Testing Recommendations

Forrester also offered recommendations for teams seeking to achieve a high degree of automation. Forrester recommends teams look for providers that:

  • Embed testing into the software development life cycle to optimize the release time and identify quality issues faster. This includes functional, performance, service virtualization, and API testing.
  • Use a consolidated and unified testing suite.
