STAREAST Testing Use Layered Model-Based Requirements to Achieve Continuous Testing
Slideshow

Requirements, test cases, and test data are still generally designed and created the same way they have been for the past thirty years—despite the evolution of testing techniques and tools. Requirements are still specified through written natural language, which leads to ambiguity and...

STAREAST Testing AI and Machine Learning for Testers
Slideshow

Artificial intelligence (AI) is the most important technology for software testers to understand today. All software will soon have AI-powered components, and they are unlike anything you’ve ever tested before. As risky as AI can be, it is a powerful weapon for testers to solve some of...
