A core understanding of statistical principles and how they need to be leveraged in software testing goes a long way in giving a tester an edge, plus helping the product's or application’s quality. Learn how you can manage data and even predict test cases by drawing conclusions from statistics.
Mukesh Sharma looks at why performance, of the various attributes that testers target, should always remain a very important piece of the pie. In an agile world, performance test strategies must be nimble and robust enough to try new approaches to meet the need of the day.
Since only 35 percent of the world's population use the Internet, two great opportunities exist for software testers—one, the ability to find out why so many people avoid the Internet, and two, the opening for usability tests to discover how to get these citizens online.
Advertising-revenue-generating giants like Facebook and Google are rolling out new advertising practices, and software testing is being implemented to ensure their fans embrace the new format. Learn how these new ads are expanding to multiple areas of tests that need to be run before publishing.
Usability can no longer be looked at as a time-permitting exercise in the software development lifecycle. Mukesh Sharma explains how, with users so willing to share their experiences with usability, there is no reason for testers not to take that invaluable feedback seriously.
