If you are testing a simple mobile app, you may find it relatively easy to find representative test data. However, what if you are testing enterprise scale applications?

In the enterprise data center, one hundred or more applications of various sizes, comp lexity, and criticality co-exist, operating on various data repositories, in some cases shared data repositories.

In some cases, disparate data repositories hold related data, and the ability to test integration across applications that access these data sets is critical.

In this webinar, Rex Black will talk about the challenges facing his clients as they deal with these testing problems.

You’ll go away with a better understanding of the nature of the challenges, as well as ideas on how to handle them, grounded in lessons Rex has learned in over 30 years of software engineering and testing

The Testing Foundation Is Broken

Current testing approaches are broken. Test teams lack the true automation needed to keep up with the continuous delivery engine that both the customer and the business demands.

At the same time, the gap is increasing between the priorities of the business owners and the test team. Our current approaches simply don’t put the user at the center of our testing practices.

The rules that testing, automation, and user experience were founded on have been broken by the consumerization of software, mobile apps, the Internet of Things (IoT), and the continuous delivery and DevOps approaches needed to support them.

Learn how to design a new approach to testing that puts users, automation, and a strong relationship between testers and business owners at the center of your testing practices.

Also learn:

• Why the consumerization of software, mobile apps, the IoT, and continuous delivery demand an all-new approach to testing
• How current test automation approaches don’t support continuous delivery
• Why we need to rethink our familiar “testing triangle” to put the user at the center of testing
• Four new principles that should be at the core of your next test strategy and how you can start applying them today

Archimedes once wrote, “Give me a place to stand, and a lever long enough, and I will move the world.”

In Agile, the place to stand is testing, and the lever is test automation.

Are you using all the leverage that lever gives you? Most organizations are missing some tricks, and not getting the full value of test automation.

In this keynote, Rex will survey all the different ways you can—and should—take advantage of test automation as an Agile tester.

The best news: Many of these forms of automation involve tools that won’t cost you a dime!

Spend some time learning about some high-ROI, proven best practices to reduce failure costs and increase quality.

Today’s IT systems communicate with customers through multiple points of engagement and various interfaces—ranging from web and mobile to bots and apps like Alexa or Siri.

These systems need to provide seamless handoffs between different points of interaction while providing relevant contextual information quickly.

Teams must be able to pair device hardware capabilities with intelligent software technologies, such as location intelligence, biometric sensing, Bluetooth, and more.

Testing these systems and interfaces is becoming increasingly complex as traditional testing and automation processes simply don’t apply to these next-generation interfaces.

You’ll also learn how to:

1. Apply new testing strategies to multiple interfaces
2. Deliver fast, effective test automation
3. Leverage real-world interface testing successes for your own team

Join this web seminar to discover how to navigate testing the array of interfaces in this new, hyper-connected landscape.
