Test automation has long been dominated by script-based solutions. While for many years those solutions have served their purpose and helped us deliver higher quality applications to our users, the complexity of modern applications and higher expectations of quality require us to take a different approach.

Test automation can no longer be restricted to the most technically skilled members of the team, and it can’t be limited to functional quality either.

Join Fernando Mattos (LinkedIn profile) the leader in low-code test automation—for this upcoming webinar where Fernando will share the five most relevant and practical ways in which low-code test automation will help you improve productivity and clear time to focus on higher impact areas of your business.

In this interactive webinar you will:

1. Promote team collaboration and a culture of quality
2. Get more from test automation with less effort, money, and tears
3. Create a test strategy that ensures the highest level of digital customer experience

Whether your project is agile or not, it is critical that you practice good requirement and/or user story management.

Requirements and user stories do not just exist by themselves. Instead, they are linked to other artifacts such as test cases and test sets, scenarios and/or acceptance criteria, code and design components, tasks, risks, and actions.

Requirements and user stories also change during the course of a project and over the lifecycle of an application. Some requirements or user stories originate from user requests, some evolve from bug reports or issues, and some are even enhancements to existing functionalities.

A good requirement/user story management tool must support all these aspects of features.

This webinar will demonstrate how the requirement / user story component of Rommana ALM supports all these aspects and more.

The intent is to help you understand true requirement and user story management so that you can make an informed decision regarding tool selection and tool adoption.

If you are already using a tool to manage your requirements and/or user stories, this webinar should help you customize your tool to support all these aspects.

According to the Gartner® 2022 Market Guide for AI-Augmented Software-Testing Tools, “By 2027, 80% of enterprises will have integrated artificial intelligence (AI)-augmented testing tools into their software engineering toolchain,” up from just 10% today. If you haven’t started with AI yet, doing so quickly is probably daunting.

So, where do you start?

In this webinar, we’ll discuss how to adopt AI-augmented technology to support your test automation journey. We’ll show how, with AI, you get unheard of application coverage without having to complete every test case. And we’ll provide you with a blueprint that delivers a 360-degree view of your application’s quality with half the resources in half the time.

Whatever your current level of automation, from none to
100%, adding AI to your coverage will drive down the costs and delays associated with automation, drive out those unforeseen risks and errors, and change how you think about application quality.

In this interactive webinar you will:

1. How to get started with real AI-based test automation
2. What autonomous testing is and how it can help you advance more quickly
3. How you get better application coverage by writing fewer test scripts
4. And why AI turns QA automation engineers into a strategic IT resource

See how far you can advance your quality program in 2023!

Pull requests have become the No. 1 undiagnosed bottleneck in engineering—and we have the data to prove it. After analyzing 1,000,000 pull requests, LinearB has uncovered CI/CD’s greatest weakness and—thankfully—a eureka moment that will forever change the developer experience: Continuous Merge.

Here’s the dirty little secret: not all PRs are created equal. They don’t all need the same level of effort, and some of them don’t need any human intervention at all—it’s just a matter of using data and context to know which is which, and creating intelligent automation workflows to handle PRs appropriately.

In this session, Luke  will dive deep into how to change your processes so your team can adopt Continuous Merge and other practices in order to merge and release faster, with higher quality.

Presenter: Luke Kilpatrick (LinkedIn profile) Director of Developer Experience  started as web developer in 1996, transitioning to building developer programs in 2010 with VMware. Luke has managed and spoken at developer events around the world with highlights being Atlassian Appweek, Nutanix .NEXT, DevRelCon and Data’s Future Developer Summit.

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
