Digital transformation has lead to strong
recognition of QA and Testing
Due to the need for faster time-to-market and the
creation of new digital programs and mobile
initiatives, agile testing has grown in maturity
Growth and transformation from Test Centre of
Excellence to Digital Test Centre of Excellence
Research and many studies have indicated that
current QA and testing spend is 35% of IT Budget
and is expected to reach 40-50% by 2020
Test continuously to avoid sequencing all testing
activities at the end (Agile not waterfall)
