Blockchain in Supply Chain Management

 🔗 Blockchain in Supply Chain Management

Blockchain technology is revolutionizing supply chain operations by bringing transparency, traceability, and trust to every stage of the process.


✅ Why Blockchain in Supply Chain?

Traditional supply chains face challenges like:


Lack of real-time visibility


Paper-based tracking systems


Risk of fraud and counterfeit products


Delayed communication between parties


Blockchain solves these with a decentralized, tamper-proof ledger.


🔍 Key Benefits

📦 End-to-End Product Tracking

Every movement of a product is recorded on the blockchain — from raw material to delivery.

Example: A coffee bean's journey from a farm in Brazil to a café in Hyderabad is fully traceable.


🔒 Data Integrity

Each transaction is time-stamped and immutable. No one can alter records once added.


📄 Smart Contracts

Automate payments or actions when certain conditions are met.

Example: A supplier gets paid automatically when goods are delivered and scanned.


🔄 Reduced Fraud and Counterfeiting

Blockchain helps verify authenticity.

Example: Pharmaceutical companies can trace medicines to prevent fake drugs.


⏱️ Improved Efficiency

Eliminates paperwork, reduces delays, and speeds up approvals.


🛠️ Real-World Examples

Walmart + IBM Food Trust – Tracks food from farm to shelf to ensure freshness and recall efficiency.


Maersk + TradeLens – Streamlines shipping documentation across global ports.


De Beers – Uses blockchain to verify ethical sourcing of diamonds.


🚀 Future Scope

As industries aim for sustainability and accountability, blockchain-enabled supply chains will play a major role in:


ESG compliance


Carbon tracking


Ethical sourcing


Predictive logistics

Handling Frames and Iframes Using Playwright

Handling Frames and Iframes Using Playwright When automating modern web applications, you’ll often come across frames or iframes—HTML elements used to embed another HTML document within the current page. If you're using Playwright for browser automation, knowing how to handle frames properly is crucial for interacting with elements inside them. In this blog, we’ll walk through how to identify, access, and interact with frames and iframes using Playwright with code examples in JavaScript and Python. 🧾 What Are Frames and Iframes? <frame>: Rarely used now; part of the outdated <frameset> HTML structure. <iframe> (inline frame): Embeds another HTML page inside the current one. Common for third-party content like ads, maps, or payment gateways. 🎯 Why Frames Matter in Automation Elements inside an iframe are not part of the main DOM, so trying to interact with them directly will result in errors unless you switch the context to the frame. 🔍 Locating an Iframe in Pla...

Working with Tosca Parameters (Buffer, Dynamic Expressions)

🧪 Working with Tosca Parameters (Buffer, Dynamic Expressions) In Tricentis Tosca, parameters help you make your tests flexible, reusable, and data-driven. Two powerful types of parameters in Tosca are: Buffers Dynamic Expressions Let’s understand each one and how to use them effectively. 🟦 1. What is a Buffer in Tosca? A Buffer is a temporary in-memory storage used to store values during test execution. You can store a value in a buffer and then reuse it anywhere in your test case. 🔹 When to use: Save a value from one step and reuse it later Pass values between test steps or modules Dynamically build test data ✅ How to Create a Buffer In a Tosca TestStep, you use the syntax: text Copy Edit =>BufferName This saves a value to a buffer. Example: Capture an Order ID after placing an order: text Copy Edit ActionMode: Buffer Value: =>OrderID This stores the Order ID in a buffer named OrderID. ✅ How to Use a Buffer You can reuse the buffer value like this: text Copy Edit {B[OrderID]}...
