Enhancing Quality and Test in Medical Device Design - Part 2.pdf

The document discusses predictions for the future of testing and QA. It predicts that test automation will significantly increase from 31% currently to become a major part of the QA process. It also predicts that testing responsibilities will move earlier in the development cycle, with more testing by developers and end users. Requirements testing will also improve with automation and new technologies that provide 100% test coverage and automatically generate test cases.

As more businesses apply Continuous Integration and Continuous Delivery (CI/CD) to release their software faster, Continuous testing becomes the final piece that completes a continuous development process. By automatically testing code right after developers submit it to the repository, testers can locate bugs before another line of code is written.

Al Wagner from IBM presented on the topic of "Test Automation: Investment today pays back tomorrow". The presentation discussed how test automation is an investment that can reduce testing time and costs. It emphasized that test automation requires planning, resources, and maintenance similar to a software development project. The presentation provided examples of how organizations were able to significantly reduce testing cycles and costs through implementing test automation and service virtualization strategies.

Nuevosoft Test Manager is a simplest and most effective test management solution in the industry. It helps improve testcase quality using innovative methods.

This document discusses requirements traceability and testing capabilities in Simulink. It describes how Simulink can trace requirements bidirectionally between models and source code. It also outlines how Simulink Design Verifier can automatically generate tests to achieve high coverage and check designs against requirements. Finally, it positions several MathWorks products in the V&V process and highlights key capabilities of Simulink Test for authoring, managing and executing simulation-based tests.

The document discusses quality assurance and testing in software development. It recommends establishing a quality assurance framework that incorporates source code management, continuous integration, code reviews, and continuous inspection tools like SonarQube. This helps automate the development process, reduce technical debt, and prevent bugs by finding and fixing issues early. Tracking key metrics also allows measuring the costs of quality problems versus prevention activities.

The document discusses quality assurance and testing in software development. It emphasizes the importance of establishing a quality assurance process that incorporates code reviews, continuous integration, and tools like SonarQube to measure code quality and technical debt. Having this framework helps prevent bugs, catch issues early, and ensures code quality throughout the development lifecycle to reduce costs associated with fixing defects later.

DevOps aims to bring development and operations teams closer together through automation, shared tools and processes. Automating builds improves consistency, reduces errors and improves productivity. Common issues with builds include them being too long, handling a large volume, or being too complex. Solutions include improving build speed, addressing long/complex builds through techniques like distributed builds, and using build acceleration tools. Automation is a key part of DevOps and enables continuous integration, testing and deployment.

This document provides an overview of testing methods for mainframe applications. It discusses how testing needs have changed from the past where testing involved examining batch job outputs or online screen outputs, to modern approaches like test automation, virtualization, and DevOps. It covers different levels of testing maturity and factors to consider when planning tests. Black box and white box testing techniques are described, such as model-based testing, use case testing, and debugging. The presentation emphasizes the importance of testing to ensure stability, reliability, and compliance with changing requirements.

This document provides information about an expert in Agile software development practices named Stephen Ritchie. It summarizes his experience, certifications, and areas of focus including Agile coaching. The document recommends practices for implementing Agile such as version control, continuous integration, automated testing, and deployment automation. It lists tools that can be used for each practice and recommends an order for implementation. The document also discusses benefits of practices like reduced defect rates and faster deployments.

This document discusses automating the software testing process to improve reliability. It notes that manual testing is time-consuming and error-prone, taking up 50% of software budgets. Automating unit testing, integration testing, code coverage analysis, traceability between tests and requirements, and regression testing can help address these issues. Test-driven development is presented as a philosophy that involves writing tests before code, improving quality and reducing costs by finding defects earlier. Automated tools can generate test harnesses, measure coverage, and link tests to requirements and code.

When you add new features to your application a lot of things can happen. Do you believe that the app is able to test itself by using automation? Just imagine testing everything manually due to that change. Do you know how many people will be needed to complete this process? The power of automated testing in the development lifecycle allows us things such as scheduling, and executing tests at any time with a big scope on thousands of mobile devices, websites and multiple browsers simultaneously making sure everything is working as expected.

Despite the belief that a shared context and collaboration drives quality, too often, software testers and quality professionals struggle to find their place within today's integrated agile teams. This session is a practitioner’s view of testing and testing practices within an iterative/incremental development environment. We will begin with a discussion of some of the challenges of testing within an agile environment and delve into the guiding principles of Agile Testing and key enabling practices. Agile Testing necessitates a change in mindset, and it is as much, if not more, about behavior, as it is about skills and tooling, all of which will be explored.

This document discusses continuous testing and provides an overview of key concepts. It defines continuous testing as executing automated tests as part of the software delivery pipeline to rapidly obtain feedback on release candidates. The benefits of continuous testing discussed include fast feedback, continuous visibility, and testing that matches different skill levels. It also covers topics like test authoring best practices, key performance indicators for continuous testing, and the potential future role of machine learning. Continuous testing is presented as a way to mature an organization's path toward DevOps practices.

This document discusses practices for continuous integration to improve software quality. It recommends analyzing workflows to find areas for automation. It also advocates for self-service builds and push-button deployments across environments. The document outlines patterns like committing code daily, enforcing code quality rules, and stopping broken builds quickly. It notes how continuous integration supports agile methods through daily feedback, using reports to continuously improve processes and quality over iterations.

This webinar explores the “secure-by-design” approach to medical device software development. During this important session, we will outline which security measures should be considered for compliance, identify technical solutions available on various hardware platforms, summarize hardware protection methods you should consider when building in security and review security software such as Trusted Execution Environments for secure storage of keys and data, and Intrusion Detection Protection Systems to monitor for threats.
