market is marked by increased outsourcing of testing services to leading service provider countries such as India. Recent study reveals that software testing industry is rapidly changing in both business and technology perspectives . The major factors from business point of view are cost reduction and better quality. According to Gartner, one of the leading research and advisory firm, "Independent testing - from business prospectives - is growing at 40-50 percent; it also includes a 35 percent growth in offshore testing services." US alone, the biggest giant and superpower, spends 59 billion dollars on software testing; out of this, 13 billion worth of work is outsourced to Asian countries.

Automated Software Testing an artcile by Knowledge Sharing Team

Automated Software Testing:

There are two approaches to perform software testing. One is manual testing where test cases are manually executed with different scenarios; the other is automation testing in which pre-set steps are executed using external tools. Today, many organizations are using ‘Agile Methodology’ to make their software processes more interactive and responsive, and thus, test automation becomes a requirement. Basically, it is a process to automate manual steps and tools are used to perform tests repeatedly against an application. The main purpose of software test automation is repeatable performance at lower price.

Software Test automation improves efficiency of a software testing process. We can automate various types of testing - functional testing, to check the application’s operations; regression testing, to determine the application’s behavior after sets of fixes have been made; exception testing, to verify application’s error handling capacity; performance testing, to assure various application characteristics like response time, speed, throughput, efficiency of the system. Stress testing and load testing check the robustness and determines the capacity of an application, respectively.

An organization needs to make right choices of tools and targeting areas for better automation benefits and Return on Investment (RoI). The key areas which must be automated first are: stable areas, high scenario based or redundant tasks, time consuming tasks, and repetitive test cases, which can be very boring to perform again and again manually and may cause human error.

Every technology has some advantages and disadvantages. The major advantages of automated software testing are: it is fast, reliable, comprehensive, reusable, and programmable. Manual testing takes a lot of time to create and execute test cases, whereas, in automated software testing, once the test script is ready, we can repeatedly execute test cases in comparatively lesser time duration and document in a more disciplined manner.

Cloud Testing: An article worth Sharing

Cloud Security And Its Solutions:

Cloud Security popularly known as cloud computing security covers both aspects of computing security and network security. Cloud security has become an important matter to address; considering its growth and prospect.Cloud Testingprovides affordable, on demand services.

It can be better said that, cloud commuting is not just a technological change but it is a social change. We are now considering that clouds have touched our daily life. The smart phones that we use, backs up users’ data on the cloud and it is being synchronized every moment. Internet browsers have already started backing up data on clouds and provide localized printing solution via clouds. We have also seen that various operating system (OS) provider companies have already started developing their OS fully customized to use the cloud. Many organizations’ have started providing cloud SQL services which help in creating relational databases.
Although cloud computing has many advantages, cloud security is still a big challenge which is restricting and delaying the cloud adoption by its customers. There are many cloud security concerns that need to be addressed.

One of the major issues is protection of client data and applications it uses on the cloud. The provider must ensure that their cloud infrastructure is securely protecting their client data and applications. Data is more vulnerable to be hacked when it is being processed. Resource allocation can be used to provide enhanced security for data. Multi-tenancy technology used by clouds enables sharing of resources for large pool of clients. There are chances that data may be leaked accidentally because of such multi-tenancy. Other aspect is, if a user deletes his data, it should be deleted from all the back-up data bases provided by clouds.
