Using GenRocket’s API to Maximize Code Coverage
by admin on Jan 23, 2020Maximizing code or test coverage is a universal goal shared by most quality assurance organizations. Whether measured as a quantitative metric or tracked as a more intuitive assessment, coverage represents the concept of fully testing an application under real-world conditions to find as many defects as possible prior to its release to production. That’s because fixing a code problem in production represents 5 times the cost of fixing it during the testing phase.
Test automation supports increased coverage by greatly improving software testing efficiency, allowing more tests to be run in a shorter span of time as test procedures are executed, repeated and continuously improved. To be fully effective, test automation tools require Test Data Automation (TDA) technology to produce the volume and variety of data needed to fully validate code.
