What If Your Testing Teams Could:

• Anticipate the impact of changes on test designs & your projects before software coding even starts?

Changing business needs, changing requirements, and changing agile development priorities are happening all the time, but the impact of these changes on testing is difficult to forecast, analyze, and manage.

Caught in the middle, testers and test teams must manage change with limited resources and ever-decreasing schedules.

You’ll learn how to:

1. Determine what is driving change and understand its impact on testing
2. Bring in testing practices to deal with dynamically changing requirements
3. Join this web seminar to learn how to connect test cases and test results to requirements and objectives.
4. Incorporate proactive techniques for building quality into software despite unrelenting change
5. Leverage your existing software tools ecosystem for managing change
