The PoC concept for software testing automation

Introducing automation into any stage of the software development workflow has great potential. It can be exactly what your team needs to save a lot of time and effort, and, as a result, money. Test automation can arguably be especially beneficial, since covering all the test cases manually is non an optimal use of resources. But choosing the right automation tools for your software testing is not a quick and simple process. Testing tool evaluation without a PoC can take weeks and at the end you might still get a tool with certain limitations that won’t make it the right fit for your project.

A definitive guide to proof of concept vs. prototype in product development

Software development is one of the most competitive industries these days. Even if we look only at the applications, the numbers are staggering. There are tens of thousands of new apps released every month, and obviously, only a handful of them become successful. No matter how original the app concept might seem, a lot of considerations need to be taken into account before making the final decision to turn the concept into a working app. Both a proof of concept and a prototype are often mentioned among the most popular methods that help to determine if a product idea is viable and worth pursuing.

From idea to reality: the meaning of PoC in software development

Being optimistic about gaining support for an idea or project is not enough. Investors and stakeholders are typically pragmatic and require concrete evidence that business proposals can be viable and successful. This is where a proof of concept (PoC) comes in. A PoC demonstrates the core functionality or a key component of the planned software to demonstrate that it's feasible and likely to meet business goals. We’ve already thoroughly covered what a PoC is in one of our articles, but here we want to give a quick reminder.

However, MVPs and PoCs serve different purposes and are used in differing circumstances. Read the article to learn what they are exactly, the difference between them and when to use each of them. A proof of concept, or a PoC, is a way of validating a product’s feasibility.
