Competitive pressures have made technology a critical resource and put a premium on speed to market.
As a result, organizations are moving quickly to implement new technologies, often too quickly so that they arrive to market with underperforming applications that burden rather than benefit their business and technology infrastructures.
Accenture research reveals that this need not be the case: enterprises that adopt proven practices for testing can expect to save up to 50 percent through test automation, productivity improvement, resource reallocation and labor savings. High-performance businesses gain these cost and execution efficiencies along with the benefits of getting to market faster with proven applications that work the first time.
In this paper, Accenture examines the five steps that mark the evolution toward excellence in application testing. At the heart of this journey lies a commitment to continuous tracking and testing of process improvements on the basis of results and actual business benefits delivered. Ascending this evolutionary ladder of testing maturity can help organizations achieve high performance and yield dramatic return on investment.
