The hardware arrives late, testing starts anyway. Why simulators fail at timing and bus protocols, and when real target hardware belongs in the CI pipeline.
Efficient form tests
255 form variants, 16 federal states and over 100 fields per form stay manageable. Model-based test data and generic UI automation help.
Cyber Resilience Act (CRA)
Mechanical engineers and the Cyber Resilience Act: What companies can expect, where the real hurdles lie and why early action brings a concrete cost advantage.
Job profile of a tester
Testing is a team affair, not a lone wolf discipline. Which skills are really in demand today and how to plan your career path in testing.
Best practices for (architecture) documentation
Architecture documentation quickly becomes outdated because the tools slow it down. Documentation as Code and Continuous Documentation solve exactly that.
Secure by Design
Security is often the last item on the agenda - and that is precisely the problem. What defense in depth, threat modeling and secure defaults really mean.
Software testing survey 2024
The Software Testing Survey has been running every few years since 2011, now for the fourth time. What has really changed in testing since then.
Test technique for ZDF
90% of failed tests are real bugs, not automation errors. Why no project can do without manual testing.
Quality Coaching
Quality coaching differs from traditional consulting: solutions are created in the team, not in front of it. Which methods make this possible.
Security analyses
Why security in the development team hardly gets through despite a high level of awareness, and which approach really works in practice.
How AI can support accessibility
