Cycle Time Reduction in Software Testing
نویسندگان
چکیده
istorically, many information systems (IS) organizations focused their attention on the quick delivery of systems rather than assuring that the software had been rigorously tested. Now, however, organizations are recognizing that it is more effective and less expensive to test for errors earlier in the systems development process (Parker, 1991). This “frontending” helps to decrease cycle time (Wetherbe, 1995). To obtain the greatest return on their investment, IS organizations must put greater emphasis on the systems testing process and implement it earlier in the development cycle (Bertolino, 1991).
