Software development in this day and age has taken a new dimension with numerous technologies and delivery models. Test management is an essential part of SDLC and the test organization demands a streamlined environment to achieve quality results. This would mean established testing processes and frameworks, an optimal combination of resources and a solution customized to completely transform the testing function. This would help organizations achieve their quality goals cost effectively and without losing the overall control.

Managed testing service is an end-to-end solution that will help an enterprise top quality product – in time and in budget. It will provide predictability to testing and look at the testing function holistically. It will determine the right MTS solution for an enterprise based on an assessment of the current state maturity and determine a structure to achieve quality results. MTS also offers adaptable solutions to meet the enterprise’s changing needs.

However a well-oiled MTS process is applicable to an organization that has achieved a certain degree of maturity and seeks a higher level of modularization in their software lifecycle. Managed testing is an outsourced function with people, infrastructure and systems managed by the service provider to support the customer’s business processes.
