regression testing

About this tag
Regression testing on WindowsForum.com covers the practice of re-running tests to ensure that new updates, patches, or feature changes do not break existing functionality. Discussions include Microsoft's Image Transform AI update KB5066124 for Copilot+ Windows 11, where regression testing helps verify that incremental improvements to inpainting and image-editing features do not introduce new bugs. Another thread examines a Windows 11 beta bug that unexpectedly reintroduced the Vista startup sound, highlighting how regression testing can catch unintended changes. A third thread details an Outlook CPU crash caused by a faulty update, underscoring the importance of regression testing in preventing business continuity issues. Finally, automated testing via WebDriver for Microsoft Edge is discussed as a method to perform regression testing on web applications.

  4. Bringing automated testing to Microsoft Edge through WebDriver

    Today we’re announcing support for automated testing of Microsoft Edge through the W3C WebDriver standard. To use WebDriver with Microsoft Edge, you need the Link Removed on a Windows Insiders build of 10240 or newer. Once that’s installed, you can try out WebDriver for yourself! WebDriver is...
