New survey uncovers the best practices and business benefits of continuous testing
Tricentis, the world’s number one continuous testing platform for modern cloud and enterprise applications, today published “Modernize Testing to Accelerate Your Business,” a study exploring the priorities of companies that have made great strides along their testing transformation journeys.
Conducted by Forrester Consulting on behalf of Tricentis, the study is based on a survey of 186 application development and delivery leaders at companies doing continuous testing. The survey found that leaders realise tangible business benefits when they follow best testing practices like automation and shifting left.
The report’s key findings include the following:
Testing transformation delivers improved productivity, agility, and experience
Improving speed with quality is key to delivering better experiences and business agility
Fixating only on speed can negatively impact the customer experience
Even continuous testing leaders sometimes struggle to keep pace with evolving customer needs
Leaders turn to third-party service providers to support their testing transformation efforts
“Traditional testing approaches are slow, which is why modern testing approaches and technologies have made inroads in the market, supporting trends like continuous delivery,” said Wolfgang Platz, founder and chief strategy officer at Tricentis. “In fact, by transforming to a state of continuous testing where the business, testers, and developers all contribute to build in quality from the start, many companies achieve the desired goal to deliver faster, and with quality. As this study shows, companies that have made testing a priority have seen improvements in business agility, as well as in employee and customer experience.”

Additionally, Tricentis founder and chief strategy officer Wolfgang Platz will be co-presenting the findings of the study with Forrester analyst Diego Lo Giudice in a webinar on September 23.
