For a time, desktop applications were declared dead. They became too costly to develop and deploy compared to web apps, which allowed businesses to easily onboard new users, release updates instantly and introduce recurring pricing models rather than one-off purchases.
API (application Programming interface) testing plays a crucial role in software testing. On one hand, it allows validation of the correct business logic and ensures that backend—or backstage—systems meet the specifications and the intended user experience.
Software projects often fail to meet their initial requirements, resulting in expensive post-release fixes and dissatisfied users.
Many software applications struggle to handle high user loads, leading to slow performance, crashes, and a poor user experience.
In the face of increased demand and competition, software development teams are expected to iterate faster each project sprint.
As applications increasingly handle vast amounts of data and user traffic, the importance of stress testing is clear. Stress testing helps identify system weaknesses and ensures applications perform reliably under extreme pressure.
Quality assurance (QA) of systems distributed across multiple servers or regions can not be achieved using localized and single-node testing processes.
The software testing market size was valued at USD 51.8 billion in 2023 and is projected to grow at a CAGR (Compound Annual Growth Rate) of over 7% between 2024 and 2032.
