Climate impact / sustainability of software testing discussed on the talk. ICT and testing must carry their part of global responsibility to help with the climat warming. We can minimize the carbon footprint but we can also have a carbon handprint, a positive impact on the climate. Quality characteristics can be added with sustainability, and then measured continuously. Test environments can be used less, and in smaller scale and on demand. Test techniques can be used in optimizing or minimizing number of tests. Test automation can be used to speed up testing.

I want to start off by sharing a rather sobering statistics from Gartner releases early last year.Between 70% to 80% of corporate business intelligence projects fail, according to research by analyst firm Gartner.A combination of poor communication between IT and the business, the failure to ask the right questions or to think about the real needs of the business, means most business intelligence (BI) projects fail to deliver, the firm says. IT departments make the mistake of looking at BI as an engineering problem that requires a specific package solution.But the first step should be to find out what the business really needs, said Patrick Meehan, president and research director in Gartner's CIO Research groupJAN 2011

Let me take a couple of minutes to walk through a high level architecture diagram for OBI Apps.The footprint is fairly complex especially with the release of obiee 11gStart from bottom left of the slide.Some people say that this is the best thing since sliced bread by Oracle in the BI space.7.9.6.3 – May 2011
Build vs buy dilemma
A challenge we often see with BI projects is that Business is not aware of the IT roadmap. Going live is not the end of the project for BI. That is typically where the fun begins!One phrase that I will be using frequently is business engagement. Refers to both formal and informal interaction with the business community.Start partnering with the business and identify your BI champions who are vocal and demanding users of BI. Make them your allies and work with them to promote the virtues of Bi in other organizations.BI Council is a more formal approach for business engagement. More suitable for organizations where there is a long list of enhancements pending in the queue with cross functional impacts.
Q1) Do you have a formal business engagement process in your organization? YesNo
As soon as the system goes live, the focus changes from neat looking charts and graphs to the accuracy and reliability of the data. The honeymoon period and the go-live party is over and people get back to business.Keep monitoring performance of queries because as the data volume and the load on the system goes up, you may see decreased performance on the system. A lot of these can be caught quickly and addressed Simple things like accommodating period/quarter end schedules for ETL make a huge difference.A custom data source may multiply the value of your OBI Apps deployment by 2x/3x as many users sitting on the sidelines will become believers
SAMEER:Now I’ll talk about training.If one of the project objectives is to provide executive dashboards, do plan 1:1 sessions with them after getting these dashboards validated by folks from their staff. You may want to have their staff members present in that dedicated session to help ensure their support as well.A Super-User led “Train-the-Trainer” approach is best. Pick at least a couple of folks (this way you have a backup) recommended by the sponsors, business leaders who have credibility in the organization and train them first. The idea is to make these Super Users self sufficient in creating their own reports and ultimately meet the needs of the whole department/business function.Hands-on workshops can be particularly effective towards self relianceInitially, it can be challenging for users to understand how the data is transformed during the ETL process. Even the terminology in the subject areas can be new. The key is to make the users understand the process, have mappings of old vs.. new terminology (if you chose not to rename) and make them comfortable.Today, technology offers a lot of choice in creating training materials. You can create user guide documents, videos, record webcasts, etc. You can even have separate sections by business functions and post them on an intranet site. BTW, We have found that Cheat sheets (1-2 page documents) are a big hit !!In short, Invest in Training For Success
SAMEER:Executive buy-in is essential for such projects. You definitely need their support to make an OBIA project successful.OBIA also requires a change in mindset - it strives to provides Information/ Intelligence on demand vs. the traditional way of you calling folks for data/report needs.Report design workshops in a working Dev/QA environment is a novel concept as compared to doing report mockup’s on white boards and documents. It helps the Super users to understand how the OBIEE front-end behaves and how the data can be optimally arranged to get the maximum value. It also shows them the flexibility of the OBIEE tool.One thing to note is that OBIA does not offer real time data out of the box. Users need to understand the frequency of loads and the data is good as of what date/time. Equally important is building trust in the BI application.Users will typically ask: How do I know if the summary #s add up? Are my #s in synch with the source system?Be ready with these answers and build some mechanism to periodically check for data consistency.I know the Finance folks in the audience will feel a little relieved to hear this. If needed, The report output can still be exported to excel but you can definitely avoid a lot of manual steps by using OBIA.In summary, effective change management will help ensure system acceptance
SAMEER:This is a very critical area for driving the success of a project. Many BI (especially OBIEE type) projects fail because of poor user adoption which could be attributed to lack of post production support, turnaround time for enhancements/bugs or lack of engagement with the business.A responsive support staff can make a huge difference. Even just listening to the user complaints helps, but an engagement model with effective two way communication is really required. Stay engaged with the business and pay particular attention to user adoption.From a technical standpoint, you may want to monitor query performance as data volume grows.As users utilize the system, there will be performance issues, enhancement requests and bugs discovered. This is normal! You’ll need to work with the business to prioritize the issues, commit to resolve them, and then deliver on your commitmentsTraining workshops should be ongoing as you add more usersIn summary, the initial OBIA implementation is the start of a journey, not the final destination
