QA Myth Busting: QA Only Happens at the End of the Development Cycle

When it comes to software quality, one of the biggest myths in the software development life cycle (SDLC) is the notion that QA testing occurs only at the end of the development process. While this might have been the norm in traditional SDLC phases, modern software teams have long abandoned this outdated practice. Instead, QA […]

QA Myth Busting: QA Only Tests Software Functionality

When we think of QA testing tools, the first thing that comes to mind is functionality—ensuring a piece of software works as expected. But that’s only the tip of the iceberg.
