iTKO Webinar Archive: Accelerating Modern Application Quality, October 27, 2009
|
The ability to rapidly develop enterprise applications has increased measurably and is outpacing conventional testing processes. The advent of SOA and service based computing has produced an increasing level of complexity and change throughout the application development lifecycle, threatening the quality and reliability of critical business software.
Addressing the risks inherent in this new paradigm of distributed applications requires a new approach to quality that is shared across development, testing and delivery teams. Infosys brings decades of testing best practices and expertise to this challenge, and is leveraging iTKO's LISA software suite as an important enabler behind their Application Test and Validation offerings. This combination of Infosys and iTKO LISA enables modern application projects to achieve higher quality, faster time-to-market, and lower costs throughout the software lifecycle, by employing Complete, Collaborative, Continuous and Constraint-Free testing and virtualization practices.
During this one hour webinar, you will gain insight into:
- Current software quality trends in the industry today and why a new approach is needed for testing today's distributed, modern applications
- How Infosys provides the right testing coverage for distributed, middle tier application infrastructures leveraging iTKO's LISA product suite
- How F1000 companies delivered new applications below budget and ahead of schedule using the strengths of Infosys and iTKO's LISA.
The webinar will be delivered by iTKO's founder and Chief Scientist John Michelsen, and Aparna Sharma, Head of Client Services, Independent Validation and Testing Services, Infosys Technologies.
Appropriate for architects, QA, development, and project managers, this webinar will help you learn how to speed time to market for your business applications, while minimizing project risk and cost.
