It is common for any mobile application to show alerts and popups. These alerts and popups prompt users to grant various permissions, like contacts, notifications, etc. However, they need to be handled when performing mobile application testing. Though there are many approaches to handling these interactions, choosing the right tool and technique is important to ensure a seamless mobile app testing experience. Handling alerts and popups in Appium is essential for achieving efficient test execution, enhanced test coverage, and more. In this Appium tutorial, let’s understand the different types ..read more

When running automated tests with Selenium, testing large and complex web applications using traditional testing methods can take forever. Selenium Grid may distribute your test workload across multiple virtual machines, each running different browsers and operating systems. But there are other sides of the world as well. Now, there are cloud-based Selenium Grid options, but some enterprises have stricter security needs or compliance regulations. For them, an on-premise Selenium Grid might be a better fit. This way, they keep all their test scripts and data within their network, behind their f ..read more

Layout is one of the most important aspects of web design. It determines how the elements of a web page are arranged and displayed. This is where CSS Grid and Flexbox come into play – two powerful CSS layout features that help design how content appears on a webpage. CSS Grid is a two-dimensional layout system that can help you lay out things neatly in horizontal and vertical dimensions. It is ideal for creating layouts where you want precise control over the position of elements. For example, you can use CSS Grid to create a magazine-style layout with equal-width columns or a flexible layout ..read more

When building a modern website, it’s crucial to maintain a clean and presentable appearance with consistent spacing between content and UI elements. Achieving a clean and presentable appearance often involves careful use of CSS padding. Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) is vital in modern web design, improving user experience through proper content placement and spacing around HTML elements. In the image below, you can observe how the CSS padding property influences the appearance of your website. Incorrect use of CSS padding can make it challenging for users to navigate or stay on your website. Wh ..read more

ThreadLocal is particularly useful when data needs to be scoped to a specific thread, such as in web applications handling user sessions or in multi-threaded environments managing database connections. By simplifying thread-local data management and reducing contention for shared resources, ThreadLocal facilitates cleaner, more efficient, and safer multi-threaded code." } }] } ThreadLocal in Java is a powerful tool for managing thread-specific data, and its application in Selenium testing can significantly enhance test stability and efficiency. Encapsulating thread-specific variables within Th ..read more

It is now one hundred since the introduction of control charts. I use control charts to analyze the results of performance tests. If you have a Fitbit you will be using control charts because the personal ranges for your health data are based on control charts. On 16 May 1924, Walter Shewhart gave his manager at Bell Labs a one-page memo that suggested a way to use statistics to improve quality (Dobyns and Crawford-Mason p52). With his memo “Walter Shewhart launched the modern scientific study of process control” (Adams and Butler p61). The memo included a drawing of what might have been the f ..read more

Using iPhone simulators for Windows allows developers and testers to test their iOS applications on virtual iOS devices without needing physical iOS devices or a Mac. Simulators create a virtual iOS environment that mimics the behavior of real devices, enabling developers and testers to test on different iOS versions, screen sizes, and device configurations. They provide a controlled environment for testing and help achieve faster testing cycles compared to physical devices. In this blog, we will learn about simulators and how to use the iPhone simulator for Windows. Before we delve into the d ..read more

While performing automated testing with pytest, you may need to skip test execution due to the ongoing refactoring of functionalities, which may lead to instability or alignment with current project requirements. In such scenarios, leveraging pytest skip test functionality becomes crucial. pytest skip test functionality lets users focus on relevant tests during debugging and prioritize important tests within time constraints. Additionally, pytest skip test functionality helps manage broken or flaky tests, enabling progress on other tests while issues are resolved. In this blog, you will learn ..read more
