We live in a world that is moving rapidly. Businesses are constantly changing – and so are business requirements for software applications. Over the last decade Agile development methodology has become more influential. The trend towards continuous delivery requires greater efficiency in the process and many developers are relying on automated unit tests, or pushing […]
It is well known that a program with high code coverage has been more thoroughly tested and has a lower chance of containing software bugs than a program with low code coverage. Even so, there’s a lot of talk these days about how thorough the unit test coverage should really be. Purists argue that you […]
Every business has different needs, and it is very difficult for one single software product to accommodate multiple requirements simultaneously. Packaged software is also created and intended for multiple users and will thus typically include superfluous features that you don’t really need.
