Achieving better testing Business driven improvement
Introduction We all understand the benefits of a good quality product.  This short presentation introduces our approach to assuring that your testing is improved in the right way. Interactive Breeze takes a business focused approach not a test focused approach to improvement.  With over ten years of testing and consultancy experience we understand testing and the business surrounding testing.  This presentation is aimed at companies which bear a responsibility for software quality in complex consumer devices such as set top boxes and mobile phones,
Challenges of testing Consistently good testing requires an established and effective test process. It does not come cheaply.  Responsibility for testing often means a long-term financial commitment.  Testing must be seen to deliver a return on investment. Test processes are generally inadequate because they have evolved on an ad hoc basis, often in response to short-term demands.   When the test process is not fit for purpose, testing becomes overly reliant on individuals and heroics.   This is a familiar picture.  We can help.
First steps to improvement Testing is improved by improving the test process.  Improvement initiatives often fail.  Why?   They are led by test teams. Test teams implement change but they should not solely drive change. Improvement must be business driven to deliver business benefits. But what does improvement mean?
Business driven improvement Improvement implies change for the better.  Better in terms of fitness for purpose and in yielding a better return on investment. The test function must be seen to contribute to delivering the benefits which the business seeks.   Benefits such as: ,[object Object]
Reduced operational expenditure;
Greater customer satisfaction;
Improved scalability to meet productivity demands.Improvement must be driven by business strategy and sound economics.  Expectations must be realistic and achievable.
Businesses are all different Each business has its own objectives and its own approach to testing. Test processes that work well for one business may not work for another. There are no ready-made solutions.  Improvements must be tailored to fit the business.  We work closely with our clients’ teams to understand their aims, aspirations and issues.  We do this by:   ,[object Object]
Collaboratingwith test teams to understand existing processes and pressures.
