WebDriver BiDi (Bidirectional) is a Communication protocol that allows two-way communication between a test automation client and a web browser, unlike the traditional WebDriver protocol which is primarily request-response based.Bidirectional communication replaces request-response limitations, enabling more reliable and comprehensive web test automation.

A self-spreading malware called GlassWorm has infected OpenVSX and one VSCode extension (cline-ai-main.cline-ai-agent v3.1.3), enabling it to propagate across systems and steal data. This supply ch...

Commissioning Testing (also known as Commission Testing) is the final phase of testing conducted before a system or software is formally released for operational use. It validates that the system meets all specified requirements and performs reliably within its intended real-world environment. This type of testing is especially relevant in enterprise platforms integrated into larger operational ecosystems, and is common in regulated domains such as insurance, healthcare, and building management systems.Key characteristics include: End-to-end validation - ensures complete system functionality, including hardware, software, interfaces, integrations, and reporting. Real-world conditions - executed in the actual operational environment or a close simulation. Compliance and safety checks - includes regulatory, safety, and performance verifications. Operational readiness - confirms the system is ready for use by end users or operators. Controlled use of live data - involves strict processes for handling and validating live or production-like data.

Creating and executing automated test cases without writing traditional code. Instead, testers use visual interfaces, drag-and-drop tools, or AI-powered platforms to design tests. These tools often leverage machine learning to auto-generate scripts and adapt to UI changes, making automation more accessible to non-programmers.
