In today’s economy, CIOs need to delicately balance the drive toward business transformation with the management of business risk. In this seminar we’ll explore how modern software delivery teams enable quality management throughout the lifecycle, detecting defects early and in the process reducing cost and improving credibility. We’ll show how constant communication via a common and well-understood set of requirements—and quick responses to changes in those requirements—can infuse quality into software development right from the start. Finally, we’ll explore the role of diligent governance of the build and test execution processes to correct courses and allocate resources can help organizations become more flexible, address compliance regulations, react faster to changing marketplace conditions and, ultimately, drive business growth. In this unforgiving economy, success or failure often depends on one thing: whose product has the highest quality.
