Introduction: Service virtualization has become a game-changer in the realm of software integration and testing. Traditional approaches often rely on live systems or struggle with simulating complex environments, resulting in delays, increased costs, and limited test coverage. However, with the rise of open-source service virtualization technologies, organizations now have a powerful solution at their disposal. […]

As web applications continue to evolve, ensuring their quality and functionality becomes paramount. User Interface (UI) automation testing plays a crucial role in verifying the behavior of web applications across different scenarios. However, traditional UI automation testing frameworks often rely on manually identifying and locating elements such as buttons, links, and other components, which can be time-consuming and error-prone. In this article, we explore the application of Deep Learning techniques to automatically recognize website parts and components, facilitating UI automation testing with Selenium.

In today’s digital landscape, cloud computing has become the backbone of modern applications and services. Cloud providers such as Amazon Web Services (AWS) and Microsoft Azure offer vast computing resources that can be scaled up or down on-demand. However, one of the challenges developers face when working with serverless architectures is the “cold start” problem. Cold start occurs when a function or container is invoked for the first time, leading to delayed response times. In this article, we will explore the concept of cold start, its impact on application performance, and discuss some techniques to mitigate it using AWS and Azure as examples.

In order to perform structured tests, a general description of the task as found in most development models is not sufficient. Besides integrating testing into the development process it is also necessary to provide a detailed test procedure. The development task consists of the process phases test planning and control, analysis and design, implementation and […]

A microservice architecture is made of single responsibility-focused services that are small, independently and deployable. A complete business application can be obtained aggregating and orchestrating this kind of service. These services are independent of each other, giving you the ability to easily test and deploy each one individually. . A single instance of a microservice […]

One of the most useful and emerging applications in the ML domain nowadays is using the transfer learning technique; it provides high portability between different frameworks and platforms. Once you’ve trained a neural network, what you get is a set of trained hyperparameters’ values. For example, LeNet-5 has 60k parameter values, AlexNet has 60 million, and VGG- 16 has about 138 million […]

Much like we gain knowledge about the behavior of the physical universe via the scientific method, we gain knowledge about the behavior of our software via a system of assertion, observation, and experimentation called “testing.” There are many things one could desire to know about a software system. It seems that most often we want […]

Continuous Integration The first step to delivering consistent and high-quality software is Continuous Integration (CI). CI is all about ensuring your software is in a deployable state at all times. That is, the code compiles and the quality of the code can be assumed to be of reasonably good quality. Source control CI starts with […]
