STARWEST 2021 - Industry Technical Presentations

Join a panel of SmartBear experts as they walk through the 2021 State of Software Quality Testing and API reports, and divulge the key trends and observations uncovered. SmartBear collected insights from thousands of developers, testers, and managers worldwide who are passionate about quality as it relates to software testing and bringing APIs to market. These reports are designed to capture benchmarks for software testing professionals. It reaches across industries and takes into account the methodologies, practices, and tools used to build, validate, and deliver software.

Enterprise companies are constantly challenged with delivering high-quality applications that meet customer expectations. The only way to make sure you meet schedule, budget, and quality targets is with a comprehensive testing strategy that provides insight to test coverage and results with guidance for continuous improvement.

You’ve shifted to microservice architecture, but now you have hidden dependencies which are maintained by teams that don't talk to each other. You’re stuck with the inability to figure out which versions work together, driving the need to test your old system in pieces and as a whole. What do you do? 

When developing mainframe applications, testing even a simple code change can take up to half a day - while testing a more complex changes can take two to four days. In a recent Mainframe DevOps survey, businesses budgeted three to four days out of every 10-day sprint for just to conduct manual testing. In addition to the lack of efficiency, this manual process is rife with risk as developers can easily neglect running a test case or even misinterpret the results. It all ends in poor software quality for the end user.

In this rapidly evolving world of app development and testing, how does one pick a test automation framework? Or decide whether to add or switch to a different framework? In this session, you’ll learn how to select future-ready frameworks that best support your testers and developers.

You’ll learn:

• Driving forces that are impacting the mobile & web app landscape.
• Selection criteria for major & emerging test automation frameworks.
• When to switch, mix, or remain with your current tech stack.
