The Innovation Imperative
Make$$
The drive for growth and higher revenues pressures companies to
achieve greater adaptability and operational efficiencies.
CompetitivePressures Change has become the new normal. Flexibility and innovation
are required to stay ahead (or afloat).
QualityMatters The adoption of innovative services for customers & employees alike
achieve greater levels of satisfaction and brand loyalties.
The Automation Imperative
Save$$
Every hour of manual testing costs a company money.
Over and over again.
On-DemandRegression Automated tests can be scheduled to execute at any time and
do not inconvenience employees or QA managers.
RobustFeatures Conditional logic, real-time dataset aggregation, and other enterprise
features can rapidly validate multiple business process permutations.
The Agility Imperative
AgileIsHereToStay
Like it or not, the days of waterfall are slowly winding down.
Internal teams are being tasked with releasing innovations
and transformations faster than ever.
BottlenecksBegone Agile approaches leave little time for inefficiencies. EVERY aspect
of the delivery cycle, even testing, is constantly scrutinized for
optimization.
QualityAtRisk The faster things get done, the more likely that something will slip
through the cracks. Go-live errors, especially in ERP systems, can
cost millions per day, sometimes even per hour.

The DelicateDance Between
Automatedand ManualTesting
AutomatedTesting
Ensures that existing business processes remain safe and fully functional
Regression tests of as-is business processes.
Rollouts of functionality to additional locations.
Quickly ensures that changes do not impact unanticipated areas of the business.
+
ManualTesting
Validates that new/changed functionality works correctly and as designed
 User acceptance testing to evaluate and validate new/changed features, interfaces, and processes.
 Existing automation assets cannot support re-engineered functionality.
+
The UAT Imperative
++
Business users must manually validate changed business processes and interfaces
UAT is Critical forSuccessful Transformations
++
Agile testing cannot slow down the pace of innovation
UAT is Critical forAgile Innovation Streams

to the test steps, we save 50% of our test time. As a
result of the time savings, we can work on projects
that we wouldn’t be able to do otherwise.”
