To elevate the quality of Five Jars products and ensure robust performance, Yuliia Semenova delves into the domain of Quality Assurance (QA), focusing on Drupal open-source websites in their latest blog post. It introduces a series that unravels the intricacies of testing methodologies, shedding light on the tools, techniques, and best practices underpinning the foundation of effective QA.

The article commences by elucidating the comprehensive testing process within the organisation, encompassing both manual and automated testing methodologies. While manual testing remains a cornerstone of testing endeavours, integrating automated tests brings enhanced reliability and efficiency to the forefront. A range of essential testing tools, each catering to specific testing needs, underpins this integration.

Through a meticulous exploration of testing scope and objectives, the article underscores the multifaceted aspects covered by the QA process. From requirements and design testing to frontend, backend, and API testing, the spectrum of quality assessment ensures that every facet of a Drupal website is scrutinised for optimal performance and functionality.

The piece delves deeper into the automation testing process, unveiling the concept of the "Automated Tests Pyramid." This pyramid illustrates the hierarchical structure of testing, from unit tests that scrutinise individual code components to integration tests that ensure seamless interaction and, finally, acceptance/UI tests that mimic user behaviour. The article concludes by emphasising the integration of these tests into a comprehensive testing cycle, ensuring that the testing process is not merely an add-on but an integral part of the product development lifecycle.
