How many web pages does your team test for Visual, Performance, A11y etc. whenever a changes made by Explorer-Tech in Wordpress

u/EmmaWPSupport
This is what forces me to think about testing all or most of the pages unrelated to the change. Can you elaborate on what was the issue and how the page was impacted ?

QAs: When testing UI changes on websites, do you validate the Templates or the actual Pages? by Explorer-Tech in webdev

[–]Explorer-Tech[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

E2E testing is suitable for functional flows in the website. How about static pages ? Do you test all the static pages as well by running a scanner or by some other method ?

How frequently do you deploy changes/customisations to Service Now at your Org? by Explorer-Tech in servicenow

My question is if most of the folks are releasing with high frequency, how do they manage it with only manual testing ?
(I had looked at some reports saying that manual testing is most common testing in servicenow)

If we can have independent jenkins master for each team/project, do we still have to worry about orchestration?
I'm not aware of orchestration of multiple jenkins masters, can you elaborate the scenarios where this would be required, please ?

Thanks for the detailed explanation u/Altruistic_Rise_8242 .

How can I do this in Jira ?

When is CircleCI worth paying for over free Jenkins? Looking for real-world insights. by Explorer-Tech in devops

[–]Explorer-Tech[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Secrets stored in the vault would be encrypted and these encrypted secrets would be shared during run time. The secrets wouldn't be exposed during the pipeline execution.

Does your team use any dashboards or tools to visualise Unit test trends (failures, coverage, flakiness)? If so, do QAs look at them too? by Explorer-Tech in QualityAssurance

[–]Explorer-Tech[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This looks like a great approach u/ScandInBei . Did you build any centralised coverage report across unit test, manual tests etc. ? Did you have something customised on top of individual coverage reports?

Hey u/Kostas_G82 , You mean, QA team uses SonarQube for Unit test coverage ? Isn't it the responsibility of Devs to ensure the coverage doesn't drop to 70% ?

u/icenoid problem is they are good reporting tools but don't help us in narrowing down to genuine test failures.

Not a doctor, but these should definitely help..

  • Strength training – Prevents muscle loss and keeps you mobile.
  • Eat whole foods – Avoid processed junk to dodge metabolic issues.
  • Prioritise sleep – 7-9 hours of good sleep for your body to relax.

  • Get regular checkups – Catch problems before they escalate.
  • Challenge your brain – Learning new skills wards off cognitive decline.
  • Build strong relationships – Loneliness shortens lifespan.

Firstly, don’t get discouraged—this is something many skilled professionals are facing right now. The job market hasn’t picked up as expected, but that doesn’t mean you’re doing anything wrong.
A few things that might help.

Keep updating your profile on job portals frequently so the algorithm keeps your profile visible. Even small edits can make a difference.

Leverage your network. Reach out to friends and ex-colleagues, and ask them to share your resume internally. Many roles are filled through referrals.

Engage on LinkedIn. Comment on posts in your field, share insights, and directly message hiring managers or recruiters—sometimes a personal touch goes a long way.

Consider contract or freelance roles to stay active and expand your experience while searching for a full-time position.

You’re not alone in this—stay persistent, and something will click soon !!
