Today’s post aims to answer a pretty straightforward question: How do I find an element by XPath in Selenium? So, why is this a question worth tackling? What is XPath, and why should you care about it? Here on this blog, we’re all about software testing. Selenium is one of the most popular tools for…
When it comes to front-end testing, CSS testing is often overlooked. There are undoubtedly significant challenges in CSS testing, but that doesn’t mean it should be dismissed as an unimportant tool in an overall testing strategy. In this post, we’ll offer you a guide to this form of testing, so you understand the motivations behind…

Some well-known applications, including Google Drive, Gmail, Salesforce, and Testim.io, are web-based reincarnations of software that used to be…

I can’t count the number of projects I’ve worked on with terrific, comprehensive unit tests for server code and absolutely nothing for the UI. Part of the reason for this is because UI testing is a real challenge to set…
