A recent Tricentis & TechWell survey revealed that as organizations mature their DevOps practices, they become more likely to consider quality a shared responsibility across many teams.

But distributing this responsibility means there are more people to align with, more potential communication breakdowns, and more opportunities for testing to become disconnected.

Without a test management strategy in place that accounts for the way DevOps teams collaborate, your team will run into challenges with communication, visibility, and traceability – ultimately hampering your ability to deliver continuous value to your customers.

In this webinar, Paul Bratlien  & Kathryn Hsu will share five best practices that will help you rethink your test management strategy so that it’s easier – and more pleasant – to work together towards a common goal.

Join us to learn strategies for:

• Unifying testing strategies across projects, teams, and tools
• Improving communication and eliminating duplicate work
• Creating continuous quality feedback loops in a CI/CD pipeline
• Improving your ability to meet compliance requirements
• Increasing visibility to simplify go/no-go decisions

• “Test as little as possible, but don’t let bugs slip out into production.”
• “Do not delay the release, but make sure the product is clean.”
• “You are responsible for the quality of the product, but none of the testers report to you.

These are some of the challenges being presented to testing and quality professionals worldwide, and they are the result of the many changes happening around us, specifically around the adoption of Agile, DevOps and web technologies on a global scale.

As these challenges take hold, we are starting to see the title of QA & Testing Architect being used to describe the person within the organization who is responsible for the overall testing and quality aspects of the product.

This emerging role encompasses the traditional tasks of testing, but it also shifts left into the quality of the requirements or user stories being gathered, and right into the performance of our product while being deployed and while they run in production.

Using the results of PractiTest’s annual The State of Testing™ surveys as well as his experience working with hundreds of testing teams around the world, Joel Montvelisky, Co-Founder and Chief Solution Architect at PractiTest, will explore how the role of the Testing & Quality Architect is being shaped and what it means for testing professionals in today’s teams.

In this interactive webinar you will:

1. What does a Test & QA Architect do and why is the role gaining popularity within the industry?
2. What skills and tools does the Test Architect need to have in order to effectively advance their agenda within their company and across the independent development teams?
3. What skills and tools does the Test Architect need to have in order to effectively advance their agenda within their company and across the independent development teams?
4. What benefits and business value can be generated by correctly adopting this role within your organization?
5. How can this evolutionary change positively impact the growth and maturation of test automation within the community?

Presenter: Joel Montvelisky (LinkedIn profile) Co-Founder and Chief Solution Architect PractiTest; has been in testing and QA since 1997. Working as a tester, QA Manager and Director, and a Consultant for companies in Israel, the US and the EU; Joel is a Forbes council member, a blogger with the QA Intelligence Blog, and is constantly imparting webinars on a number of testing and Quality Related topics. Joel is also the founder and Chair of the OnlineTestConf, and the co-founder of the State of Testing survey and report.
