- 3. Overview –Brief Intro to Automated QA/Testing –Using Worksoft Certify –Question and Answer –Next Steps
- 4. Value Proposition Automated testing radically alters the economics of quality Removes technical barriers for wider participation Expands test coverage across applications & platforms Reduces implementation overhead Reduces lifetime cost of ownership
- 5. Time to value • New idea – Market Opportunity – Market share – Business Process redesign • Software needs to be developed – How long can that take? • Requirements • Analysis, Design, Code • Test • Release • Make it shorter, • is the business demand
- 6. Business risk is increasing • Market pressure drives schedules • Functionality, complexity expanding • Applications exposed to customers Manual testing can’t keep pace • Time, resources and skills are limited • No reusability means decreasing coverage • Time, turnover cause loss of knowledge Production data must be obfuscated for testing • Compliance • Outsourcing/offshoring Automation is only answer • Increase coverage • Reduce time, resources Business Case For Change
- 7. Return on Investment Scripting / Manual 35% Testing 25% Requirements Analysts 40% Design & Development 35% Design & Development 25% Requirements Analysis Cost & Time Savings 17% Testing

- 10. Customer Case Studies Scripting tool after 2 years work: Only 2 out of 12 Member QA team could use script tool No business analysts could use scripting tool. “Q/A is a bottleneck.” Today with Certify: 12 out of 12 member QA team using Certify 50+ Business Analysts & users using Certify Before: One application took four months to test with scripting Today with Certify: 32 are tested in four months Training 2 weeks training per user on script programming language 80% Time savings & productivity gain 2 days class training per user No programming Design 3 months to learn how to design a reusable testing system 1 week to design processes, cycles, schedules & recordsets Reusability built into the repository Development 2 weeks script coding time per screen to validate all fields 4 hours to import screens, validation built-in No coding required Maintenance 4 hours per screen change, for impact analysis & modifying screen code 20 minutes to import new screens Impact analysis & script update is automatic
