Quality must move beyond the purview of just the testing organization and must become an integrated part of the entire software development life cycle (SDLC) to reduce schedule-killing rework, improve user satisfaction, and reduce the risks of untested nonfunctional requirements such as security and performance. Vendors have taken note and look to provide tools that support every role in the organization, considerably broadening the testing tools landscape.

7. But problems increase your risk and costs … Performance: It only takes a moment to lose customers 74% of surveyed customers shop online…. …. Yet 54% abandon shopping carts, a continuing plague for online vendors vendors Security Online banking: the future is now 90.5 million Americans now bank online….. ….Yet less than half of customers feel secure about their institutions’ security Scalability 70% of auto policies renew in January The global Internet population is now 1.6B and expects to grow another 42% by 2014 Do you have the right team in place?
8. In 2010 more money was directed to toward growth and expansion – don’t let poor performance shift dollars away from innovation Poor quality diverts focus
12. How will you change your behaviors to improve your approach to testing?? How will you “Change your ways”? Challenges in testing are growing Performance, Data privacy, compliance Testing as usual won’t work today Early testing is imperative Teams look different because testing approaches have to change IT budgets look better, but must bring value Companies want greater flexibility for their $$$ Automation MUST bring value for the money invested Testing is ripe for SaaS 21% are piloting SaaS for IT lifecycle components 26% are planning to adopt within the next year
14. Testing can begin from day one to prevent defects Post Mortem Deployment Business determinesobjectives, sets requirements End to end testing UAT Business stakeholders, BAs & test team set quality and performance requirements for functional and non functional requirements Development &testing continues Continuous build and integrationContinuous testingmanual and automated Static and automated performance testing starts Design and developmentbased upon requirements Set test planning & Automation strategy
15. Use automation to keep up with change Capital investments are scrutinized Infrastructure and environments are challenged Ramp up time takes too long Usability is a requirement Quick time to value is a necessity Performance testing is cyclical but non negotiable Testing is an enabler Environment sans constraints
24. Recommendations Don’t leave performance testing to the end. Problems will grow as business options expand Anticipate the unexpected Life is what happens while you’re busy making other plans Leverage automation and timing Flexible tools to performance-test, “just in time”

Common Mistake:Organizations think that performance management/testing is only an IT problemBusiness team is not asked to (or able to) provide key web metrics to inform the load test planBusiness team is not informing (or being asked to inform) IT of performance objectives to allow for business goals to be metBusiness team not informing IT of business/traffic growth projections for “next year”IT is not open to involving business inputIT has to be honest about their ability to deliver what they have to deliver with what they haveImpact on Business:“Successful” load test; unsuccessful peak traffic eventLessons Learned (case example):Retail Brand Alliance – regular testing with business involvement allows for confidence, sales success, and more effective planning for next year.???
