User Access Restrictions to specific defects/Test cycles

 I would like to implement access restrictions for certain test cycles and defects (bugs) within  qTest Manager. The goal is to limit access to specific test cycles and bugs to designated users, ensuring that each team member only has visibility of relevant information pertaining to their responsibilities. Could you please provide guidance on how to configure user permissions to achieve this level of access control effectively?Thank you

Engineering measurement

I work in an organisation where some domains we think are doing OK. They are CD, YBIYRI, product teams delivering to production in some instances multiple times a day.In other domains they have not really even started on that journey. They are projects not products and follow a more siloed, phased, document heavy way of working.We have a mandate to help these other domains on their journey to CD.We do however want to be sure we are safe to scale. We traditionally have only used trailing metrics (e.g. DORA) which tell us how we DID. We have a gut feel that as we scale we may need metrics that are more leading (e.g. measuring engineering signals like code complexity or, dare I say it, code coverage) which tell us how we ARE DOING.We think we are aware of the usual gotchas in measurement and so our measurement principles include things like: don't measure individuals but teams, don't set arbitrary targets, don't use metrics to judge across teams but to help each team have better evidence-

Webinar recap 🎥 - Is Generative AI taking over Testing?Blog

Below is a recap of our webinar with @dave Colwell, the Artificial Intelligence & Machine Learning VP at Tricentis. You can view the original in the link below, just be sure that you’re logged in 🙂  Is Generative AI taking over testing? David Colwell webinar recapThe 3 main questions Why do we need AI? How can we use AI?  How do we test AI?  1. Why do we need AI? Before we begin, we need to address the idea of the human attention span. Take a moment to consider these facts about attention across various demographics:  A human’s attention span, put simply, is not good. It gets even worse when you start putting multiple screens in front of someone, a common scenario for many of us today. We’ve found that the average person can hold roughly 7 pieces of information in their working memory at a time, give or take. With apps like TikTok and other distraction-heavy apps on the rise, this stat doesn’t seem like it’s going to improve any time soon. So how does this relate to AI? Consider w

What do you think the future of testing looks like in light of AI?

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 development throughout 2023 with generative AI, but I think it’s possible we see a sort of cooling period instead of the insane jump we saw this year. What do you think? Don’t forget to check out the webina

Do testers need to know how to code?

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?

As testers, should we or shouldn't we talk about AI tools like chatGPT?

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 test cases. Test script automatio

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?

5 best practices for performance testing at the speed of AgileBlog

By Larry Loeb, Veteran Technology Editor and AuthorBehold, the five best practices that can help maximize advantages while assisting with load testing in an Agile environment.1. Make performance SLAs a focus areaPerformance needs to be somewhere on the task board if the team is going to give it attention. Otherwise, it will get ignored. One effective way to ensure inclusion of performance is using your performance service level agreements (SLAs) as acceptance testing for each story. That means the story cannot be “done” if changes will cause the application to fall short of the SLAs.This discipline works well if the changes made to the story will affect a relatively small section of the overall code. The performance issues would, therefore, be confined to a portion of the application.For SLAs that are general across the entire application, tests should be added to a more extensive list of constraints (which may include functional tests) that will be tested for every story to determine

🤔 Deployment Dilemma: To Friday or Not to Friday? 🚀

Hey Shiftsync community! 👋 I hope you're all having a fantastic Friday. Today, I want to dive into a topic that has been a hot debate in the tech world for a long time – should we deploy on Fridays? 📅 Opinions on this matter are as diverse as our favorite programming languages, and I'd love to hear your thoughts and stories on this! Here's my take: I'm a firm believer that Fridays are a day for wrapping up the week, reflecting on accomplishments, and preparing for a well-deserved weekend. Rushing a deployment at the end of the week might lead to increased stress, last-minute issues, and the risk of having to work over the weekend to resolve unforeseen problems. That being said, I know some teams who swear by Friday deployments, arguing that it allows them to catch and address issues promptly, should they arise. They claim it gives them a head start on Monday, and it aligns with agile principles of continuous delivery. So, what's your perspective? 🤷‍♂️👍 Do you advocate for Friday de
