In quality engineering, axioms are foundational truths drawn from years of practice that underpin effective, scalable automation systems.

One of the biggest challenges in software testing is not having the right visibility. Too little knowledge, and you’re guessing. Too much, and you get bogged down in code. 

Quality engineering and assurance efforts, and testing as a part of those, have never been more critical than they are today. 

Software systems are becoming more complex and interconnected every day, and as a result, effective testing is more important than ever. 

What if the first bug your users find shakes their trust? In a fast-moving release cycle, you only get one chance to make a solid impression, and poor quality can cost more than just rework.

Imagine a food delivery application with a feature for scheduling orders, but this functionality fails during peak user traffic. Executing performance testing with simulated peak traffic can prevent such failures and improve the user experience.

Volume testing is a type of software performance testing that evaluates a system’s capacity to process massive data volumes within a specific timeframe. It identifies bottlenecks, crashes, or inefficiencies under high data loads, ensuring performance, accuracy, and stability. 

As software systems are updated and new bugs are created, previously functioning features may stop working as intended.

In the software testing process, quality assurance (QA) and quality control (QC) are closely related and complement each other to ensure product quality. QA prevents defects through process improvements, while QC ensures that bugs are detected and fixed in the final product.
