Software Testing

  Software testing has assumed significance to make the software glitch-free and more amenable to users. Software testing has become an integral part of the Agile-DevOps model of software development. Given the inadequacies of manual testing in validating repetitive and voluminous codes, test automation has assumed salience. It helps reduce testing efforts and time, especially when the testing involves multiple devices, platforms, and environments. Any enterprise process automation is guided by a few principles to make the activity worth the effort. The 7 principles guiding any test automation activity are discussed below. The Top 7 Principles of Test Automation The objective of test automation services is to ensure the build to be tested is stable, risk-free, and clear of any glitches. Using a minimal number of resources, test automation can achieve results that are not possible to conceive let alone achieve. The 7 principles to guide test automation are: 1.Improve quality: As a...

  Banks per se face challenges due to technological changes, evolving regulations, and customer preferences. At the same time, nimbler competitors (tech titans, fintechs, and neo banks) with built-in agility are delivering better customer satisfaction. In a rapidly changing business environment, banks need to respond faster with a better portfolio of products and quick delivery of services. Agility can help incumbent banks respond better to the challenges, overcome some of the shortcomings of their legacy systems, foster speed-to-market, and derive higher customer satisfaction. Banks view the digitization of their processes as a competitive advantage and deliver quality at scale and speed. Consequently, developing, testing, and deploying banking applications have undergone a sea change. They have moved away from issue-based and reactive testing at the end of the development cycle to embedding quality throughout the SDLC. For global banks, this means implementing a holistic quality ...
