Digital transformation / business is here. Ones QA methodologies and tools need to cater
digital/TaaS/mobile testing. Virtualization (network, services etc.), testing in the cloud are all
elements to consider and invest in.
Applications are more fluid, delivered faster, which implies, leaner development & testing.
Agile will take even more precedence than before, consequently develop competencies and
centralized capabilities.
More automation (non-traditional) + DevOps are required for faster, organized release to
production and for bridging the gab between dev teams and operations.
With increase in overall testing spend, investing (more) in tools adoption is the next logical
inherent step.
Security testing is still undermined (Sony knows for sure), companies need to invest in proper
enterprise IT security governance frameworks and conduct more testing in this space.
Investments in skills and tools on one side, as well as change management on the other are
the crucial elements in winning the testing battle.
With commoditization of testing, one needs to invest into more creative cost efficient TaaS
models, more agile service based, output driven models, cross-shared and cross-skilled
resources vs. legacy, traditional waterfall processes, dedicated resources and restrictive
licensing models.

Map
Set up a test tools roadmap vs. your value chain / Software Development Life Cycle model
Ensure that all testing areas are covered (Manual, Automation, Performance, Mobile, Sec., TDM, TEM
ALM industrialization
Tools
Strategy
Define and implement an overall test tool strategy for the next 3-5 years
The test tool strategy needs to include capital and operating expenses (including software, hardware and
services costs) in order to provide the most efficient, cost effective solution for the organization
ALM industrialization
Tools Team
Set up a dedicated test tools team to handle all test technologies in the organization
Establish a test tool service catalogue & use the tools as bridging mechanisms into other business areas
ALM industrialization
Upgrade
versions
Upgrade to the latest HP QC/ALM versions to make sure your organization gets the best value out of the
tool
Make sure that your current QC version is still under support

Accelerators
Utilize accelerators, either tools or other reusable assets in order to achieve maximum efficiency with the
organization test tools sets.
SAP ERP QC Project Templates, Predictive Analytics, E-approve, Business Intelligence, Operations
accelerator, Requirements Management aiding tools, SAP/Automation accelerators etc.
ALM industrialization
Integrations
Ensure that there are proper integration flows between test tools and that redundant / duplicate work is
not executed.
Examples: AGM <-> ALM, Jira <-> ALM, Sol Man <-> ALM, ALM <-> PPM/XS, TFS <->ALM etc.
