15 Most popular Bug tracking Software to make bug management simpler and consistent so you can concentrate harder on actually finding more issues.

"If you automate a mess, you get an automated mess." (Rod Michael) Virtually all software development projects today contain an element of test automation. If an initiative is not already underway chances are there is one under consideration. The software engineering groups are generally convinced of the benefits - greater test coverage achieved faster being the most apparent.

A skilled QA tester knows that the most important part of the role is perhaps the ability to create effective bugs. A bug is not useful to the testing process if it is not reproducible and properly documented.

Also known as Flood Testing, Volume Testing belongs to a group of non-functional tests (volume, load, and stress) that are performed to analyze the system performance by increasing the volume of data. This volume can be in general terms, the size of the database or it could be the size of a file interface that is being tested in volume.

Failures! Bugs! Defects! Issues in the software are categorized into different types. But, what makes them different from one the other? To help you resolve this confusion, we are here with a comparison between an Error, Mistake, Fault, Bug, Failure, & Defect. Hurry, check it out now!

API testing is used to send calls to the API, to observe and note the system response. This testing technique is further enhanced with the help of various API testing tools, a few of which are listed in our article below.

Defect Management Process manages issues in the form of bugs or defects in a software application. With the help of this process, it is possible to take care of the root causes that lead to the rise of a defect.

Bug/Defect Triage is a part of the Software Testing Life Cycle that is slowly gaining momentum during Quality Assurance, as it enables the developers to analyze errors and find their appropriate solutions. For a further understanding of Defect Triage, read our article.

The testing team can effectively achieve their desired performance goal by prioritizing test cases and executing ones that carry greater importance. But, how will this prioritization be achieved? It is through Test Case Prioritization that testers can define the priority of the test cases and schedule them in an order that increases the effectiveness of meeting the desired performance goals.
