You’re starting at a new company. You’re beginning a greenfield project. Your agile transformation is calling for a tech revolution. You’re part of a Testing Center of Excellence. Or your needs just aren’t being met anymore. Whatever the reason, you’re in the market for new testing tools, you have all the freedom in the world… and you have no idea what you’re doing.

Shopping for new tools is not unlike dating. You need to ask yourself the same questions: “What am I looking for?” “Do they fit in with the picture I have for my future?” “Will it get along with my friends colleagues?” On top of that, the testing tool landscape has changed so much in just the past few years. What expectations should you have? Where do you even go to “meet” these tools?

Join Darrel Farris as he explores what you should be looking for when dating testing tools so you can find the “one” for you and your software team. After all, nothing’s worse than being stuck in a bad relationship.

Webinar Takeaways:

  • How to decide how you want your tests to look and build your list of “requirements”.
  • Capabilities today’s “new generation” test tools offer that might help you.
  • Good ways your team can test drive and compare tools.
