Evolution and innovation in software delivery often focuses on automation, or on changing how teams collaborate and work together across the software delivery lifecycle (SDLC). However, when it comes to innovation, one key part of the SLDC is frequently overlooked: test data management (TDM).
Outdated test data management practices have…
Today, any test data solution must be capable of fulfilling data requests of a greater volume, variety, and complexity, faster than ever before. This often-pressing need is not always fully appreciated by organisations, but is seen in negative consequences that include:
Discover how Test Data Automation can help you automate your test data management by reading the infographic below! Curiosity’s Test Data Automation has changed the way test data is acquired dramatically.
Throughout the development process, software applications undergo a variety of changes, from new functionality and code optimisation to the removal or addition of features. All these changes incur risk. One objective of quality assurance is to reduce this risk, with testing playing a pivotal role in successful software delivery.
Quality…
For many organisations, test data “best practices” start and end with compliance. This reflects a tendency to focus on the problem immediately in front of us. …
Software delivery teams across the industry have embraced new(ish) approaches to development, from the different flavours of agile, to DevOps, Continuous Integration and Continuous Delivery. This is reflected in the latest Practitest State of Testing Report, which found that 92% of participants have adopted agile development methodologies [1].
A sometimes-overlooked…

Despite increasing investment in test automation, many organisations today are yet to overcome the barrier to successful automated testing. In fact, only 15% of testing is currently automated [1].
Yet, the promise of increasing automation rates remains great for testers and their organisations. …
Curiosity often discuss barriers to “in-sprint testing”, focusing on techniques for reliably releasing fast-changing systems. These solutions accelerate and optimise processes that prevent organisations from making incremental improvements to complex systems.
Common barriers to in-sprint testing include flawed software design, slow test case creation, repetitive test scripting and time-consuming test…
