Salesforce Announces IOT Internet of Things Cloud

Now Sales force is enters into the basket of IOT for their Big Data platform

Salesforce announces Internet of Things cloud and step into IOT cloud.Salesforce already immersed CRM into Cloud platform.Across the globe all the peoples are connecting to the internet in order to access the information which is related to all the information of Technology,Medical,Software etc as well as to do business with people's.

Most of the business is running with internet and communicating with people in order to do success business,suppose example Online Work,Work from home.Not only people is connected to Internet but most of the electronics are connection each other and using Internet to work successfully.

If we take mobile devices those are connected to the Cloud and communicating to each other mobiles through waves transmission.In order to work this required Internet and communication.

Day by day Internet usage is increasing like anything to connect to cloud formation as "Internet of Things".IOT Cloud allow businesses to connect data from internet of things and digital  with customers information.

IOT Cloud provide information to companies which are using internet will provide complete picture of information or data they are using and managing the data ,IOT will give better picture how to use those data and capture it.

When to stop Software Testing

Software Testing is a procedure or process of flow or testing of a product or Requirements in order to find the defects in developed application.May be testers are thinking that we are done or completed because there are no bugs ,defects or errors are not existed in tested application or product/Software.It should not think like this to stop the testing.

According to expetise Software testing is to find maximum of defects in products which you are testing but can't say when to stop testing because who don't know when there is a one scenario which is missed because of that cause errors in software product may be it because of network problems,integration problem and etc. Software testers should not think like we are done the testing to release the product for stakeholders  but need to test the application where no one can find the defects in exists and tested application or Software.

Any software ,Product have unlimited of defects may be because of program like coding and we can not say that product is bug free.When coming to Mobile App testing testers should test each and everything from scratch like UI designs,Spell mistakes,Functionalities,Network (2g,3g,Wifi), Performance,Security etc.After testing all these types at last we can find any bug which is missed in scenarios.

Please ensure that any software tester can't say when we need to stop the testing ,according to my experience can't say because always we can't guarantee that programme is 100% bug free.According to testing the applications we need to find more number of bugs in order to release the software to stakeholders.

How to use vb script for QTP

VBSCRIPT

VB Script is used for HP QTP scripting in order to create Test Scripts.VB Script is a Microsoft language where using for .Net development for Web applications. VB Script is a light weight language ,easy to understand,easy to learn and very easy to prepare QTP Test scripts for QTP framework.

Purpose of VB Script in QTP

1.VB Script coding used in hp QTP Test scripting.

2.VB Script is a Microsoft language.

3.Licensed by a many companies and using for programming Language.

VB Script Data Types

VB Script has only one Data type i.e Variant which is used in vb script.Variant is a type of data type that having different information.Variant used as a Null pointer,Boolean,Byte,Storage purpose..etc

Variable is used as a Array type to store information.We can store different type of data into this variable.Vb Script variable should not exceed 255 characters and must be unique.

Variables

VB Script has different variable to declare values or assigned types using Dim,Public,Private statements.

Dim - Used for all functions with in the script like global declarations

Public - Used for all functions or procedures for all the scripts

Private - Used for only for which scripts it has declared.

Ex: 

'Global Variable Declarations

Dim k,l,m

'Assign value to K

K = Inputype("Please Enter k value")

'Assign value to l

l= InputType("Please Enter l value")

'Addition of two integers

m=l+k

'Display Addition value m

MsgBox(m)

Option Explicit is also a variable to declare variables,if Option Explicit used you should declare variables in Test scripts for all the variables.If used Option Explicit it will provide details if variables are not declare under Dim or Public or Private  statements.

VB Script Arrays

Array is a type of storage container which is used to store  the particular fixed size of  values of a single type.The length for array is established at the time of array is created.Array is starts with number 0 for example below

Ex: 

a[3] means 

a[0],a[1],a[2],a[3]

a[0] = 1

a[1]= 2

a[2] = 3

a[3] = 4

Two Types of Arrays

1.Static Array

2.Dynamic Array

Static Array:

In this Static Array we can mention size of the array while declaring the array.For Example

Dim Value[3]

Value[0] = 1

Value[1] = 2

Value[2] = 3

Value[3] = 4

Dynamic Array

In this type of Array we can change the array size at the type of Test script and we can resize the array size in Dynamic Array.

Ex: Dim a()

Suppose if we want to resize the specified array we can use ReDim statement to resize the dynamic array size.

ReDim a(5)

• Continuous interaction of development and testing team with software requirements and changes.

Dis Advantages of Agile Model in SDLC:

• For long lasting project development this model is not useful.
• For short term project is useful.
• Unable to prepare proper Design and documentation regarding project.

Various types of Agile methods are listed below.

SCRUM:

Scrum is a agile method where it speak about how to manage the tasks between the teams like development environments. Scrum master will conduct the meeting with development team in order to divide the team into no of people to handle particular requirements to develop.In this meeting requirements will divided and assigns to particular team members to complete the task in order to deliver the projects on time.This task will known as one Sprint,once all the task is completed and release for production then one sprint will close.
In this way all the major requirements will release for production with number of sprints.
Each sprint have number of major requirements.

In this Agile model.

• Daily Scrum meetings will happens.
• Daily updates regarding project status.
• Daily task completion and changes(CR).
• Defects will fix immediately in middle of development.
• Developers and Testers will work together parallelly.
