The “Continuous” in Testing: What’s Involved?

Executive Summary

Continuous Testing does not mean do more of the same “bottom-up” tasks with greater automation. To achieve a real-time, objective assessment of the business risks associated with a release candidate, organizations must consider the efficacy of test artifacts and analysis techniques that ultimately drive the assessment of quality or risk.

Consider this: if software quality efforts have traditionally been a “time-boxed” exercise, then we can’t possibly expect that accelerating the SDLC will yield better results from a testing perspective. If organizations want to accelerate software releases, they must reassess the current testing practices in order to keep quality as status quo. However, in order to improve software quality in conjunction with SDLC acceleration, organizations will have to truly consider re-engineering the process of creating quality software.

As you begin the transformation from automated testing to Continuous Testing, the following elements are necessary for achieving a real-time assessment of business risks.
