The future of quality engineering

The pace of new technology adoption, particularly the Internet of Things (IoT), blockchain, and AI, continues to drive dramatic change in software development. But IT and product leaders eager to capitalize on these new technologies face a slew of quality delivery challenges. Rolling out new solutions quickly in this environment requires advanced upskilling, tighter coordination within and among teams, and a firm grip on the latest tools and methods available to the quality engineering function.

To capture the current mindsets of organizations and their quality engineering approaches, we surveyed over 200 senior executives with IT leadership roles across industries. We asked them what’s top of mind for their current quality engineering practices, the trends they are excited about, investments they are making, and the challenges they are facing.

Our inaugural quality engineering trends report explores the top concerns, considerations, and opportunities identified by survey respondents and provides practical takeaways for making the most of these trends.
