The Hidden Costs of Inefficient Software Testing

As the world increasingly relies on software, efficient software testing has become more crucial than ever. However, companies often overlook the hidden costs of inefficient software testing in a rush to develop new software and applications. These hidden costs can quickly add up, causing major headaches for developers and software companies. ...

Top 5 Benefits of Model-Based Testing in 2023

With the digital landscape constantly evolving, high-quality software is an absolute must. To ensure that your apps and systems are up to par with today's standards, model-based testing provides a comprehensive solution for ensuring peak performance. This testing method allows you to increase coverage levels while reducing execution time – ...

Test Design Automation: Core of Test Automation

Introduction This blog post is an attempt to address the question of whether model-based testing (MBT) or also called Test Design Automation (TDA) has a bright future in the testing industry. Well, before that, this blog acknowledges that readers have some background knowledge in the field of software testing. The TDA extensively considers the ...

AI’s Impact on the Future of Testing Industry

Is Artificial Intelligence Changing The Future Of Testing Industry? Current Testing Landscape: Manual and automated testing– these two primary testing warriors work in tandem to uncover software faults and defects. AI promises to handle repetitive, monotonous tasks, freeing up time for more essential work. AI software ...

Data Analytics & Software Test Automation Synergy

Can Data Analytics Find Its Application In Software Test Automation?   The Ever-Evolving Testing Market Currently, around the globe, the organizational processes have been evolving with the adoption of newer technologies and the addition of extended support with Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning has indeed ...

Generating Tests for Mutation Analysis

Recently I wrote a blog post about mutation testing. That post was a high level overview of what mutation testing is and how mutation analysis can be applied in automatic test generation. This time I was thinking of writing a more hands-on blog post about how to interpret and understand test cases generated by Conformiq’s recently introduced ...

Designer 5.0: Revolutionize Mutation Testing

Mutation testing is a software testing method which involves modifying the system code in small changes, yielding a faulty system, a mutant of the original one. These changes mimic typical errors that a programmer could have made. The goal is to find weaknesses in a test suite and to develop more effective one. Mutation analysis is typically ...

MBT in the Automotive Industry: A Deep Dive

The automotive industry is constantly facing the significant challenge of releasing cars with no software defects. It goes without saying that a software fault in the braking system, in the traction control system or in the assisted steering system can be catastrophic, while problems in non safety critical components may “only” annoy the user, yet ...

Model-Driven Workflow in Software Testing

Recently I wrote a blog post about the action language adopted and standardized by the OMG (Object Management Group) called Action Language for fUML or Alf where I alluded about something that I call “model driven workflow” (MDW) — a modeling workflow that embraces modeling across the whole software development lifecycle integrating design, ...

Modeling with ALF Action Language in Testing

I remember more than 10 years ago when we were making a decision on what the modeling language we should be using for creating Conformiq Designer models. It was quite clear that we wanted to have a graphical notation that the user could use to capture high-level control flow and life cycle of objects as well as event loop structures and high-level ...

Conformiq’s Kalyan Talluri Speaks at WCNGT

Conformiq, which is transforming software testing with the most sophisticated and comprehensive automated test design solution in the industry, will participate in the World Conference Next Generation Testing (WCNGT 2016). This year’s theme is “Test Automation, Continuous Testing & DevOps, Test Leadership, QA in ...

Conformiq Test Generation Technology Insights

Quite often when people talk about MBT (Model Based Testing) they intuitively assume that model is always something with “boxes and arrows”; that is the model in MBT needs to be graphical and it is constructed out of some kind of nodes or vertices which are then connected using arrows of some sort. To some, model may simply mean a state chart or ...
