#SoftSkills for #testing
Soft skills are essential for all IT team members. In this article, we will explore the top priority soft skills that QA Engineers should possess. Flexibility, teamwork, and adaptability are crucial in QA, enabling Engineers to collaborate efficiently with team members, stakeholders, and clients. These skills enhance the quality of software products and ensure project success. Through simple explanations and examples, I’ll demonstrate how developing these skills can improve the performance and effectiveness of QA Engineers.

#testing #automation #KPI
Test automation has become indispensable in today’s Agile software development landscape, bringing speed, efficiency, and replicability to testing processes. Despite widespread acknowledgment of its merits, evaluating test automation’s effectiveness remains a debated topic in software testing.
Employing specific techniques is crucial to achieving an unbiased assessment. Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) serve as vital metrics, measuring the accuracy and efficiency of automated testing efforts. Selecting the right test automation KPIs enhances the testing process, providing transparency in tracking its status and communicating achievements to the executive team.

Almost every software developer complains about slow code reviews, but sometimes, it can be hard to understand what’s causing them. It could sometimes be because the right owners were not identified, but many times, it could be due to a lack of communication. In this post, we will explore what can cause code reviews to slow down and learn about techniques for improving them.
