No Test Automation experience | Will industry accept me?
I have a strong functional test experience but no automation. I ‘know’ automation testing but don’t have the project experience. I am a Test lead but didn’t write any automation scripts. Analytical & logical but never did project coding. Found in-numerous bugs but didn’t prepare automation reports. Managed a big team but didn’t learn performance testing. Documented every report but didn’t produce framework guides. Enjoyed exploratory tests but didn’t script pre-defined test cases. Helped BAs and even developers (in debugging) but never developed automation framework. Understood domain & application flows but didn’t write code. Open to learning but no opportunity. Self-learned programming & tools, but didn’t get practical project experience. Passionate about Software testing but now it’s Software Developer in Test.
ClicAutomate | Empowering Manual Testers to do Automation Testing
The goal of every IT organization is to deliver a quality software to their clientele, and to complement their goal they give the highest priority to Software Testing. Automation testing acts as an accelerator to their time to market by saving time and effort, and manual testing will remain as the core for quality software delivery. In today’s changing technology landscape, Manual testers are being pushed to learn automation skills. But how? How to empower Manual Testers to do Automation Testing?
Software Testing is inferior to Development | Why (not)
Though the aspiration for being a successful IT professional is strong, we assume that the word ‘IT professional’ is synonymous with ‘Developer’. When a testing opportunity presents itself, there are many doubts in our minds and we often wonder if it’s the right career move or not. While being a developer is great and has immense potential, it should not be concluded that being a tester means the exact opposite. Let’s explore the reasons behind the perception – Software Testing is inferior to Development,
Do we really need Manual Testing?
Quality – Why is this word so important for your software? Software teams today involve a number of people: developers, testers, support engineers, designers, product managers, and executive stake holders. A low quality software impacts all of these or in other words everyone in the team is responsible for the quality of software delivered. When we look into the overall effectiveness or cost manual testing still have a pivotal role to play. Unfortunately, very little discussion is only happening on how to improve efficiency of manual testing instead most of discussions are happening on how to increase the level of automation. Many of us would advocate the fact that Manual Testing is no longer needed, and I know it well why they think so. It is mostly because of the drawbacks and challenges associated with Manual Testing.
14 Automation Testing Myths, Debunked | Facts and the Fiction
Automation testing is a concept that is heavily marketed today. There has been a real convergence of tools and approaches in automation in recent years. It’s increasingly considered as integral to project delivery, rather than something that exists to cover business-as-usual regression testing after project completion. Faster releases, increased test coverage, frequent test execution, faster feedback to development team, just to name a few are being counted as some of the Test automation benefits. Automation is being portrayed as the silver-bullet in testing technology. But everything is not so ideal. Not every organization (or client) is reaping the actual benefits of Test automation. Certain Automation testing myths must be addressed in order to correctly apply it in the most effective & efficient manner. In this article we shall examine some of the most common automation testing myths and how these prevent organizations from succeeding in Test automation.

Sealights | Tips to improve Selenium on Sauce Labs results
Different browsers render applications differently, so web applications need to be able to detect on which browser they are running and adjust their app code accordingly. Successfully testing all browsers and all versions are no small feat which is exactly why Sauce Labs built their solution on Selenium. To enable QA teams to execute Selenium based automation suites on multiple permutations, operating systems, and versions, for multiple browsers and browser versions.
At first glance, this seems like we’re done and this is the perfect solution to achieve complete application matrix coverage. Unfortunately, nothing is that simple, and upon digging deeper, it is apparent that not all environments are available for certification. You will have some critical use case gaps, there’s no way around it. So what are they and how do you get around them?
Double click event in Selenium Webdriver using Actions class
In earlier post, we learnt how to replicate (or automate) keyboard and mouse actions in Selenium Webdriver. Selenium Webdriver provides an Advanced User Interaction API (including Actions class) which facilitate user actions to be performed in an application, i.e. users can use this API to simulate keyboard and mouse actions in Selenium Webdriver. In this tutorial we will see how to simulate Double click event in Selenium Webdriver using Actions class.

What is Monkey Testing | Trivia, Types, Tools & Benefits
I first heard the term ‘Monkey Testing’ from a developer when I was 1 year old in IT industry. The developer was quite friendly & wasn’t confident enough about his code – “Hey, let’s do some Monkey Testing” he said. He sat with me and that was my first experience with practical Monkey Testing. Yeah! The name sounds funny, but this technique surely works (if you know the impacted areas). In this article let’s explore ‘Monkey Testing’ in detail.
