Data Analytics Using xAPI

Data Analytics Using xAPI

xAPI provides a simple way to store and retrieve learning records and learner experience profiles. Once all data is collected in a data store like LRS (Learning Record Store), it can be analyzed and converted into actionable insights. If you are interested in xAPI based LRS solution and/or want to add data analytics functionality in your eLearning application, the webinar we hosted recently, the recording for which is available here, will be very useful. Herein we cover an overview to xAPI, our experiences with Tin Can / xAPI and LRS through a short demo and our perspective with different LRSs we have experimented with. Do reach out to us if you are looking at a customized data solution and we would be happy to discuss more.

Enhancing a tester’s efficiency through data analytics

As testers we often think about what new products we need to be prepared to test for – especially as new technologies enter the market, ramping ourselves for such new areas, what tools to use to test them, how to accommodate all of them in a short agile test cycle are all things the testing group is very focused on. However, we often miss the meta point, that as testers we not only need to learn to test for them, but also leverage them to build on our efficiency in possible areas. For example, in the last couple of years, we at QA InfoTech have been talking about how to enhance a tester’s efficiency using Augmented Reality – we have a full webinar on this topic, too. Extending the same principles to data analytics, a tester can benefit from this discipline if the right practices are used in optimizing the test effort.
