Hi All,Is there anyone who have used Condition under RTB via business parameter where data is coming form TDS?

I signed up for the Load Testing. Best Practices, but am not seeing any way to join the webinar. I get a link toI then login and click Attend button which then indicates Attending, but I’m not entered into any webinar. And, I see no options to join. How do to join?BTW, I tried calling the Shiftsync US support number and it disconnects after one ring. Not seeing any other options of support so trying here.

What are three main considerations to help determine what you should be automating for a load test, especially integrated load tests? To find out the answer, join my session today. I have three things that you can use to filter out unnecessary business processes and limit the scope of the testing to only what you need.  Register at:  Thanks,Scott

What new skills/tool did you learn in 2023?

In the digital age, passwords have become the first line of defense against cyber threats.Yet, many of us still fall into the trap of using weak and easily guessable passwords.But how easy is it to make a password, you just have to follow the password rules, right? Well…how good are you at following rules?  Have a look at the above video and try the followingWell first try to actually beat the game :) Write in the comment if you were stuck Write how you found the answer to the different rulesWould you use such a password in your daily life?

  In this short video, @IOan provides a concise introduction to accessibility testing, offering clear explanations and key insights.Everything may seem correct at first glance, but Ioan reveals that appearances can be deceiving. Stay tuned as we explore why accessibility testing is crucial, what areas you can test, and how to get started with it. Let's dive into the world of software inclusivity!

Hello Community,Since IT and Testing related concepts can be difficult to understand sometimes I was thinking of creating a serios of explain to me like I am 5 with Legos.In the link you can see one such artile and I was wondering if you could suggest topics to add to the serieshttps://medium.com/p/ca79b3b6f96e 

This should not happen as I use a password manager:Yet it happened the 2nd time. Is there a problem with the login. Are there illegal characters for passwords (mine are all generated random strings)?

How would you as a tester complete this sentence: When life gives you lemons… a) Lemon UX: Rate life's sour experience.b) Bug filed: Life delivered lemons!c) Test life's lemons: Sour or sweet?d) Lemon test: Life's acidity check.e) QA life: Lemons under analysis.f)Other….

Hi Community 👋🏻,lately, I have published a video about AI features for software testers on my channel:  In the video, I am presenting current AI features software testers can already use. I was wondering if you use any of the mention tools in your environment, and what are your experiences with them? Also, I would be interested if you use already other AI tools or features on a daily basis.  I am really curious to see your comments on this topic, since AI is (from my point of view) a topic that is disrupting many industries similar to the smartphones have done from 2007 onwards.Have a great day!Best,Daniel

What software tool or application has had the biggest impact on your productivity or daily life, and why? How did you discover it, and what specific features make it indispensable for you?

What do you call the amount of memory that a generative AI can hold at any time?

Having recently concluded our webinar with David Colwell (link below) I thought it would be good to get opinions from the community about the role of testing in an industry that is rapidly incorporating AI. What do you guys think things are going to look like moving forward? We’re in the early stages of AI integration, but I’m sure everyone expects huge changes over the next few years, and definitely decades. My biggest question is are there any major changes you think will take place that the average person isn’t thinking about? Do you have any hot takes on AI and the way it’s impacting testing and software development? The closest thing I have to a hot take is that I think the AI explosion may end up being more of a sigmoid curve than continual exponential growth:  We’ve seen huge developm

Hi All,Has anyone integrated ai with testing as for testing the video we would need to use python with deeplearning algorithm.Thanks,Harish n

What's the most unexpected or unique problem you've ever encountered while developing or using software, and how did you solve it?

The general public often conflates various skill sets and abilities found in the tech industry. Many seem to think that in order to be a tester (or to fit in anywhere in the tech sector) you need to know how to code. I myself have found that regardless of what role you’re in, basic knowledge of code and some of its fundamental principles help serve just about any position in a tech environment. It may not be necessary to write or execute in every role, but having some degree of familiarity with how things work under the hood is often helpful in the day-to-day encounters in the field. What do you think? How much coding knowledge does your role require? And are there areas in tech where you don’t think it’s necessary? 

 Be sure to watch the engaging talk by Rhona Asgari, an AI research lead at Tricentis, as she elaborates on the utilization of AI in software test automation.Rhona talks about: Test Case Generation Test Data Generation Test Execution and Maintenance Automated Defect Analysis Visual Testing NLP for RequirementsYou can access the complete recording of this session by following this link.

The talk of the town, ChatGPT, can provide some benefits for testing activities, but its effectiveness in speeding up the testing process or generating test cases will depend on the specific use case and the quality of the input data provided to it. While people do not want to miss the train, but they have to very clear where and how they should use AI. In my opinion, ChatGPT can help in testing in following ways: Test data generation: ChatGPT can be used to generate synthetic test data based on specific scenarios or requirements. For instance, it can generate test data that simulates specific user interactions or system responses to validate the functionality of a software application. Test case generation: ChatGPT can be used to generate test cases based on specific requirements or test scenarios. However, the effectiveness of this approach will depend on the quality of the input data provided to the model and the level of detail required for the t

I’ve been wondering lately how much crossover there is in the technologies that testers use. Is the software you use specific to your company, or is it more broad/general use? What have you seen in the industry or in your experience?
