Global conditions have impacted how software is being built with accelerated digital transformation, increased cybersecurity and higher adoption of modern iterative practices. The work-from-home trend has impacted the relative importance of software testing practices like application performance testing, scalability, security, and software resilience. Additionally there is a trend toward treating nonfunctional requirements with the same importance as functional so they will not create ongoing issues in your organization in safety, security, reliability, or quality.
Test automation is key to keeping pace in this environment, product better software at the pace of your competitors. Testing tools are necessary to take your strategy forward and achieve testing maturity, but making sure that they work effectively in your CI/CD environment is crucial to success.
Learn why you should:
- Ensure nonfunctional requirements get higher priority.
- Shift API security testing earlier in the development cycle.
- Determine what tools are necessary to reach your CI/CD goals.
