The document discusses cloud-enabled testing services and some issues to consider when using them. It defines cloud computing and outlines the benefits of using cloud services for testing like cost reduction, flexibility, and compliance. However, issues like data security, test data ownership, and dependency on secure virtual infrastructure need to be addressed. Overall, while cloud testing services provide benefits, organizations must standardize processes, virtualize testing environments, and implement security measures to mitigate risks.

14. “ Cloud computing is a model for enabling convenient, on-demand network access to a shared pool of configurable computing resources (e.g., networks, servers, storage, applications, and services) that can be rapidly provisioned and released with minimal management effort or service provider interaction. This cloud model promotes availability and is composed of five essential characteristics, three service models, and four deployment models. ” Source: NIST, 2009a
