Despite dedicated and repeated efforts by software teams to ensure that automated tests are easy to write,
run, and read, system tests are often brittle, tedious, and slow. They continue to be the biggest drain on
both human and computer resources and impede the software production lifecycle.
Join us on this Web seminar to learn how the world's most innovative development organizations have come to
understand how automated system test harnesses evolve and identifies three universal challenges to improving
test harnesses:
|
1. |
Provisioning and configuring the target environment |
|
2. |
Efficiently automating the invocation of complex test suites |
|
3. |
Transforming volumes of test result data into actionable metrics |
QA and testing managers, development and engineering managers, release managers, CM managers,
and software development executives will learn how these development organizations refactored
their test infrastructures to address these problems and achieved dramatic breakthroughs in
test throughput and efficiency.
