With the digital changeover, the demand for
quicker turnaround time on Quality
Assurance (QA) has greatly increased.
Hence, it is a crucial time for a QA and testing service
provider to be able to deliver and complete testing much
quicker. Moreover, the rapidly increasing user base of
mobile devices, browsers, and operating systems, is also
one of the major reasons behind the need for faster
turnaround time on QA. As a result, today, many
organizations are offering on-demand services including
compatibility testing, cross browser testing, mobile
testing, as well as performance and security testing
services. These services are the most integral part of any
sort of digital media or various web-based platforms and
applications.
In order to support the digital transformation, New York-
headquartered provides on-demandQA Mentor, Inc.
services, which allow its customers to experience a quick
turnaround time on test design and test cases execution
in a matter of just a few days. Moving forward with the
pace of the technological
revolution, the 2010 incepted ﬁrm
has also been recognized with
multifarious awards as a result of
its deep commitment towards
clients, employees, and supporters
around the globe. One of its
biggest achievements is winning
the prestigious “Leading Vendor
Award” at the “European Software
Testing Awards 2017.” Moreover,
QA Mentor has also been
appraised by CMMI Level 3,
which is an indicator of its
disciplined processes.
Excellent Solutions in Pipeline to
Support Expansion
Having a team that works with an
innovative approach, QA Mentor
has never failed to match with the
latest tech trends in the market. As
a part of its continuous innovation,
the ﬁrm has designed and
developed a product called “QAMometor” that it is
going to release in the second quarter of 2019. This
solution is all about metrics and KPIs that help measure
different productivity targets and maintain quality
throughout the software development lifecycle.
Moreover, this platform will include over 50 different
metrics and KPIs for several different departments.
In addition, QA Mentor is planning to come up with a
service focusing on providing the localization testing
used to conduct testing on different language
translations, as most of the applications are getting
translated into different languages. As an advantage of
this move, QA Mentor will have the localization testing
available on demand for various languages all around the
world. It will utilize its crowdsourcing community to test
from 123 countries in the world. Further, it would also be
able to translate and verify translation of any of the
applications to those languages and as a result, its
customers and clients will have much more opportunities
from QA Mentor in terms of a wider and more global
testing coverage. Moreover, in the
next 24 months, the achiever team
of CMMI Level 3, targets to
achieve the Level 5 appraisal.
Empowering Startups with
Economical Tools
QA Mentor is presently serving
382 clients from Fortune 500 to
various startups in 28 countries. To
empower startup organizations, the
company is planning to launch a
package service. Considering
startups’ limited budgets, the
projected package will be a
comprehensive and extremely
economical solution for QA.
Moreover, as organizations need to
invest a lot in buying licenses for
test management solutions, QA
Mentor promises to provide its test

that, the customer-oriented entity
will also provide startups with
open source solutions in
automation performance testing
and security testing, which does
not require them to spend any
money on licenses.
A Seasoned Persona Leading QA
Mentor by Example
Ruslan Desyatnikov, the
Founder, President, and CEO of
QA Mentor, is an industry veteran
who has over 20 years of
experience in Quality Assurance,
Quality Control, Process
Improvement, and Software
Testing. According to Ruslan, the
proudest achievement of his career
was at HSBC Bank when he was
managing 150 member’s testing
team distributed in around 12
different countries. Back then, it was also the most
challenging for Ruslan as he successfully supported over
120 different applications in different time zones,
cultures, and countries.
Asked to describe himself, he competent leader said that
the three traits that come to mind are fearful,
motivational, and disciplined, which also describe his
leadership style. At QA Mentor, Ruslan motivates his
team with supportive compliments and constantly
challenges them to grow to improve their career.
Similarly, he never hesitates in providing constructive
criticism when something goes wrong as he is a highly
disciplined person and expects the same from everyone.
Ruslan asserts, “I like to follow our established
approaches and I don’t like to compromise quality.”
The Belief in “No Rest for the Best”
The team at QA Mentor doesn’t believe in the possibility
of knowing it all, therefore they never stop learning.
Moreover, each member of the team is committed to
keeping up with cutting-edge technologies and process
methodologies, which get them
ahead of the game. At the current
stage, QA Mentor is testing
disruptive technologies such as
artificial intelligence & machine
learning and supporting a number
of clients with the platforms based
on them. Apart from that, Internet
of Things (IoT) and Big Data are
also the areas where the ever-
upgrading firm is using its tools.
Further, QA Mentor looks ahead to
provide the blockchain testing
services, for which it already has
several customers around.
“Inspiration has always been
there for people who love what
they do…”
When asked about what is the
inspiration behind his great work,
the motivational personality,
Ruslan uttered, “Inspiration has always been there for
people who love what they do.” As he had entered in the
testing field and started testing as a junior tester, he went
through all different stages wearing various hats. While
expressing his love towards the field of testing, he said,
“Since the start of my career, when I used to work for
other companies, there was not a single day when I
didn’t want to go to work.” Ruslan also has a lot of
interesting ideas, which he has not yet materialized and
that still motivates him to complete the work ahead. In
addition, seeing satisfied clients is also a great source of
motivation for Ruslan and his team.
While discussing the QA Mentor team’s mantra to
success, “We never stop at our accomplishments or our
awards, we don’t look back. We only look forward,” the
CEO says.
Concurring Growth Challenges like a Pro
For QA Mentor, the biggest challenges today are
associated with the growth. Expanding year after year at
the average rate of 35%, in the present year, Ruslan is

anticipating a much higher growth seeing the enhancing
demands from the existing clients. In order to serve the
growing demands of clients, QA Mentor is hiring talents
to strengthen its workforce. Similarly, to conduct the
post-hiring processes smoothly, it has worked on an
onboarding testing program for new joiners, which also
helps them to understand the company’s methodologies,
best practices, tools, and internal processes. For that
reason QA Mentor has built an e-learning training
system for all the new hires, to train them in a much
quicker way and get them ready to support and adapt QA
Mentor methodologies and best practices.
Words of Experience for Wantrepreneurs
While considering what he could have done better in the
case of QA Mentor, Ruslan suggests two major things to
all the want-to-be entrepreneurs. First is to start it as
soon as possible. As Ruslan took much time to establish
QA Mentor with an intention to be pro in the ﬁeld and
then start his own endeavor, he recommends starting a
business much sooner. The second thing he advises is to
make the proper and required amount of investment. In
the initial phase of his venture, Ruslan started it without
any kind of ﬁnancial backups, such as investor’s money
or loans; instead, he used his own money to do it, which
inhibited the initial speed of growth for QA Mentor.
Having faced that, he suggests that the budding
entrepreneurs invest wisely for accelerated expansion in
the business idea they believe in strongly.
At QA Mentor, we
seek out individuals
with a wide variety of
industry knowledge
and expertise to add
value to each of our
projects and to help

results.

Artificial Intelligence (AI) systems are
proliferating across industries, moving away
from the buzz to industrialised
implementations. Financial services, telecom, retail,
logistics, media are examples of industries where AI has
begun to be embedded into mainstream applications.
Examples like fraud detection and fraud management,
revenue assurance, rendering the right content through
search, already have AI built into it, without us realising
it.
However, as it gets more mature, and easier to
implement, and as industries get adventurous with trying
out newer use cases for AI implementations, there comes
the accompanying risks of releasing untested AI systems.
International businesses and regulators, whilst realising
the benefits, are also mindful of the potential risks &
unintended consequences.
Here are 5 risks one needs to worry about:
Technology Risks
The risks brought to fore by the diversity of platforms
(Google AI, Azure AI, IBM Watson or Amazon AI),
model marketplaces (Acumos, Kaggle amongst others),
and lack of wide scale expertise and knowledge of AI
technologies.
Data Risks
AI deals with data, and the ability to ’learn’ from
existing data. In most cases risks around data hinge
around, the integrity of the data, sufficiency of data to
train and possible biases in the available datasets. An
example could be deploying AI systems with poorly
trained samples (skewed data sets) or insufficiently
trained with possible real-world examples.
Experts’ Views

Regulatory Risks
Data in today’s day and age, needs to be carefully
managed and used for the right purposes. Data use
regulations (GDPR for example) – impose demands like
protection of privacy to usage within geographical
boundaries, which can also bring in its own set of risks
that need to be mitigated. Examples could be how
applications use AI is to make decisions in highly
regulated environments like Healthcare (diagnosis for
example) and Finance (investment decisions for
example) and its legal or regulatory impact, would need
to managed.
Model Behaviour Risks
When using pre-trained models, there are risks
associated with the appropriateness of the underlying
algorithms being used and its suitability to the business
context, the accuracy & precision of the predictions,
possible biases creeping into the model that need to be
mitigated. For example models pretrained on data from
particular country may provide wrong outcomes when
used in another country.
Privacy & Ethical Risks
In today’s world, there is an increasing fear that the
insights that systems provide should not be inherently
biased and thus wrongly inﬂuence the outcomes. An
example of privacy abuse is using faces of people who
have not consented to their images being used to train
facial recognition systems. Another example of violation
of ethics, is if racial or class bias creeps into the way the
algorithms work due to the skew in the training data.
At , we believe that before deploying AILast Mile
systems, an effective test strategy that would encompass
and prioritize the impact of the above risks and tailor the
testing needs accordingly must be put in place.

Technology has played its part very well and the
world today is digitalized to an extent as never
before. Over the past couple of years, the digital
media industry has experienced unparalleled growth, and
studies predict promising double-digit growth of it.
Technology development has increased visual effects
(VFX) implementation in both big-budget films and
regional cinema. With cinema & television, video games,
and marketing embracing VFX technology, the market will
be transformed to a whole new level. The increasing
interest for VFX in the media and entertainment industry
combined with the usage of VFX strategies for cost pay by
financial specialists are the key driving variable of the
worldwide impacts of visual effects in the market. VFX
have transformed the media and entertainment industry
drastically over the past decades. Simply a comparison of
40 year old movie with the current one can prove this
drastic change.
Mostly, VFX were used in movies, but the present
television industry is also adapting to it to strengthen the
story and artistic vision and communicate the desired idea
to the audience. Due to the global consumers’ demands for
engaging high definition visual experiences, many
filmmakers are demanding high-quality productions with
engaging visual effects and realistic animations. Presently,
many studios are including more animation and VFX shots
into films to satisfy the filmmakers’ requests. In addition,
the demand for animation and VFX content to power
immersive experiences such as Augmented Reality and
Virtual Reality is growing exponentially. The rapid
advancement of technology has made animation and VFX
available to the masses, and this industry has become one of
the fastest growing segments in the global media and
entertainment market.

The Canvas Of
Escalating Competition in Global VFX Market
The global VFX market is developing at a rapid pace and
over the next few years, there is likely to be intense
competition among key players. The leading players on the
VFX market are making ardent efforts to improve the
products that are expected to ensure overall market growth
in the coming years.
Furthermore, innovations and technological advances in
this area are encouraging market growth. The key
companies engaged in the VFX market across the globe are
Red Giant Software, CoSA VFX, Animal Logic, Foundry
Visionmongers, Whiskytree, Weta Digital, FuseFX, Vision
Effects, Inc., Worldwide FX,
Zoic Studio, Method Studios, Blackmagic Fusion, Video
Copilot, Absolute Post, Eight VFX, and Genarts.
VFX Crafting a photorealistic CG Digital Character
The unspoken goal of the VFX industry has always been to
create a photorealistic CG Digital Character that is so
realistic that the audience cannot tell the difference between
the character of the CG and the real one.
Paul Walker in Furious 7 and Grand Moff Tarkin in Rouge
One were the best examples of a realistic CG character.
Furthermore, the director planned to make use of
photorealistic computer-generated characters, created using
new motion capture animation technologies. Hence, a
technically challenging scene was near the end of the film
when the computer-generated Neytiri held the live-action
Jake i.e. actor in human form, and attention was given to
the details of the shadows and reflected light between them.
Therefore, with the goal of creating more and more realistic
CG character, one can easily expect the upcoming 2019
films to have much better CG characters. In addition to this,
27

make-up artists will play a major role in addition to the
photorealistic CG technology.
Improving Tools and Techniques in Visual Effects
The modes and tools of creation are continuously evolving.
VFX training must play a major role in film industry
development. The development of new machines and soft
wares changes the way one would have edited earlier.
Before visual effects were not developed this smoothly, the
people working in the visual effects had to manipulate
scenes with different techniques. The news tools and
softwares are making editing easier for humans.
Furthermore, the motion control cameras are used when one
wants to replicate a camera motion for compositing, capture
high-speed activity and high frame rate that needs to be
exposed in slow motion through some added association.
With the increase in the digital environment and 3D sets, a
3D camera provides all the motion data that can be plugged
into a motion-controlled camera. Along with that, the
motion forbidden camera acts like a robot and works
according to the data it got starting the 3D camera.
Virtual Reality (VR) enters a new phase as nearly all of the
tech companies are mounting VR contents and strategy to
attract the audiences. Similarly, creating virtual places,
characters or things capture enables the viewer to
experience new things in a completely different world.
Furthermore, invisible effects are not as unseen that one
may imagine of it. However, there’s a very less likelihood
of viewers to observe it. With all undetectable effects, VFX
artists can now fix miniature continuance errors, set issues,
dress issue, and even the makeup.
Some of the Eye-catchy Movies utilizing VFX for
storytelling
Ant-Man and the Wasp
Visual effects for this film were created by various VFX
companies such as DNEG, Scanline VFX, Method Studios,
Luma Pictures, Lola VFX, Industrial Light & Magic, etc.
DNEG worked on over 500 shots, including the effects for
Ghost which was shared with the other vendors in the third
act chase sequence, and the final Ghost fight as Hank and
Janet are returning from the quantum realm. DNEG
ultimately created 130 unique environments for the chase.
First Man
To create the images that would be displayed on the LED
screens, Terragen, a scenery generation program, was used
in the First Man. Additionally, archival footage such as that
of an Apollo launch was used in a 70mm military stock that
had not been used before. These shots were then cleaned up
and extended on each side of the frame.
Avatar
Although this movie is old, but there is a great need to
mention this marvelous adventure, which has considerably
revolutionized the VFX to the brand new level. James
Cameron’s threw everything into this 2009 space epic. The
most advanced technology of its time, Cameron invented
his own techniques to bring the world of Pandora and its
blue-skinned inhabitants to the big screen.
Avatar was the first mainstream movie to combine both
photorealistic backgrounds and motion-captured characters.
It made the film an epic adventure that completely washed
the line between live-action and animation without taking
the audience out of the movie. It was also the first
production to use real-time animation to show live feedback
as what the mo-capped performers would like as their
virtual characters.
Conclusion
The VFX will soon rule the media and entertainment
industry. In the future, there can be the presence of virtual
reality for everyone as well as people can do anything in
that virtual world. Furthermore, it is little by little reducing
the border between reality and virtual world. The
transformation from reality to virtual will become a
milestone for humans. With more such VFX-rich content
being rolled out, not just movies but also other platforms
are utilizing it to reach the world audience. Therefore,
today’s media and entertainment industry is enhanced or
one can say overloaded with the amazing VFX technologies
that can bring almost anything to life.

Nowadays you cannot read a magazine, or it
contains an article stipulating the importance of
(big) data. However, what does this mean in
concrete terms for a sports organisation to accommodate
this evolution?
Challenges in sports
Traditional sports participation is changing, and sports
organisations are faced with the challenge to keep the sport
attractive but also manageable as people shy away from
committing themselves to traditional leagues/tournaments
mostly due to changing lifestyles and increasing scarcity of
time of players and volunteers. Sports organisations need to
adapt to the fast-changing digital environment while
meeting the social demands of players. Significant
challenges are: How do I keep, increase, engage and
facilitate my members?
Even more important is that government bodies from many
grassroots sports do not control their “own” data. Local
representatives of the sport and their clubs increasingly
manage their own game by the use of external software
vendors that are not in “control” by the original owner of
the competition. The consequence is that these owners are
losing their added value because they don’t produce any
insights nor can manage and uphold their position as the
governing body. It is precisely by managing, evaluating,
distributing and commercialising relevant data that gains
insight to control present and future issues, also removing
the stigma of merely being a hub between the insurance
corporations and members of the sport.
Custom-made or ready-made solutions
Each sports organisations’ aim should be to streamline
processes and improve management tasks by Data. Quick,
accurate and continuous insight into data from and within
day-to-day-processes, will significantly enhance
management tasks in all layers within a sports organisation.
Data enables engagement with all the people that have an
interest or connection to the sport, being a player, coach,
fan or parent. So, it is without a doubt crucial that sports
organisations have ownership of accurate and updated data
to carry out useful insights that ideally drive a sport to
grow, broaden it’s fanbase and allowing to be self-
sustainable from a commerce point of view.
Gaining control of data is necessary. The difficulty that
arises from this insight is that large organisations invest
millions in custom-made software where most sports
organisations do not have the financial resources to build an
entirely new platform or “eco-system” of digital channels
such as websites, apps, narrowcasting and tv. Hence, the
reason that most persist in embracing sports software
vendors that control their data, while they alone benefit
from it by continually being a transaction between VC’s and
payment facilitators.
How To Gain Control Of
DATA

Experts’ Views

Putting data at the core of your design
These days, any club can have a responsive website online
using WordPress or other solution within the hour. The
equivalent applies for a variety of solutions that provides
online payment or registration. Instead of developing or
licensing a software solution that competes with this fast-
growing technologic evolution, sports organisers should
embrace it by allowing their stakeholders to use different
software solutions.
By looking at the essence of its’ organisation, defining
which data is most relevant and therefore a necessity to gain
control of, and which data may easily be mastered and
obtained from other vendors, sports organisations are able
to make much more efficient choices.
Knowing that data is obtained by input, not a list of
software features or functionalities, but integration and
communication options should determine the choice for
software selection or development. A decision for a
software solution should, therefore, be made upon an API-
model.
Competitions API
So what are APIs? An API (Application Programming
Interface) is essentially a gateway that allows software to
talk to other software – and also defines how that
conversation takes place.
Thanks to the use of an API an organisation can decide for
itself which data to disclose. A competitions API would be
the solution and will allow a high level of integration for
existing sports software. The API opens all management,
registration, informational and results-entry options, any
sport organisers would need for its stakeholders, even if
implementing and benefitting from a full platform might be
a step too far.

The multiple device lifestyles have become a regular
occurrence for consumers who are living in the
dynamically changing digital age. This change has
brought enormous possibilities as well as functions and
with those of consumers’ expectations on the table.
Nowadays, it is very easy for consumers to use Amazon,
eBay, or other digital e-Commerce stores to buy products
from these portals and receive an exceptional experience.
However, most of these buyers do not know about the
precise work behind the curtains to provide these
capabilities from the e-Commerce companies.
Their proficiency has been enhanced in recent times and the
companies can efficiently forecast the position of customers
in the sales cycles. By utilizing this information, companies
can provide better offers and estimate its buyers’ behavior.
All this exercise comes under “omnichannel” experience,
which is a step forward in the marketing practices, and
accepted as the new way of practice.
Multichannel: The Start of a Consumer-Oriented Era
Since the beginning of marketing in the modern world,
consumers started to find companies by multiple channels.
Earlier accomplished by print, billboards and driven
physically, but nowadays it is attained through websites.
This provides vital information to the enterprises that the
consumers have many paths to reach. If a business does not
fulfill these multichannel requirements, then they are
creating a vast vacuum which will be filled by their rivals
and would lead to disaster for their businesses. In fact, the
digital transformation is providing more fuel to the
emergence of new platforms and devices every day.
Therefore, it is very important for companies to utilize
analytical data to understand customer behavior and their
favorite digital platforms. With this information, enterprises
can target frequently used multiple channels and become
more visible to the customers. If customers can find their
products or services, which they like, then they will build a
connection with those products, and ultimately will lead
them to become loyal to a specific brand.
The Age of Cross-Channel Marketing
Gaining customer loyalty is important to gain momentum
and growth in the business, but it is not as easy as it looks
like. Consumers of digital age expect more from e-
Commerce enterprises. They ask for more personalized web
experiences, specifically on mobile phones. Various reports
recently provided vital data of mobile users and conveyed
that the number of smartphone users is increasing year by
year and will continue to grow further in a significant way.
It also pinpoints that smartphone users are heavily
dependent on their devices and their perception is changing
about interaction, involvement, and business.
This makes consumers more aware of what they want and
how they want it. Most of the smartphone users expect
companies to provide their services through apps. These
users choose online platforms for shopping with the help of
the benchmarks set by them. Hence, a company should be
dependable when it comes to the company’s statement,
product information, pricing, and other facts, regardless of
consumer’s attitude towards them. This is where cross
channel marketing comes into the picture.

Creating a Successful Omnichannel Experience
For businesses, a customer who utilizes a multi-channel is
always important than a single-channel user. Those who
shop online and in-store are more beneficial for businesses.
Hence, to gain from that group of customers, a company
needs proper structure as well as its departments must
coordinate effortlessly. On top of that, there are things that
need to be considered to create a successful omnichannel
experience.
Firstly, a business has to comprehend its consumers.
Businesses can gain more insights with involvement in
research, data gathering, and executing tests. Most
importantly, gathering analytical data and making sure to
take precise information and understand the customers will
assist in constructing a proper strategy which will attract the
buyers. The strategy should be based according to
customers’ expectations. Creating presence on various
social media platforms and posting about the product
offerings is also beneficial for the e-commerce
organizations. In today’s era, an uncomplicated return
policy has become an integral part of the omnichannel
experience. It is also important for businesses to have an
idea on the catalog, regardless of their expertise in the
industry. The CRM system will help individuals to track
and hold data, and assist to deliver unique customer service
experience.
Cross channel marketing is a way to show a company’s
marketing consistency on every platform. The webpage of a
firm should appear same on different devices such as
desktop, laptop, mobile device, mobile app, in-store screen
and kiosks and it should be felt by consumers in a constant
manner and they should be able to distinguish it from other
companies.
Further, their shopping experience from mobile should be
accessible and start from where they left last time, even if
they switch to another device. The companies are trying
hard to give the next step awesome experience to the
consumers. There is a way to do that, which is
“omnichannel”.
Omnichannel: The Next Level of Marketing Strategy
It is evident that consumers leave behind their digital
footprint while browsing the internet. This analytical data
provides vital information to understand the customer, most
importantly, what ticks them and fulfills them. These
insights give an opportunity to communicate with
consumers on a more personal level by understanding their
wishes and requirements.
An omnichannel experience does not stop at providing a
consistent experience on all channels and it also
incorporates occurrences such as consumers starting their
journey on one device, leaving in the middle and later on
starting from where they left off the last time. The journey
does not end there. Taking a follow-up on their experience
during this process and taking suggestions on how to
improve its services gives organizations an upper hand in
customer satisfaction. Besides, companies can request
consumers to join their social media page, alluring them
with coupons and exciting offers which further makes more
impact on them. An omnichannel experience also shows the
choices left by the customer while shopping, which is
present in an online shopping cart. Utilizing that
information, an offer such as coupon, can be sent on that
product to attract customers for shopping.
