WAYS THROUGH WHICH AI IS CHANGING SOFTWARE TESTING

Till yet manual testing was the technique through which different applications were tested. Although human testing will not lose its importance but artificial intelligence is completely changing the way software testing is done. Artificial intelligence is taking leaps and bound as far as testing is done. Let us understand how AI is changing the software testing.

Software testing has become convenient

 

The best thing about AI is that it has very powerful analysing tools. These tools help in locating the flaws in the code and helps in predicting future complications due to which testing becomes very convenient. AI has the unique ability to go through the log which saves the user’s time and increase the accuracy of the program. The data results generated by the AI algorithm give a complete overview to the developers telling them to correct the flaws in the program.

Testing process is automated by AI algorithm

Due to less time, more and more programs are getting launched without even testing them properly. As the manual testing is time consuming, many companies do not consider even hiring a software testing team. This created lot of problem afterwards. Users get irritated by the number of bugs appearing in the program. This forces them to move on to other software.

Another reason why the companies do not hire a software testing team is that it requires an amount of money to hire the testers and it takes quite a time to do testing. With the advancement of technology, the AI can do automation testing informing the developers about the flaws and bugs in the application. Through automation testing 80% of the human workload is reduced, eliminating the stress of reduced efficiency and accuracy in coding.

AI encourages human creativity

 

Software developers must be creative and tactical in this IT world. AI gives the extra time to developers to think about the ability of the app to connect with the customers. Although the application is all about the backend but the user has no interest in the backend of the app. All he is interested in is how the app connects the users. AI has the potential to test the code using intelligent algorithms. Having a very deep understanding with the client helps in popularity of the product.

AI eliminates more bugs and errors

 

As compared to other testing techniques, AI has more potential to eliminate bugs and errors. When a bug occurs during the user experience, software developers are left wondering how the bug got into the code. AI has advanced techniques through which the bug can be removed during the development process. AI can identify even small bugs and error that occur into the code.

AI testing methods will continuously increase

As the best feature about artificial intelligence is the auto learning feature, the AI testing algorithm will keep on improving and due to that the testing will continuously become better removing bugs and errors. AI testing increases the reliability and security of a program.

WHAT TO CHOOSE-OBJECTIVE C VS. SWIFT?

objective c vs swift

Choosing between objective c and swift is a very difficult choice to make. It takes many factors to consider before adopting a certain language. It is one of the most common questions asked by the developers. You have to keep in mind that no single point should dominate your decision. You should only decide after examining all the factors.

Experience with objective c vs. swift

 

First of all, observe that if you have experience with objective c or swift. If you have equal knowledge about both the languages, then you have to see other parameters like third party library compatibility, API support etc.

But if you have knowledge of a particular language, then you must stick to it unless a project forcefully requires you to work on other language. If you work on other language then there is a benefit attached to it, you get to learn about the language. This helps you see both sides of the coin i.e. learn both languages.

Timeline, Scope and Scale

App Timeline

If you have hard timeline, then you must stick to the language which you know better because using an unfamiliar language will cost you time and money. But if you have a soft timeline or no timeline, then you may use the unfamiliar language.

Scope

In today’s times, the number of objective c users is quite large as compared to swift but swift is a relatively new language. Many objective c users are shifting to swift. It is better to swift as swift is considered to be the future language.

Scale

Small projects can use any language but with the bigger projects, it is better to use objective c as swift is an immature language and whenever a new swift version comes out, the build gets broke which can be very irritating for the developers.

Technical Considerations

The XCode team has done a brilliant work in upgrading the build process to help Swift. If you want a robust support provided by modern IDEs, then you must stick to the objective c. Objective c runtime is much more robust than the swift. Swift is much more reliable and safer language due to its strong typing system and error handling. Swift manages the memory more smoothly and provides some descent wrappers. But importing of C++ code is much simpler in swift as compared to the swift. So it all depends on your project need, which language you want to use to develop the app. Go through all the above factors before choosing one particular language.
