This article will be interesting for those testers who want to understand how to operate a popular “main” function in Python.

contains() is probably the most popular Cypress command, especially if you work as a developer or software tester. We will explain further why this command is so useful and why you should take it into account, by analyzing a simple example.

Everyone knows the practice of writing autotests for REST API using requests. But what about testing the GraphQL API? Is it the same or does it have any nuances? Let’s see in this article.

Using at least one of three drivers mentioned in this article, will allow once and for all to leave the vendor software for testing, lowering the price of automation and its subsequent support by a decent amount, as well as unifying the technology stack to the professional qualifications of testers (and developers).

In a software test automation field, a testing department that has just started this type of testing can’t frequently...

It’s very important to be able to analyze flaky tests if you are working as a software tester since any automated tests that have unclear results will constantly slow the speed of overall development down. Even if you have never worked with flaky tests, this article will still be very useful for you since it describes a completely systematized set of reasons why instability happens inside test suites.

A lot of web products under test require some level of authentication. When QA engineers test such software, they have to be able to operate a particular testing user. As a rule, it’s generated randomly and then is used in most tests. Further, in the article, we’ll talk about the most popular types of user generation in Cypress tests.

Today’s article is explicitly devoted to IBM Rational Functional Tester, made by IBM IT giant; this tool helps to perform automated and functional testing. This software helps testers execute automated testing, functional testing, regression testing, GUI testing, manage test data.

It’s hard to say whether it’s good to use more than one frameworks on a project. The answer will probably be “Yes” since [highlight dark=”no”]it’s highly recommended to work with several frameworks[/highlight], that can be used for more than purpose. Further, we’ll analyze when this should be used and when it should not be done.

An automation testing deployment can be reduced to 7 steps. We will talk about them further in this article.

This article will describe the process of attending an interview for the position of automated test developer. We will analyze the questions that you may be asked during an anterview for this position.

Constant shifting left, which becomes unnecessary when using the method of continuous deployment, inevitably increases...

An original keyword-driven framework that was developed in Python for software test automation purposes. To create tests you just need to use keywords that are inside this framework without recourse to programming. What other benefits and drawbacks does this tool have? Let’s see further.

Before you spend tons of time studying and developing a test suite for a new automation test framework, it is better to try it on different types of websites. Thus, you’ll ensure that this particular framework performs reliably and is user-friendly.

Any automated testing implies the use of a certain set of tools for the automated execution of test cases created earlier. Undoubtedly, we cannot talk imagine this process without a programming language. Further, we’ll have a look at how to choose the most appropriate one.

Python is considered to be a universal programming language. It can be easily understood by both junior developers and senior developers and some analysts even regard it as the most popular language in IT. It is also simple, technically “elegant” and readable and this is exactly what is needed to transform test cases into efficient test scripts.

This article will describe commandments we should keep while developing automated tests.

No matter whether you wish to improve software code or significantly increase automation usage on the basis of Cucumber framework — only one software development language is in the center of the entire BDD and it’s Gherkin. Further, we’ll talk about two main rules that help to create completely readable, scalable, and easy-to-automate tests.
