This milestone event united colleagues from across India—including Bangalore, Hyderabad, Pune, and Nagpur—and virtual participants, creating a hybrid experience that combined in-person dynamism with the inclusivity of online access. The […]

When you’re running Selenium tests in Python, particularly in large projects, the ability to generate detailed and readable reports is essential for understanding test results, tracking failures, and improving overall test management. In this blog post, we’ll explore how to integrate reporting into your Selenium tests using Pytest, one of the most popular testing frameworks […]

When it comes to test automation in Python, managing your dependencies is essential for ensuring consistent and reliable test execution. One of the most effective ways to handle these dependencies is through the requirements.txt file. In this blog post, we’ll discuss what requirements.txt is, its importance in the context of testing, and how to effectively […]

In the world of test automation, Selenium paired with Pytest is a powerful combination. While basic web interactions can be automated easily, complex test scenarios often require advanced techniques. These scenarios may involve dealing with dynamic elements, multiple browser windows, interacting with iFrames, handling AJAX calls, or managing file uploads. In this blog, we will […]

In our previous discussion about utilizing PyTest with Selenium, we laid the groundwork for automated testing in web applications. Now, let’s enhance that foundation by exploring the Page Object Model (POM), a design pattern that improves the organization of your code and boosts your tests’ maintainability. What is the Page Object Model (POM)? The Page […]

The relationship between Quality Assurance (QA) and Software Development teams is often marked by tension and conflicting priorities. But what if this friction could be the spark that ignites innovation and leads to unbreakable products?  The Power of Productive Tension  It’s no secret that QA and Development teams sometimes clash. QA and testing professionals are […]

In our previous post, we explored the basics of Selenium with Python, covering the introduction, some pros and cons, and a basic program to get you started. In this post, we’ll delve deeper into the world of test automation by integrating Selenium with PyTest, a popular testing framework in Python. PyTest makes it easier to […]

Need For Robot Class: Selenium normally allows file uploads using the send Keys () method for file input fields. However, if the input field is not of type “file,” it might run into problems and here comes the Robot class. The Robot class, part of the java.awt package, helps you perform system-level events, pressing keys, […]

The Evolving Landscape of Automotive QA  In today’s automotive industry, QA is no longer an afterthought—it’s the foundation of everything we do. Vehicles have evolved far beyond simple machines into complex ecosystems of hardware, software, connectivity, and automation. With the rise of autonomous driving and electric vehicles, the intricacies of these systems have reached new […]

Software development requires testing as an essential component. It ensures that your code operates as intended and finds errors before being used in production. Test writing, meanwhile, can occasionally seem like a tedious task. Fortunately, this procedure may be accelerated and improved upon by using GitHub Copilot, an AI-powered coding assistant. In this blog post, we’ll […]

Google Cloud Platform (GCP), offered by Google, provides a broad spectrum of cloud computing solutions. It includes modular services across computing, data storage, analytics, and machine learning, supported by a suite of management tools. GCP stands out as a leading public cloud provider, providing a flexible array of computing services ranging from data management to […]

Introduction A highly effective strategy for managing flaky tests and unpredictable responses is the exponential backoff retry mechanism. This blog explores the concept of exponential backoff, its implementation in Katalon Studio, and practical scenarios where this strategy can be particularly beneficial. Understanding Exponential Backoff Exponential backoff is a retry algorithm that increases the delay between […]
