Vendor Landscape: Software Testing Solutions

Testing tools continue horizontal and vertical feature expansion to accommodate increasing application complexity.

  • As release cycles get shorter, testing for today’s web, cloud, and mobile applications becomes more complex.
  • Organizations must be able to map key metrics from testing to help make business decisions around launch and compliance readiness.

Our Advice

Critical Insight

  • Single-pane-of-glass applications are normative from user experience but increase testing cycles. This fights against rapid release cycles that are essential to business agility.
  • Risk-based testing continues to mature for web, mobile, and cloud. This provides direct alignment from development domain into business concerns.

Impact and Result

  • Choose the right range of features for your testing challenge.
  • Find an integrated solution that reduces your testing costs.
