Description:

Businesses are more reliant than ever on the quality of their customer-facing applications. To achieve higher quality, faster time-to-market, and lower costs a growing number of customers are choosing to outsource testing to an independent supplier. As a result, the market for outsourced testing services is booming.

However, choosing an outsourcing supplier for testing is complicated by a number of factors, including the willingness to adapt existing, internal processes and activities to an outsourced model and the possible need to manage outsourced development and testing relationships separately.

Agenda:

• How today's emphasis on quality, time to market, and cost control is driving growth in the outsourced testing market
• The emergence of the independent quality assurance market and principal market trends
• How to outsource testing services successfully
• What SVM professionals should look for in selecting an external testing supplier
