paper

Outsourced software development and testing has become a common practice that continues to experience significant growth. However, many organizations have learned the hard way that lower outsourced hourly staff rates do not translate into linear costs savings, and that although reducing costs is important, avoiding quality problems, schedule delays, and the associated risks are even more important.

This white paper addresses the many challenges of managing accountability across distributed development and QA teams, keeping those teams highly productive, and assuring that their deliverables meet the larger requirements of a complex, distributed system. Organizations that want to realize the full benefits of their outsourcing initiatives should evaluate the approaches to collaborative testing, continuous validation, and parallel development/testing using resource virtualization described in this whitepaper.
