Unlocking AI: the key to QA software test automation
Software test automation allows quality assurance (QA) teams to provide feedback and spot bugs earlier in the development process, but it requires high levels of human maintenance to stay operational.
Enter AI. By examining vast amounts of data to identify optimized test cases, AI streamlines the regression testing and test script creation process for low maintenance and high-quality continuous testing. DevOps and testing teams no longer must decide between delaying a software release or conducting all the necessary tests to ensure quality, bug-free software. Learn how AI can revolutionize QA automation testing today.

Frequently asked questions - Software Testing
Software testing is the process of evaluating and verifying that a software product or application meets its specified requirements and performs its intended functions. It is crucial for identifying defects, ensuring software quality, and improving the reliability and user experience, thereby maintaining high standards in software development and quality assurance (QA).
Keysight’s software testing tools identify defects early in the development process, allowing for timely corrections. This proactive approach reduces the risk of critical issues in the final product, ensuring higher quality and reliability.
Common types of software testing include manual testing, automated testing, functional testing, non-functional testing (like performance and security testing), unit testing, integration testing, system testing, and acceptance testing.
Black box software testing is an approach where the tester assesses the software’s functionality without any knowledge of the application’s internal workings. In contrast, white box testing involves a thorough examination of the internal logic and structure of the code, requiring full visibility of the source code.
Deciding between manual testing and software test automation depends on various project-specific factors, including requirements, timeline, budget, and testing scope. Manual testing is more suitable for exploratory, usability, and ad hoc testing, while automation is ideal for scenarios that require repetitive execution, such as automated regression testing.
Regression testing ensures that recent program or code changes have not adversely affected existing features and functionalities. Automated regression testing leverages QA automation tools to efficiently rerun test scenarios and verify that software enhancements or bug fixes maintain and improve the quality of the application.
Whether for manual testing or software test automation, effective test cases should be clear, concise, and comprehensive. Software test cases should include detailed information on how to set up the test environment, steps to execute the test, expected outcomes, and any specific input data required. Ensuring that test cases are reusable and maintainable for automated testing is also crucial.
Best practices include a thorough understanding of user requirements, early test planning, prioritizing tests based on risk, keeping tests simple, and refining testing strategies based on continuous feedback and findings. Maintaining a robust, scalable test suite and integrating testing into the CI / CD pipeline are also best practices in QA automation.
This process involves cross-platform testing strategies, using device emulators/simulators where possible, and leveraging cloud-based device testing platforms to ensure coverage across multiple devices and operating systems.
In Agile / DevOps environments, testers collaborate closely with developers, participate in regular sprints or iterations, and employ continuous testing practices to align with the continuous integration and continuous delivery goals of the project.
