What is cloud testing?
It is a software testing method where cloud service providers are selected, test cases are designed, user scenarios are developed, infrastructure is set up, cloud servers are leveraged and then testing is initiated and thus testing goals are monitored and results are delivered.
Following are four key reasons that justify the strategic demand for cloud testing in the future:
Cloud customization: The work capacity of QA teams is scaled up through the Agile and DevOps platform so that faster and efficient results can be achieved. Development and testing teams can
test the applications in a flexible manner through the cloud testing platform based according to the customer requirements.The infrastructure is flexible: When companies invest in hardware or software infrastructure, certain rules need to be followed so that the requirements can be molded in order to deliver infrastructure according to the specific features. In cloud testing, based on the teams’ environment, the working of infrastructure takes place. Real-time user experiences can be integrated with the testing needs.
Resources are both accessible and flexible: With a smooth internet connection, applications and devices can be accessed from anywhere at anytime. Through this, variations and immediate updates can easily be done in an application. Hardware investment is not required and so the testing and development platform becomes flexible. In order to make updates and real-time changes, business agility needs to be applied by organizations. A wide range of resources are provided by the cloud environment and also flexibility is provided to build and test scalable applications.
Delivering high-end products: In today’s corporate scenario, organizations need innovative ideas and strategies that are not only cost-effective, but, can solve real-time technological problems. The onus of the application’s efficiency lies upon QAs and also focus is on bringing down the testing cost.
Team flexibility is provided by the cloud testing platform so that the testing tools and infrastructure can be accessed from anywhere. Cloud testing tools can be strategically used by teams in order to leverage testing requirements as per their needs.
