The Cloud Native Computing Foundation® (CNCF®), which builds sustainable ecosystems for cloud native software, is making significant updates to its certification offerings.
Qualitia unveiled the new 3.11 release of its test automation platform.
The new release promises to provide many features which will help QA engineers in faster creation and execution of automation tests – promising a 300-500% productivity improvement. With this release, organizations using Qualitia can achieve better efficiency, more test coverage, and decreased costs.
“Qualitia is the pioneer in script-less test automation. Today, a lot of users are using Qualitia to automate their test cases without the need of any tool or programming knowledge. For this release, we worked very closely with our customers and the product users. Through a scientific user research approach, we gathered the user inputs and user feedback. We used the feedback extensively to incorporate features that can improve the customer experiences”, said Ashutosh Saitwal, President & CSO at Qualitia Software. “The discussions and brainstorming sessions with several Qualitia users and test automation experts have helped us in making this release extremely powerful and flexible.”.
The new Qualitia release includes the Debugger, enabling automation engineers to create, correct, and execute test cases very effectively in lesser time. Through a step-by-step test case execution in the debugger, the users can rapidly identify and analyse failures and quickly correct the scripts. The commenting feature allows users to add notes and documentation during or after the test case development. This helps in improving the overall script maintainability.
To increase the test script execution, the new release has introduced the Skip feature. Using this feature, certain steps or tasks can be skipped from the test case execution. Along with easier and faster test script creation and execution, this release also makes reporting easy. With flawless integration with JIRA, one can now file issues into JIRA directly from Qualitia– providing a one-stop overview of bugs and issues to the developers and testers.
