Micro Focus Help Center – explained

Finding the latest information on software products is often harder than it should be.

Micro Focus have made it early to find the latest information on all their ADM (Application Development Management) tools.

The Help Center is a great way to research and understand each tools capabilities.   In my opinion, often a better source of information than the product marketing page.

Use it to find out about tools you already have or tools you might be considering.

Test Automation Fails Smaller Teams

Why Test Automation Fails for Smaller Teams

Many small software teams turn to test automation, expecting substantial time and cost savings. However, they often fail to achieve any of these goals; instead of seeing a return on investment, they end up spending more effort and cost fixing their automation packs. This failure can leave lasting scars, deterring people from embracing automation and realising its many benefits…

breaking up with legacy tools

When to Move on From Legacy Test Tools

I often speak to people who want to abandon legacy test tools and transition to shiny new solutions. They cite several reasons for the switch, many of which are valid, while others need greater consideration to avoid a negative or costly outcome. On the other hand, I also speak to people who are reluctant to ever change tools, even though they’d see incredible benefits.

Shift Left

Shift Left Testing: 4 Myths and Why They Matter

Shift-left testing has become one of the most talked-about software development ideas. It sounds deceptively simple: test earlier in the process to avoid late surprises. But while the phrase is repeated at countless conferences and stand-ups, it is often misunderstood, misapplied, or reduced to a box-ticking activity (like many other testing initiatives).

Is speed destroying quality

Are Faster Releases Destroying Software Quality?

The relentless obsession with ever-faster software delivery puts increased pressure on projects and teams, forcing them to adopt new processes and behaviours, but at what cost? The need for speed has transformed release frequency into a core metric, but is this relentless pursuit of speed undermining quality?

AI in software testing

AI in Software Testing: Just Another Fad?

AI is everywhere. The software testing industry is flooded with buzzword-heavy solutions, and you’d be hard pressed to find a vendor that hasn’t marked at least one of their tools as AI-powered. But is AI another in a long list of cautionary tales, or does it genuinely herald a new era?

Test Automation Hype

Are Test Automation Claims Just Marketing Hype?

Read the marketing collateral from test automation vendors and you’ll encounter bold promises around costs, coverage, and defect reduction. However, for many who have been through multiple automation initiatives, the reality frequently fails to live up to the pitch.

Adding More Testers Makes Quality Worse

When Adding More Testers Makes Quality Worse!

You’re deep into a project, go-live is rapidly approaching, but there is a mountain of testing to get through. Then, a key stakeholder chimes in, “Let’s just pull more people into testing.” It sounds logical: bigger effort, higher quality. But doubling down on resources can easily lead to chaos, confusion, and worse software quality.

Is Open Source Trustworthy

Do You Trust Open-Source Tools for Enterprise Testing?

Open-source testing tools like JMeter and Selenium have obvious appeal—no licensing fees, endless customisation, and a community to lean on. But, if you’re using open-source for mission-critical testing, you need to ask—is it really worth the risk?

Should testers be allowed to block releases?

Should Testers Be Allowed to Block Releases?

Your testers find a critical bug the night before a major release. Should they have the power to stop the launch?

Testers provide essential insights into software quality and risk. Their analysis is critical for decision-makers, so would it make sense to give them the power to veto releases?
