What are the biggest challenges in software testing today? We've asked chatGPT

His answer: Keeping up with new technologies and changes in the software development landscape. Ensuring comprehensive testing coverage for complex and dynamic systems. Managing and automating the testing process to increase efficiency and reduce costs. Managing and preventing bugs and defects in software. Ensuring compatibility and usability across different platforms and devices. Managing and analyzing large amounts of data generated during testing. Managing and coordinating testing across different teams and departments. Ensuring security and privacy of data during testing. Managing and preventing human errors in testing. Keeping up with changing customer and user needs and expectations. **I can think of a few more, but I agree with chatGPT. original publication: Jan 20, 2023

XRAY for Jira: Failed Tests in Test Plan - how to re-run

Let’s discuss a real-life dilemma: the situation in which you have failed tests in a Test Plan: what is the correct way to re-run them? The simple – but not the best – solution is to open the Test Executions with the failed tests and re-run the failed tests.

Also, for example, the failed component indicated in the bug could be based on logical assumptions even if in the end the bug was elsewhere. So the reports are just a starting point, not the conclusion. The dashboard is in Jira, like the bugs, and the reports were done using Jira plugin eazyBI. The reports Please review each clause with the picture below. The first gauge report, Bugs Integrity Level , is an aggregation of the evaluations of most of the other reports, a general view. The one under it on the left, Dev Efficiency - Bugs per resolution with drill across , shows only closed bugs (closed on that specif
