The holiday season is upon us! A time known specifically for giving. From presents under the tree to secret Santa in the office, the holiday season welcomes and promotes the transfer of gifts. But often as the pace of the season increases, getting presents becomes a secondary thought and often a nightmare. The stores are full of foot traffic, the Chicago snow layers our roads, and in these intense times, we’ve all been a culprit to reusing presents. A cologne of perfume you received and rewrapped, a shirt that happens to be the same size as your best friend, or some toy or trinket that you can wrap and ship out. And though frowned upon, the concept itself makes sense and a similar concept can be applied to automated testing. Reusing – whether it be presents or test scripts – saves time and energy and increases efficiency all while returning the required results whether that’s a happy friend with a good gift, or end-to-end automation. This week’s Feature Friday is brought to you by Brett and Suraj who will discuss why it’s important for test scripts to be reusable, what Qyrus means when we say reusability, alongside the cascading benefits of a fully integrated environment focused on reusability.

Tell us more about the breadth of Qyrus’ script reusability and its use cases.

Brett:
To simplify, our testing offerings include Web, Mobile, API, and Business Process testing. What makes the platform unique is the fact that Qyrus is fully integrated. This allows users to take previously created scripts and utilize them across the platform. For example, when a Web suite is built for functional testing, those exact scripts can be imported and executed for performance testing. Similarly, if scripts are built in API functional testing, they can be imported and executed for performance alongside end-to-end API flows.

Suraj:
Exactly, and even more so the reusability of these scripts is not confined to their individual solutions. One of Qyrus’ most unique offerings is Business Process testing which allows users to take Web, Mobile, and API scripts, import and stitch them together, and validate functionality alongside data transfer across applications, operating systems, and devices allowing users to truly test end-to-end.

What overall impact do reusable test scripts have on the testing process?

Suraj:
The immediate impact can be seen on test building time. When you consider the already streamlined test building process with little to no code and a form like functionality, the addition of reusable scripts acts as gas for the engine. Being able to create functional scripts with ease, and further minimize the time and resource requirements in testing those same scripts for performance, and end-to-end.

Brett:
Exactly. Not only mitigating time, but also centralizing all testing with a repository like structure allow users the flexibility to build out unique flows maximizing coverage while minimizing time and resource requirements. With easily accessible quick imports, and the ability to edit in individual modules you can import a test, quickly edit a few requirements and test for performance or stitch that script together for process. The idea is to provide the maximum possible value with minimal time and resource commitment.

How might test script reusability help testers, developers, and business technologists? What value can this feature bring?  

Brett:
Testers and developers love this feature as it saves them both time and energy across testing requirements. Functional and performance testing are basic requirements before releasing features or applications. What would often require writing pages of code and extreme overhead is now streamlined to a form like functionality. And instead of redeveloping scripts for performance and end-to-end process testing developers can simply reuse the functional efforts for performance, efficiently covering all required aspects of testing.

Suraj:
Furthermore, business analysts can take a large step into the testing process. We often see business analysts taking already created scripts, importing and stitching together to mock their common user processes. This allows business analysts a scope into the quality assurance process synergizing their knowledge of user journey with the ability to quickly create end-to-end tests to ensure the application functions for required user actions.

Does the same or similar functionality exist without Qyrus, and how do competitors address similar problems?  

Suraj:
Reusability is often a term coined within automation testing. And though some may offer cloning scripts and import-export options, there are no other solutions that provide the fully integrated capabilities that Qyrus offers. The unique ability to build once and validate your application for functionality, performance, and end-to-end business process testing is a unique and powerful, Qyrus specific feature.

Brett:
Consider the ability to build scripts once in their independent modules, then taking those scripts and stitching them all together, while transferring and validating data. With a choice of APIs, devices, browsers, and operating systems at your fingertips, building and executing become a matter of clicks while coverage becomes a matter of choice. Qyrus is a single, streamlined, test building process where scripts can be developed and reused. Promoting best practices, naturally enforcing certain levels of organization, and centralizing all testing and test data, reusability is the foundation to testing more efficiently, while maximizing test case coverage.

How do you see this feature impacting day-to-day operations across organizations?

Brett:
Reusability is a daily impact feature. Upon every update, every release, and even within daily testing requirements, the ability to take functional tests and use them for performance and end-to-end testing increases coverage and ensures functionality.

Suraj:
Performance testing and even more so end-to-end process testing are often overlooked throughout Quality Assurance and release cycles. With so much overhead due to functional testing requirements and lack of automation, testing teams don’t have the resources required to fully test their applications before release. Enabling performance testing and process testing using already created functional scripts places maximizing coverage behind a few clicks promoting the highest level of application quality.

Though repurposing presents during the holiday season may be frowned upon, reusing scripts is the foundation for efficient automation. With faster test building times, maximizing coverage, and centralizing all requirements Qyrus enables teams to become more efficient, with higher collaboration, leading to a streamlined Quality Assurance lifecycle and higher quality applications. Happy holidays and, as always, join us in next week’s feature Friday where we will continue our deep dive into Qyrus test automation features discussing enhancements in testing, best practices, and how Qyrus can enable testing teams to produce the highest quality applications while saving time, resources, and money in the process.

Salesforce helps organizations build strong customer relationships by ensuring that their marketing and sales activities are perfectly aligned with the needs and expectations of their customers. The effective use of this CRM can help organizations find more prospects, close sales pipelines faster, acquire new customers, improve retention rates, and grow their business.

Every Salesforce deployment evolves to meet the requirements of an organization through a series of configurations and customizations. As a result, an organization will extend the capabilities of this tool or customize it to suit its specific needs. This CRM can also be integrated with other apps, databases, and APIs for organizations to benefit from a single source of truth for multiple processes.

Comprehensive Salesforce testing ensures these changes work per the given mandate and that any vulnerability is corrected before going live.

A Complex Beast
‍Salesforce is a complex application that can integrate with existing business applications that might be complex in themselves. This means two separate processes are streamlined for data enrichment and collaborative decision-making, e.g., Salesforce can use data from your SAP system. This is just a small example of what can be achieved with integration.

But, there is a problem. Such integration can change the underlying code and UI, create functional issues, and more. Testing helps proactively identify and correct such problems; not doing so would put the whole ecosystem at risk of errors and bugs.

One of the reasons why big businesses love Salesforce is its ability to create custom apps by leveraging the ever-growing ecosystem of pre-built components. The idea is to make the most of Salesforce functionalities and mold them in line with users’ needs. However, these apps must function smoothly within the existing Salesforce framework and not conflict with the environment.

You cannot trust lady luck to ensure this happens.

Even if you currently don’t have Salesforce customization requirements, the organization’s growth will demand that you create apps that address specific needs more aligned with the business workflow. When that happens, you want the Salesforce modifications to work seamlessly and deliver the value expected of them.

Improve Salesforce ROI from Testing
‍Think of an organization that needs to continuously make changes in its Salesforce environment with integrations and customizations. In this case, there is a need to build apps faster and deploy them quickly. Therefore, the testing needs to happen throughout the build process, addressing broken code quickly, effectively, and accurately. This accelerates deployment timelines and can directly impact productivity and efficiency, thus improving overall Salesforce performance and ROI.

Organizations adopting a focused testing approach for Salesforce are moving in the right direction, but many fall into the legacy trap wherein they depend on manual testing practices. This can result in errors and the need to invest a lot of time and effort in code maintenance.

The way forward is Salesforce codeless test automation that takes coding out of the equation while creating test scripts. It automates various repetitive testing tasks, irons out testing complexities, and improves testing coverage.

Optimizing Value with the Right Tool
‍Qyrus is a test automation platform that brings a simple, smart, and scalable way to test Salesforce deployments, thus speeding up testing and improving the efficiency of the testing process. Its codeless taxonomy-driven interface ensures that different Salesforce stakeholders without coding knowledge also test features, functionality, and the overall quality of the customizations before deployment.

Salesforce testing is the key to smoother, more efficient, and error-free project deployment. It ensures that the Salesforce environment with all its integrations and customizations works perfectly.

Qyrus offers comprehensive tools for test management and test data management with real-time integrated test reports, analytics, and meaningful insights. It helps you test the Salesforce process end-to-end and optimize the user experience. When this happens, the value your organization will derive from Salesforce will increase exponentially.

Qyrus has many capabilities that help augment and enable testers to test faster, more efficiently, and in a smarter fashion. We also have a lot of features that are more or less “quality of life” improvements when it comes to testing. We have talked in the past about how we have web and mobile recorders and we have also discussed our reporting capabilities. Today, we’re here to discuss a bit about our live preview capability with Qyrus team members Adhiraj and Tim!

Tell us a little bit more about the live execution preview.

Adhi:
Our live preview capability allows users of the platform to view a test execution in real-time, giving the user the ability to see exactly what is going on during their execution. Giving users this ability enables easier test debugging visually. If a step is constantly failing in the test, we obviously have our reports to give us insight, but it is also helpful to see what’s going on live.

Tim:
And there is more to the live preview feature than just what meets the eye. Not only do you see the execution, but you also get step-by-step analysis and pass/fail indicators for each step executed. That way, the user is not left guessing as to what step is being executed at that time.

What is the overall impact live preview has on the testing process?

Adhi:
Overall, it really gives users control during the test execution phase. There are buttons in the preview that enable the user to pause the test, resume it, stop it in its entirety, and the ability to reconnect to the execution.

Tim:
Although a simple feature, the live preview offers some great quality-of-life improvements overall. A lot of the time, a user might just push “execute” on the test and then walk away, waiting for the test to be done. Now, they can watch it live and get a better understanding of what the test is doing and the various actions it is performing.

How might this feature help testers, developers, and business technologists? What value can this feature bring? 

Tim:
Testers would be able to view the executions in real time and visually verify that each step is executing as it should. Sometimes, it is tedious to have to search through a report to figure out what exactly went wrong at a specific step or set of steps. This is amplified with the more steps we have and increasing complexity.

Adhi:
Developers could also use live preview during dry run executions – or basically in their unit testing. And the great thing about live preview is that more business-oriented personnel, like business technologists, can gain a better understanding as to what is going on in the test. They also would be able to passively sit and watch executions run that testers might have triggered or scheduled.

Does the same or similar functionality exist without Qyrus, and how do competitors address similar problems? 

Adhi:
Most competitors don’t even have a live preview during execution capability. Instead, they just rely on the post-execution reporting and the data, info, and analytics gathered and presented to the user there. The ability to do this is pretty unique to Qyrus and is something that users enjoy having the ability of.

Tim:
And in a traditional automated testing scenario, one might have to first connect to the grid to view the node or VM that their execution is running on. This, however, is something that might take some time, and by then a test execution might be well on its way and the first few or even a few dozen steps might have already been executed. Running executions locally also can provide the same result, but at scale, it is not preferable.

Adhi:
And, live previews are available on both the Web and Mobile testing services that we offer as part of the base offering. This means no extra package or feature needs to be purchased, and it already comes with the platform ready to use out of the box.

As we have heard, the live preview capability is something that users on Qyrus find to be extremely helpful and valuable. The extra control that it puts into the users’ hands helps with their day-to-day testing and executions. Qyrus is all about providing a better testing experience to its users, and that is provided through the many features and capabilities that help enable faster more efficient testing. Thanks for joining us this week, and we hope you join us again for another round of Feature Friday!

It seems like just the other week, we were saying, “Spring’s just around the corner!” Now, it seems like we’re practically stumbling into summer, most without even realizing it. Everyone begins to start wearing shorter and shorter sleeves, and crowds flock to the beaches in frenzies. Today, similar to the sleeves everyone is wearing, we’d like to discuss a feature that helps make test building “shorter and shorter.” Today, Jorell and Steve join us from our Chicago team to discuss a popular feature used amongst many of our clients – parameterization.‍

Jorell, Steve, tell us more about the parameterization offered by Qyrus, its use cases, and its impact on testing and QA processes.

Steve:
To talk about parameterization, we first have to introduce data-driven testing. Data-driven testing is a testing method in which test data is read from a data file, usually in a table or spreadsheet format. In Qyrus, using parameterization allows testers to have a single test script cover a wide range of test cases that can be read from a CSV file.

Jorell:
That’s right, when you want to use parameterization, there will be an option on each step that you can enable. A CSV file will become available for download. To keep it simple, we can open it using Excel or Google Sheets and fill in the data that way. Each row in the sheet will represent a test case, and each column that appears will represent a step being parameterized.

Data-driven testing is nothing new to the industry, but the way that Qyrus implements and takes advantage of it is extremely unique. There’s no doubt that there’s power in the ability to use parameterization to increase test coverage. It’s sure to cause some disruption in a tester’s daily work.

How do you see using parameterization impacting day-to-day operations across organizations?

Jorell:
Parameterization makes testing easier through the use of data-driven testing methodologies. In this fashion, a user just has to write one script and parameterize it instead of writing multiple scripts.

Steve:
This promotes reusability, a specific pain point that testers face. In a day-to-day setting, we will see less test building overall. In a Qyrus report, you can see that your test was parameterized. Qyrus will show the number of test cases you have run, the number passed and failed. Each scenario has a separate report generated, all stitched together into one video, along with screenshots for each step.

Reusability is a key factor in a good automation testing solution. Having to rewrite and manage dozens, if not hundreds – of the same test script is tedious. Testers specifically find the reusability factor of Qyrus to be useful. We asked Jorell and Steve to expand more on how other types of users might use this feature.

How might parameterization help testers, developers, and business technologists? What value can they bring?

Steve:
Well, for testers, this will be just like any other data-driven testing method. The key difference is in how tests are built on Qyrus, for the most part. Building tests on Qyrus is easy since everything is done in a codeless manner, and making it parameterized is just as easy. But in general, this allows testers to spend more time focusing on test case coverage and less on building.

Jorell:
A developer might have use for this in building and reusing unit tests to cover more than just their base functionality. Parameterization can be extremely useful in that manner. And in terms of a business technologist, for certain test cases and scenarios, they, too, can even build and use parameterization. More specifically, they might find use in the reporting capabilities, wherein one report can hold upwards of hundreds of parameterized test reports.

Alright, we’ve certainly established the fact that parameterization is an extremely useful tool, and for more than just a tester. Focusing more on the testing process, we wanted to expand more on what type of impact this feature is making in our users’ testing processes.

What is parameterization’s overall impact on the testing process, such as test building, execution, and reporting?

Jorell:
Generally, we like to split testing into these three different facets: building, execution, and reporting. I would honestly say that parameterization has an impact on all three areas. On the topic of building, we’ve mentioned earlier that parameterization allows testers to use one test script to test across many scenarios. And in general, I would say that, too, applies to execution.

Steve:
However the reporting capabilities cannot be underestimated. One thing that I believe we should also mention is how these parameterized tests can all be tied to your CI pipelines, another feature we have covered in the past here. Combining these two features together can lead to a robust testing solution for any client.

Jorell:
Yes, that really is the key. Although on these “Feature Fridays,” we only cover one singular feature, it’s the combination of these features that really brings out the power in Qyrus.

The power that Qyrus holds is not in just any singular feature or component, but rather in the culmination and combination of these things. Like building blocks, Qyrus is made of many different pieces and parts. So, what might the competition offer?

Does the same or similar functionality exist without Qyrus, and how do competitors address similar problems?

Steve:
To my personal knowledge, I do know that competitors have something similar, or at least a form of data-driven testing, in their platforms, but Qyrus makes test building collaborative so all users can see the data.

Jorell:
Another key difference between Qyrus and competitors being the ease of use, simple UI, and the time it takes to set up these parameterized tests. From what I’ve seen, some other tools require you to create the table or data file inside their platform. This is not the case with Qyrus.

Steve:
That’s right. And before Qyrus, data-driven testing was still around. However, the method of how you make data driven tests and provide the data has changed with Qyrus. And on top of that, this would require a high degree of knowledge and lots of time from a skilled tester or developer that knows the application as well as how to write code for these scenarios. That problem is mitigated, and now everyone can test faster!

That’s it for today! We hope you enjoyed this week’s Feature Friday and learned quite a bit about our ability to parameterize tests on the Qyrus platform. The impact and usability of this feature cannot be understated. But, more importantly, it’s Friday! Summer is quickly approaching, and with it better weather. Enjoy the weekend and, hopefully, the amazing weather!

Salesforce is a great tool and easy to use. But scratch the surface a little, and you will find that it is a very complex system. The fact that Salesforce is customizable means no instance of Salesforce is equal, resulting in challenging testing environments. Hence, a legacy approach toward Salesforce testing is time-consuming, can result in errors, and will prove very costly in the long run.

Test automation is a more flexible, accurate, and scalable approach to testing the various facets of the Salesforce ecosystem. It enables users to automate repetitive testing tasks and increase their test coverage, thus accelerating the testing process. It is an excellent route for any organization where Salesforce is the key facilitator of customer relationships, sales, and marketing.

But an important question should be answered before you choose a testing tool, “Why?”

If your testers want more test coverage, achieve accelerated detection of functional and UI defects, and reduce the time taken for Salesforce testing, then automation is the way forward. Automation also makes sense if you follow a CI process or want to speed up deployment timelines.

There is also the possibility of an organization having a lean testing team whose productivity needs to be increased without increasing the team size. In this case, bolstering the testing effort with a good automation tool pays rich dividends. Once a decision has been taken to go the automation way for Salesforce testing, you must look for the right tool. But not all testing tools are built equal.

You can only leverage the benefits of automation testing for Salesforce if you choose the right tool.  Here are some of the qualities you should look for:

The Ideal Choice
‍Qyrus is a codeless-automated testing tool for Salesforce that helps organizations deliver high-quality Salesforce applications and ensure the Salesforce ecosystem functions seamlessly, irrespective of the configurations and customizations. It offers codeless, self-healing, and predictive test automation to reduce repetitive dependencies across the Salesforce testing lifecycle, minimizes human error, and cuts operating and testing costs.

The right test automation platform helps maximize the potential of Salesforce. Qyrus drives the implementation of a robust testing strategy across web, mobile, and API to optimize Salesforce ROI, underpinned by reliability and seamless functionality.

We all have it in one form or another, whether it is on our cell phones, in our emails, or on social media. Auto-suggest as a feature is spread far and wide across the internet and in nearly every aspect of our lives now. Auto-suggest features help users make choices more easily and quickly. On our phones, when messaging, we are offered suggestions as to what words we were attempting to type or starting to type. It helps us expedite our messaging. What if the same were possible for testing on Qyrus? Well, today, Brett and Amy are glad to tell you more about our auto-suggest feature and how it can help you expedite your test-building process.

Tell us more about the auto-suggest offered by Qyrus.

Brett:
Auto-suggest is a new enhancement that was recently added to the Qyrus platform. There are many ways that we can speed up the test-building process on Qyrus, one obvious being our library of different action types that allow users to easily choose what they want to do in a step.

Amy:
Our use of simple, codeless action types helps make test building simpler. However, with the auto-suggest feature enabled, everything becomes a bit quicker. Instead of having to find the specific action type from our list that you would like to use, start typing in the step description field and watch Qyrus work its magic!

Brett:
Qyrus analyzes what is put into the description field and chooses the action type for you based on what it can infer. For example, if a user wanted to click on a button, they could provide that in the step description, and the click action type would be chosen for them. This goes for other action types, as well, like set, verify, and more.

What is the overall impact on the testing process?

Amy:
Specifically, this targets the test-building process. Overall, it really lets users get into a flow and spend less time fiddling with the UI and menus. It is also super intuitive to use.

Brett:
As simple as it sounds, over time through repeated use, auto-suggest can help save a lot of time and resources. Qyrus has many action types, and although that is a good thing as it helps testers cover a wider range of scenarios, it can also come at a detriment to newer users or those who are seeking to quickly build out tests. Auto-suggest helps combat this.

How might this feature help testers, developers, and business technologists? What value can this feature bring? 

Brett:
From the tester’s perspective, this helps expedite the test-building process, as we mentioned before. This can help them cover more test cases and at a faster pace. It also can aid in the learning of the platform and its various action types. One does not necessarily have to know the complete list of action types but can instead describe what they would like to do.

Amy:
Auto-suggest can also help developers create tests of their own, like for unit tests. And from a business technologist’s standpoint, it makes Qyrus even easier for them to jump in and start using and comprehending. They can also quickly create test steps and scripts using auto-suggest.

How do you see this impacting day-to-day operations across organizations?

Brett:
As we’ve mentioned before, it helps save time and resources—and thus money—in the form of reducing the amount of time that it takes one to build a test script. Instead of having to repeatedly enter in step info and choose action types, it helps testers do it automatically.

Amy:
What’s more is that this is all an augmentation of our already easy, super simple, and intuitive test-building process.

As we can see, there are many benefits that can come from using auto-suggest. The whole point of these tools is to help testers during their day-to-day work and throughout the testing process – from start to finish. At Qyrus, we’re always seeking new ways to further enhance and enable testers for better, more efficient testing. Join us next week to learn more about the platform and all the different features that it encompasses!

Repeatable actions can get overwhelming, especially when they take consistent time and energy. This concept has rung true specifically throughout technology. Making repeatable tasks easier and more functional has led to the invention of washing machines, dishwashers, down to automated vehicles. The concept that any shred of time can be saved while maintaining or enhancing efficiency is the technological industry’s calling. Similar requirements exist throughout testing, specifically automated testing. In this Week’s Feature Friday, Suraj and Brett will discuss parallel testing which allows created scripts to be executed across a range of browsers or devices, simultaneously.

Tell us more about the parallel testing feature offered by Qyrus and its use cases. 

Suraj:
The parallel testing feature takes already created web and mobile tests and allows users to execute them across a range of devices. Simply select the desired device or browser upon execution of any created test script.

Brett:
But not only can you take one script and execute it across different devices and browsers to maximize application coverage and functionality, you can also execute it across multiple browsers or devices simultaneously. Simply create a browser and device pool and select upon execution, and the script will execute across all browsers and devices within the pool.

What is the parallel testing feature’s overall impact on the testing process? 

Suraj:
Well the overall impact is maximizing coverage in a simple and efficient manner. Instead of rebuilding all scripts just to execute on different devices simply reuse an already created script, select a device or pool and execute immediately.

Brett:
The ability to test across devices and browsers also allows for a deeper level of functional testing. Ensure users are able to utilize application functionality regardless of preferred browser or device! And with real devices and browsers hosted in farms across the country, devices are readily available.

How might parallel testing help testers, developers, and business technologists? What value can this feature bring?  

Brett:
Business technologists utilize this feature to its fullest. With the ability to take created test scripts and simply select execution environments and specifics, including browsers and devices, yielding screenshots, videos, and data driven results across every script and browser combination, Business analysts ensure application functionality across use cases and clients. This allows business analysts to look at user patterns, and usage metrics and test for maximum coverage and usage.

Suraj:
Developers utilize parallel testing features throughout development very often. With beta versions of applications, developers can ensure functionality across browsers and devices early within the testing process. This is the infamous shift left, allowing functional testing throughout the development process.

Brett:
Testers often utilize the feature for extreme cases and edge cases. As a tester, when the regression suite and browser and device pools have been pre-set, the tester has the ability to schedule these tests allowing fully automated parallel test executions. Furthermore, this allows the tester to go beyond basic functional testing and include edge case testing, coverage testing, and other use cases that may not be accessible without at-hand parallel testing.

Does the same or similar functionality exist without Qyrus, and how do competitors address similar problems?  

Suraj:
Though parallel testing is a common feature amongst automated testing tools, it’s important to establish exactly what you are receiving. What makes Qyrus unique is the ability to create browser and device farms using real devices and browsers across the globe. With multiple device and browser farms, users are able to not only connect but execute across desired devices.

Brett:
Many competitors use simulators or emulators, while Qyrus enables users to write and execute test scripts to simulate exact user functionality on real devices and browsers. Get in the mind of the user and course any applications exactly as the end user would across devices and browsers simultaneously. Promoting coverage and robust, real, reporting, Qyrus continuously differentiates itself from the competition.

How do you see parallel testing impacting day-to-day operations across organizations? 

Suraj:
This feature actually one of the foundations of Qyrus automation and is used daily across testing requirements. The ability to reuse test cases and continually execute them when desired, or on schedule, is the backbone of automation. Build the script once and use it as many times as you see fit. But taking this to complete automation required another element. Being able to do single executions is efficient but simultaneous, or parallel, executions would increase efficiency that much more.

Brett:
It is also important to consider the scale. In this case, running parallel tests is unique and interesting, but being able to run a suite of scripts, consisting of your most relevant use cases. Not only can this script be continually executed, there have been browser and device pools created to mirror your top usage metrics. Multiple devices, browsers, variable options, and more providing testing freedom and power to day-to-day scripts.

Reusability and efficiency are coined terms in the testing and quality assurance industry. But the true meaning of those words are defined through Qyrus parallel testing feature. As noted take any created scripts and execute them across browsers or devices. Though reusability was engaging and an important turn in developing full automation, the next step was efficiency. Being able to execute these tests in parallel with scheduling capabilities adds efficiency to an already powerful feature. To learn more about Qyrus features and functionality that shape the market, follow us into next Week’s Feature Friday!

Salesforce is the CRM market leader for the eighth consecutive year, as ranked by IDC. Its rich features, continuously evolving functionality, customizability, and ever-growing ecosystem make this CRM difficult to beat. But there is a chink in the armor. This very scope and scale of Salesforce make it difficult to test.
Even expert testers approach Salesforce testing with caution.

‍
Let’s look at some of the reasons that make Salesforce so difficult to test:

‍

The Way Forward: Codeless Automated Testing

‍
‍Most challenges can be addressed by moving away from a legacy approach towards Salesforce testing, including manual testing or code-based frameworks to codeless automation tools. Manual testing doesn’t provide enough coverage, is slow, and is prone to errors. Testing becomes a long-drawn-out process, which involves building the automation framework and developing test automation scripts. The critical challenge here is developing a framework that can scale and is not limited in scope.

‍
Moving to a codeless automated approach to Salesforce testing makes setting up and maintaining tests easy. Testers do not have to spend an endless amount of time modifying and updating tests for different use cases. They can reuse test scripts, speed up the testing cycle, and improve the efficiency of the testing process. This facilitates continuous integration.
Codeless automated testing also removes the dependency on testing engineers to create and run test scripts. This enables stakeholders with a sound understanding of Salesforce to ensure the CRM ecosystem delivers the necessary functional ROI.

‍
Salesforce test automation addresses existing challenges and keeps pace with the evolving nature of this CRM platform.

Optimizing Salesforce RO

‍
‍A robust and reliable testing strategy enables organizations to confidently make Salesforce the single source of truth for their business operations. With Qyrus, an AI-powered cloud-based platform, you can test any Salesforce application across web, mobile, and API and how it interacts with your organization’s tech stack.

‍
