I DLed a password-protection supposed-.exe from FH — FolderLock — and it was flagged by Jotti with a good deal of malware, adware, then for giggles with VirusTotal and about half flagged it, including with ‘FileHippo’ in the name. I say ‘supposed’ because the DL ends with .exe, and File Explorer does say it’s an application, but the description is “FH Manager.”

I am testing application using screen reader NVDA. there is a checkbox, if i click on checkbox there will be drop down will be display and it has 2 option 1.Accept 2. Reject.

I’ve got a C# framework using Playwright.NET and Reqnroll (formerly SpecFlow).
I’ve moved common steps across multiple projects into a NuGet package to enable easy reuse. They used to be in a separate project within the same solution. But now they’re in the NuGet package project in a separate repo.
I’ve referenced the binding assembly in the reqnroll.json file and the tests run fine. However, I can’t seem to use F12 to jump to the external steps anymore. Steps held within the project still work fine with F12. This all worked fine when the shared steps were in the separate project within the same solution.
Any ideas on how I can resolve this? I’ve changed the NuGet package to include symbols and source. As said the tests run fine, but it’d be handy to be able to jump to the step like before.

In today’s development of web applications, building RESTful APIs is crucial for effective client-server communication. These APIs enable seamless data exchange between the client and server, making them an essential component of modern web development. This blog post will show you how to build strong and scalable RESTful APIs with Node.js, a powerful JavaScript runtime

I am a QA/tester/test automation professional and not a software engineer. I see companies like Google & Microsoft have very few testers i.e. almost as good as zero. Google has very few Test Engineers who are are likely just great software engineers who happen to focus on testing & testing infrastructure. Microsoft has a few “QA” whose job is to test hardware like Xbox and videogames where automation is not very easy. Google seems to be doing fine & working exceptionally production bug free, but Microsoft is a mixed bag. Overall, their products seem good without the need for QA roles. There are other companies like Salesforce where they have no QA per my friend who is a senior software engineer there. This trend seems to have caught on in some smaller companies (like mine) who are slowly getting rid of their QA teams.
However, I do see many companies like Amazon, Oracle etc. which still have QA. But some of these companies are trying to move away from QA teams gradually. My guess is that they keep QA around because its hard to find great software engineers/SWEs who can also test well. As time passes, SWEs will learn more testing & get used to it thereby reducing or eliminating the need for separate QA roles. Do we really need QA roles in the long run ? I am beginning to think we don’t.
PS – It could take 10 years or less, or more. 10 is just a random guess.

I have a problem while switching from native view to webview in Android while testing on MAC OS. But the same scripts works fine in windows. In Mac it gives chrome not reachable as a webdriver exception or some times session not found exception. I’m using Appium with Eclipse in Mac. I tried replacing different version of chromedriver but none of them worked. Any solution for this!

Thanks

I know for different parameters I have to use a CSV DatasetConfig and create a .csv file, with the email id and password separated by a comma.

For native mobile apps, we are using HTTPS Test Script Recorder, which records the actions I am doing. Using the recording, I am able to create the script for only one user, but I want multiple users to log in and log out.

I want to create a flow like:

First user logged in – > logout
Second user logged in -> logout

Since the naming of our project changed, I would like to concistently reflect that change in project-names and namespaces within my solution. Also, the standard test suite file files (.rxtst, .rxtmg, .rxrep) should be renamed accordingly.

What I tried:

Renaming the solution and projects within the Ranorex IDE works fine.

Renaming the standard test suite files in the Ranorex IDE will rename all references, except for references to the repository within CodeModule files. These will point to the previous repository name, resulting in compile errors.

Renaming the namespaces in the Ranorex IDE is not supported. Renaming (refactoring) the namespace in Visual Studio works in that the solution will compile just fine afterwards when compiled in Visual Studio. However, opening the solution in the Ranorex IDE will regenerate the code of recording modules, which still point to the previous, no longer valid repository name, resulting in compile errors.

Any suggestions how to handle the scenario efficiently, consistently and correctly?
Many thanks in advance!

I’m approaching to create the test automation architecture for a mobile project for the first time.
Here are the issues:
-The project if (of course) multi platform (all Android devices running version 8 or higher and all iOS devices running iOS 12 or higher)
-Both apps are natives (Android Studio/Kotlin + Xcode/Swift)
-The app has a core BT library because the software communicates via BT with a phisycal object (IoT)

The server used to trigger a system of alarm via certains codes is on Firebase
The server used to manage communications to end users and that translate the codes from Firebase is on AWS
-The project is already in production as I was hired by this company 6 months ago
-The company asked me to try to create a TAA for this project

My idea is to start with some unit tests (for all the functions and library used for both Android and iOS),then make some integration testing via API but.. I have no idea if it’s possibile to automate some interactions between the app, the BT and the alarm to trigger.
Do you know if there is a “best practice” to automate mobile app in the context of IoT?

Im working with SAP test automation with the JCOB DLL 1.18.64bit library.
My code was working fine when I run the test with Java 8.
But when I set the project settings to Java 11, I got below error.
com.jacob.com.ComFailException: Can’t co-create object

Is there any specific JCOB version available for Java 11?

In an ETL process a table is dynamically constructed using a complex SQL query. This query is written by a developer. As a QA engineer, how can I validate that the table is correct according to specification?
What I am doing right now is:
1/ Validating constraints. For example: No duplicate for some functional key, no null value..
2/ Trying to rewrite the query and comparing the results with the developer’s query (should give same result).
I feel that 1/ is not enough and 2/ is doing the developer’s job again (if i use his code, it is not validating anything, writing my own is complicated and I can also make mistakes in my code).
What is a good strategy to test this kind of database?
