Testing software is a critical step in the development process to guarantee it functions correctly before it's available to the public. The rigor of software testing is essential for user satisfaction and to pr
Tom Kilburn first introduced the concept of software engineering in 1948 at the time of World War II when the first software was developed. Software is developed on the key principle of software engineering namely designing, developing, maintaining, testing, and evaluating. While working on this wh...
Belitsoft software testing company, operating globally since 2004, provides software product testing and quality assurance services. Our clients want to know whether we use available QA resources in the most efficient way. We follow two simple rules: "use the Pareto principle" and "escape the Murp...
This principle states that to minimize the complexity of occurring errors and to make the software cost and time effective, it is better to start testing in the early phases of software development itself. The early the error in the software gets detected, the easier it becomes to correct it ...
It violates the Single Responsibility Principle.The API has two reasons to change: First, changes to the internal logic (such as choosing to make the light turn on only at night, but not in the evening) and second, if the light-switching mechanism is replaced with another one. ...
This article, Part 2, will focus on the remaining principle - automated testing. Of Tightropes and Tests Applying a strong suite of automated tests provides a codebase with a safety net. Developers can modify code protected by tests in relative safety. Method implementations can be changed, ...
If the resulting behavior is in line with expectations, the unit test passes — everything works correctly. Otherwise, it fails, indicating a problem with the system under test. For the unit test to run properly, we follow the FIRST principle within the unit test methodology: ...

In this paper, use of the GMDH networkfor predicting the testing pro- gress of software products isdiscussed. The fundamental GMDH and the...
The Condorcet principle is very simple and so can often be used to validate the results of other techniques. The Schulze method is an excellent general-purpose technique in many software testing situations, except when you are dealing with a relatively small group of evaluators who...
