Why continuous testing plays an important role in the business

Posted By : Monika Garg | 30-Nov-2018

The days of developers making every line of code from scratch are over. Rapid demand for new, better software means that development cycles have become consistently intensive. Apart from this, the need for continuous testing / development, and continuous integration is increasing, because application development is complicated.

 

The concept of continuous testing has emerged from the need to start software testing at the beginning of the software development cycle, and the software has emerged to keep updated for continuous releases. The most important thing is that the enterprise enables the idea of ??testing and quality from the beginning instead of distributing it as a consideration.

 

The business is feeling the impact of rapidly reaching the market and catching consumer demand. Continuous testing enables businesses to reach quickly and ensures quality. This involves the process of performing automated tests in the form of part of the software distribution pipeline to collect the necessary response from the application or software to business risks.

 

Today's business is important to ensure quality with speed, and enables continuous testing process. One of the main highlights of the approach is that the test starts from the beginning of the cycle.

 

In addition, new and emerging technologies such as Artificial Intelligence, Blockchain, Augmented / Virtual Reality (AR & VR), and IoT are changing overall software development scenario. While speed is important, ensuring the experience of right consumer is important and critical as well. Therefore, businesses have to constantly check their delivery to confirm uninterrupted launch. A small error can reduce product and brand reputation.

 

  • Continuous testing helps reduce application-bound risk


Rapid change times are definitely an important benefit expected from continuous testing; But ensuring the risk free production is equally important. Whenever the code passes through the changes, there is sufficient scope for errors. This can have a serious impact on the application or software and at the end of the development process, costs can increase when improving it.

 

  • Continued testing enables more transparency


Assuming that the test is done continuously and is correct from the beginning; It enables more visibility for developers as well as testers. In addition, the test automation tool enables careful reporting on the dashboard, which enhances the transparency of the process.

 

 In Conclusion:

 

Continuous testing has been supported by teams to enable rapid release and save heavy test costs. In DevOps world, continuous testing and continuous integration plays a major role, because it helps to prevent integration problems. It helps in checking the initial bug in the testing process and reduces the time and cost of the project's lifetime.

Most importantly, it is the last minute chaos when it is expected to be released and often helps to commit the code. Therefore, continuous testing from a business perspective is fully understood, because it adds value to business results, the market gets faster product, detects further issues in the development cycle, and more cooperation within the team Encourages This brings more agility to give at any time and provide better solutions to customers.
