In the next years, we shall be facing a tremendous change in testing, as the visibility of what we do to the business will be enhanced, reducing costs will be a focus of our executive managers, and keeping a high level of quality to our products will be a something that is obvious for everyone to have. As test managers, we are asked today to do more with less… Because of that, test managers are facing a few major implementation challenges: Improving testing processes to the optimum and the quality maturity of their products, Manage risks and respond quickly to market needs (preventive and corrective actions), Manage their professional team better – building an efficient and effective testing team that can handle the workload with advanced methods, procedures and tools. Improvement of testing processes combined with high level of maturity in risk management has shown in the past numbers of 5-20% improvement in cost and/or product coverage for such efforts. In this unique seminar, I shall review a few of the essentials that any test manager should follow, in order to keep pace with these upcoming challenges.
