Test Management for Cloud Applications

The "cloud" can deliver services over the Internet in three flavors-software as a service (SaaS), platform as a service (PaaS), and infrastructure as a service (IaaS). Testing cloud services requires test managers to focus on more than classical functional testing to address additional risks-new Internet dependencies, different security challenges, and performance concerns-brought by the cloud. Ruud Teunissen shares the still-growing list of new concerns and risks with cloud services and explores ways to mitigate them with test-related actions. When selecting a cloud service provider and architecture, services must be tested against business and technical requirements. Prior to production, you can employ end-to-end regression tests to confirm that the cloud service operates as expected. Join Ruud and learn to identify specific requirements, risks, and test strategies for your company to migrate application to the cloud. Get a test management grip on selection and operation of cloud services and a jump-start in the widened scope of test management in the cloud.
