What is Regression Testing? Definition, Tools & How to Get Started
What is regression testing? Regression testing is a software testing practice that ensures an application still functions as expected after any code changes, updates, or improvements. Regression testing is responsible for the overall stability and functionality of the existing features. Whenever a new modification is added to the code, regression testing is applied to guarantee that after each update, the system stays sustainable under continuous improvements.
Katalon Smart Wait: A New Way to Handle Web Loading Issues
For those who are familiar with Selenium WebDriver, one of the most common features is the Wait command. These commands are handy in test scripts execution, or observing and troubleshooting issues that arise due to time lag. Wait commands are powerful — but they also come along with a big problem with timing due to front-end processing.
Software Testing Trends 2019 Recap
2019 is almost over. The software testing landscape has seen numerous introductions in new testing approaches and innovations at an exponential rate. It has also witnessed the continuation of technological improvement, evolution, and reinvention. As we are progressing to 2020, let’s take a retrospective look at the top trends in test automation and see how we stand after one year. Our team at Katalon has reflected on the most popular trends that took place in the software testing industry over the course of one year.
Research Done For You (2019 Updated)
The third wave of test automation brings about more concepts in software delivery – one of which is ‘continuous testing.’ However, mastering continuous testing is difficult; choosing the right continuous testing tool is even more overwhelming. Using the right tool is incredibly beneficial to your software testing and delivery success. We compiled a list of 10 most popular continuous testing tools (ranked in no particular order) that are currently in the market. Under each tool, we analyzed the features and possible drawbacks based on certain criteria, including types of supported test, learning curve, used programming language, continuous testing support, CI/CD ecosystem support, breakthrough features, and so on. 1.

Best Strategies to Implement for Your Team
In today’s rapidly changing world, software products need to be upgraded frequently and quickly to bring value to customers and users. Software features are continuously developed, tested, deployed, and operated in the production environment. New features are not only developed and tested successfully, but they also deployed and operated without much chaos and disruption. Software cross-functional teams which include product owners, software development, quality assurance (QA), operations need to work together to ensure the fast flow of work from development to operation.
What to Consider Before Applying CI/CD
Continuous integration and continuous delivery (CI/CD) is a complex part of any development cycle. It involves continuously integrating code into a shared repository to keep code progression amongst a team of developers running smooth and steady. This helps prevent merging errors, duplicated efforts and promoting collaboration to create a better product.
