Sometimes Excel, as a test management tool, seems to be the most cost-effective and simplest solution for your needs.

However, what happens when you have many environments to test against and the test case needs to be updated? How do you keep up with the ever-expanding number of environments to test while keeping the simplicity of Excel?

Join this session to learn how to streamline and optimize testing coverage while quickly executing tests both manually and via auto testing tools.

Dr. Tieren Zhou, Ph.D (LinkedIn profile) will provide models to achieve complete testing coverage with expansive numbers of environmental variables and permutations thereof.

Tieren will introduce two models in defining a test release coverage plan: Permutation vs. Street. With the permutation model, test cases can be defined and tested against a set of environmental variables where selected choices for the variables are permutated.

Tieren will also explain the value of the multidimensional street model. It is used for extreme flexibility and ease of operation, but unlike Excel, it is scalable and won’t require much maintenance.

Learn how TechExcel can assist you in building a foundation for more efficient, sustainable, and scalable testing by:

1. Organizing test assets in a centralized location
2. Reusing test assets for unlimited variations and combinations of environments
3. Standardizing processes for planning release and cycles to ensure product quality
4. Running metrics to not only measure product quality but quality prediction

If your automated test coverage is lower than you would like, you’re not alone. The industry average for end-to-end test coverage in 2022 is under 30%.

In this webinar, Artem will discuss the factors preventing the majority of companies from reaching desired test coverage.

Many companies have all of their resources completely bogged down in test maintenance. The maintenance on tests grows so quickly that at 350 tests, a full-time Engineer’s time is consumed to just maintain the tests.

This is the main reason why companies can’t achieve 100% test automation.

In this webinar, Artem Golubev will talk about the solution that latest no-code tool market trends including record-and-playback tools and completely codeless solutions provide.

The idea behind no-code or codeless automation is to require no prior coding experience. That means that any QA person or even any team member without an engineering background should be able to create and execute tests to validate business logic.

You will also learn how the latest technology available can shift how you create and maintain automated tests and help you easily reach your desired automation coverage.

Presenter: Artem Golubev (LinkedIn profile) CEO, testRigor is a co-founder of testRigor started his career 25+ years ago by building software for logistics companies. Since then he worked at companies like Microsoft and Salesforce where he learned about best practices and top technologies in QA.  His recent company testRigor graduated from Y Combinator, the top company accelerator, received a $5.2M investment from Silicon Valley VCs, grew 9X over the last 12 months acquiring customers like Netflix and IDT helping them to reduce the amount of test maintenance 200X and achieve their automation goals within months.

Throughout the testing industry, there is a fair amount of discussion about the reusability of automated test scripts. But that discussion is usually centered around how widely you can reuse scripts for functional testing after new code changes.

What about reusing test scripts across a wider array of testing
needs? Don’t you need to deploy specific point solutions to handle other types of tests?

In this webinar, Amanda Burma (LinkedIn profile) will show how creating tests once can provide you with four opportunities to use the same test assets, thereby increasing your efficiency fourfold.

You’ll learn how functional test scripts created using Appvance IQ (AIQ) can easily be redeployed for load testing, performance testing, and even security testing needs, eliminating the need for distinct point solutions in your testing toolset.

Join Amanda to see a demonstration of:

• AI-generated and codeless test scripts created for functional testing
• Simple repurposing of the scripts and deployment of them for load testing, performance testing, and security testing
• Test results generated through this highly efficient process

The pandemic changed how we live, work, and interact. And while we are happy to leave some of those changes behind as the world opens, some lessons are here to stay.

As we adjusted to changing work environments, we learned how to work with teams when we couldn’t be with them in person. We also learned what our co-workers’ families look like. In application quality—we learned how to work differently and still get the job done.

In this webinar, Eran Kinsbruner (Chief Evangelist Test Automation Products) and Steve Borielllo (Senior Engineering Services Architect) will discuss the top five things we learned working with leading global
companies throughout the pandemic. These tales from the field (and home offices) are not to be missed!

Eran will cover:

• Criticality of digital channels
• Remote testing and cloud services
• Testing tool choices to facilitate cross-team collaboration
• Contingency planning / Working through the unexpected
• Adjusting as you learn new information

Presenter: Eran Kinsbruner (LinkedIn profile) Mobile Technical Evangelist Perfecto,  and author of The Digital Quality Handbook: Guide for Achieving Continuous Quality in a DevOps Reality; & Continuous Testing for DevOps Professionals: A Practical Guide From Industry Experts has extensive experience in the mobile testing market. Prior to Perfecto, he was the mobile testing CTO at Texas Instruments and project manager at Matrix, and he co-invented a test-exclusion automated mechanism for mobile J2ME testing at Sun Microsystems.

Dev & QA teams across organizations are always looking for ways to achieve the holy grail of testing: high speeds and low costs. With the addition of simulators and emulators to the mobile testing industry, that dream of high-velocity testing has been more achievable than ever.

But how should testing teams make the most of these virtual devices?

What is the right balance between simulators, emulators, and the real devices that are still essential to achieving comprehensive mobile test coverage?

Join best-selling author & DevOps evangelist Eran Kinsbruner of Perfecto, to understand how to drive high-velocity testing with the right combination of real and virtual devices. Get insights into how to build a velocity-focused mobile testing strategy that still helps teams mitigate risk of escaped defects.

You’ll learn:

1. When to use simulators & emulators.
2. When to avoid virtual devices and use real devices instead.
3. Recommendations for optimizing every stage of the SDLC.
4. Plus, see a live demo of testing against both real and virtual devices in the cloud.

How should we measure the success of a test automation project: tests automated or bugs found? QA teams often struggle to balance resources to meet the testing requirements, to match the velocity of the dev team, and to certify the quality of the code.

In this webinar Kevin will show how AI-based testing fundamentally shifts not only how we test, but what we test.

By combining the domain knowledge of your experts with an expert-system AI, we’ll create an application-specific intelligence that can autonomously test your system without human oversight or assistance.

Now that you have the power to scale testing to any level, we can stop being testers and finally become quality assurers.

Join us to learn:

• How to focus on finding bugs not on how many tests we can automate
• That we can use artifacts in plain sight to train the AI on our business rules, validations, and behaviors
• There is deep metadata that the AI can exhibit which shows where the defect density is high, where performance is slow, and where the application is not being tested
• That the way we test will never be the same again.

In our last web seminar, Kevin discussed the value of measuring Application Coverage as a better success metric than Test Coverage.

In this web seminar, Kevin builds on this notion by providing a complete perspective on testing that positions your team, and your application, to maximize your impact.
