A revolutionary approach to testing addresses critical pain points in today’s rapid software development environment
CHICAGO, March 6, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Cuppeda leader in DevOps and testing for enterprise SaaS, launched today Copado Explorer, a new tool designed to simplify and streamline testing for Salesforce development teams. Using a revolutionary approach, Copado Explorer automates a significant part of the testing process while seamlessly integrating into the CI/CD pipeline to ensure that testing is a continuous and collaborative part of the software development process. Copado Explorer represents a significant step forward in efficient and inclusive exploratory testing for a wide range of users, fundamentally changing the way development teams approach testing in their Salesforce environments.
In today’s fast-paced software development environment, development and testing teams face several critical issues. For example, several industry reports have shown that more than 40% of software projects experience time and cost overruns. Copado Explorer offers an innovative approach to the bottleneck between developers and testers by automatically creating test scripts in the background while manual testers go about their daily activities. These test scripts can then be added to regression packages to compress release cycles, expand test coverage, and allow manual testers to focus on urgent or demanding requirements.
“Release quality is the leading driver of risk, cost and speed within the software development lifecycle,” he said Esko Hannula, senior vice president of product management at Copad. “Copado Explorer makes it easy to automate manual testing processes, drastically reducing the time and effort typically required in traditional testing methods and improving both release speed and quality. This launch not only underscores Copado’s commitment to innovation, but also sets new benchmarks in facilitating streamlined, efficient and joint software testing.”
Copado Explorer’s simple and intuitive recording and tagging capabilities ensure that testers of any experience level can efficiently identify and record findings and report them to developers within Copado’s DevOps platform. With full integration into the Copado DevOps platform, Copado Explorer provides Salesforce developers with the visibility and traceability needed to identify, document and resolve issues faster. This innovative approach ensures that even testers without technical knowledge can easily contribute to the creation and implementation of effective automated tests.
Copado Explorer’s integrated annotation and markup tools enhance collaboration by allowing non-technical experts to provide detailed feedback and insights to QA and development teams. This makes testing more inclusive and simplifies communication between QA managers, testers and developers.
“Leaders must focus on democratizing tester accountability,” he wrote Diego Lo GiudiceVice President, Principal Analyst at Forrester in ’12 Must-Dos for Achieving Continuous Software Testing’ (June 2023). “It’s important to give testers and developers a foundation to more easily adapt to this new world of testing. Testing technologies must be significantly upgraded and infused with AI to keep pace.”
Copado will present the Copado Explorer and its rest awarded DevOps and testing solutions in booth 17 at Salesforce TrailblazerDX from 6.-7. March 2024 in San Francisco.
