🚀 𝗜𝗻𝘁𝗿𝗼𝗱𝘂𝗰𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗥𝗘𝗦𝗧 𝗔𝘀𝘀𝘂𝗿𝗲𝗱 𝗧𝗲𝘀𝘁 𝗖𝗼𝗱𝗲 𝗚𝗲𝗻𝗲𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗼𝗿! 🚀 I'm exited to introduce a tool I’ve developed to automatically generate RestAssured API test code—no more manual setup or repetitive configurations! This tool simplifies test code creation by allowing you to input the base URL, parameters, request body, and expected status codes. It then generates fully functional test code, ready for execution. 👉 Try it out here: https://lnkd.in/gFJbcv6R 💻 To integrate this code: 1. Clone this GitHub repository. https://lnkd.in/g9-ERsT2 2. Place the generated code directly in the "/src/test/java" folder for instant use. I'd love to hear your thoughts and feedback! Pull requests for feature enhancements are welcome to help improve this tool further.

When developers hit you with the classic: ‘But it works on my machine’ 😅🤦♂️ Time to dive into the debugging rabbit hole! 🕳️🐇 10 Tips to Handle the ‘Works on My Machine’ Syndrome: 1️⃣ Use Version Control: Ensure code consistency across environments. 2️⃣ Containerize: Run tests in Docker or containers to match environments. 3️⃣ Automate Environment Setup: Use scripts to replicate environments. 4️⃣ Standardize Dependencies: Lock down dependencies with exact versions. 5️⃣ Use CI/CD Pipelines: Test code in a fresh environment with every build. 6️⃣ Mock External Services: Avoid relying on unstable external APIs. 7️⃣ Check System Configurations: Ensure OS, memory, and CPU specs match. 8️⃣ Document Configs: Share environment setup details with the whole team. 9️⃣ Add Logging: More logs = better debugging in any environment. 🔟 Run Cross-Browser Tests: Verify code on multiple browsers and devices. #WorksOnMyMachine #DeveloperLife #QAFrustrations #TestingReality #DebuggingDrama #SoftwareTesting #DevVsQA #QAProblems #RealWorldTesting #TechStruggles #AutomationTesting #TestingLife #BugSquasher #CodeConfessions #TestingNightmares #QualityAssurance #ConsistencyMatters #TestingHumor #TechChallenges #DifferentEnvironments #DeploymentIssues #QACommunity #CodingLife #AutomationJourney #LetsGetReal #testingadventures

🏌️10 𝐓𝐢𝐩𝐬 𝐭𝐨 𝐁𝐞𝐚𝐭 𝐅𝐥𝐚𝐤𝐲 𝐓𝐞𝐬𝐭𝐬 Flaky tests making your automation life a nightmare? 😅 Let’s put an end to those random passes and fails with these foolproof tips! Say goodbye to flaky tests and hello to stable results! 🏌️10 𝐓𝐢𝐩𝐬 𝐭𝐨 𝐁𝐞𝐚𝐭 𝐅𝐥𝐚𝐤𝐲 𝐓𝐞𝐬𝐭𝐬: 1. Increase Wait Times: Use explicit waits 2. Handle Dependencies 3. Optimize: Use reliable test data or mock services. 4. Stabilize: Keep test environments consistent. 5. Replace hard-coded values with constants. 6. Clean Up: Remove test data post-execution. 7. Avoid running flaky tests in parallel. 8. Monitor CPU, memory, and disk usage. 9. Add Retries Carefully: Retry but set a limit. 10. Use Robust Locators less likely to break. Let’s conquer those flakies! 💪 #FlakyTestFixes #AutomationTips #TestingTools #TestStability #SoftwareTesting #AutomatedTesting #QAEngineer #TechTips #Debugging #ReliableTesting #AutomationWins #TestAutomation #ConsistentResults #QACommunity #CodeQuality #TestingProblems #AutomationHacks #EndFlakiness #SoftwareBugs #TestingLife #FlakyTestSolutions #TestingIsLife #CodingTips #AutomationSuccess #TechGrowth #QualityMatters

Imagine you’re testing a food delivery app. You have to verify the functionality of a field that accepts the number of food items from 1 to 100. Testing every single value from 1 to 100 is possible but excessive. It would be like trying to eat 100 donuts at once. That’s overkill, right? Instead, what if you could group these values into manageable chunks and test just a few of them? That’s exactly what Equivalence Partitioning (EP) helps you do!

Every legendary tester has that day—when you’re feeling like a bug-squashing superhero… until a missed test case sneaks into production like a ninja, and suddenly, you’re the villain of the story. 😬 It’s like cooking a perfect meal, only to realize you forgot to turn on the stove. ‘Oh, the bug? Yeah, that was part of the feature, totally intentional!’ 😅 . #testing #bugreleased #missedtestcase #productionbugs #qabash
