How Azure can help - QA Test Labs
Goal: On-demand QA environments in Azure
that match our test matrixes.
Eliminate time lost on building
environments rather than on
testing your application.
Reduce risk and improve quality
by testing your test matrix with
production like environments.
Eliminate dependency and
“blocked” time waiting for
environments to be provisioned.
Optimize lab infrastructure
investments by paying only for
what you need and use
