The term Internet of Things (IoT) refers to a system of network-enabled devices, components, or services that publish and/or consume data. The most familiar IoT environment is probably the home automation system in which lighting, security system, irrigation system, etc. can be controlled via a central device, such as a smart phone. But an IoT environment may also enable machine-to-machine communication for safer, more efficient industrial uses, such as a “smart” utility grid or for factory automation.

A leading PC vendor transitioning to Agile wanted to start testing each user story as soon as it was completed, but lacked the required on-demand, flexible access to realistic test environments. Learn how service virtualization helps them simultaneously spin up all required test environments—all with extremely specific test data, response logic, and performance conditions.

Continuous testing refers to executing automated tests as part of the software delivery pipeline to obtain immediate feedback on the business risks associated with a software release candidate. The scope of testing extends from validating bottom-up requirements or user stories to assessing the system requirements associated with overarching business goals.

It provides a real-time, objective assessment of the business risks associated with an application under development. Applied uniformly, continuous testing allows both business and technical managers to make better trade-off decisions between release, scope, time, and quality.

If your organization measures technical debt, have you really considered why you’re doing this, and what you will do with that information once it has been gathered? Just because you can measure technical debt doesn’t mean you should. Before you start (or continue) measuring technical debt, it’s important to recognize that there are consequences.

Now that rapid delivery of differentiable software has become a business imperative, software development teams are scrambling to keep up. In response to increased demand, they are seeking new ways to accelerate their release cycles—driving the adoption of agile or lean development practices such as DevOps.

This on-demand webinar explores how various static code analysis implementations help prevent defects during production and shape your software defect prevention strategy.

Access to unavailable system components is one of the biggest barriers to testing. Service virtualization eliminates this by enabling you to quickly and easily simulate the complete test environment, including third-party service, data stored in the database, or incomplete systems. See how Parasoft Virtualize facilitates testing of a banking application in this demo.

Test environment access constraints have become one of the greatest barriers to delivering quality software efficiently. Learn how service virtualization removes these constraints, enabling teams to test more efficiently & effectively.

The shift from integrated systems to API-based or service-oriented architecture (SOA) has afforded businesses greater flexibility and interoperability within their IT activities. But what exactly is SOA, why do APIs matter, and, more importantly, how do you test them?

With SOA, the services you consume are typically developed by your organization or a close business partner, so you can assume they have standards similar to your own. But when you adopt APIs, you usually have no visibility into how solidly the services were built—or when and how they are evolving. How should you properly vet an external API?
