• Quality of User Experience and Usability– Web and Mobile products must be intuitive to navigate, merchandised well,

and fun to use. The public verdict is quick and decisive more than ever.

• Compatibility challenges– Jungle of Devices, Platforms, Browsers and Operating Systems

• Fluctuation in capacity of required Testing Resources– It’s incredibly expensive and inefficient to build in-house or off-shore QA teams

that can effectively test a variety of globally available online products and environments

• Internationalization and Localization– Wide variety of markets with different preferences and expectations.

“Google added uTest to the mix to bring a fresh approach to black-box testing in a wide variety of environments and to benefit from uTest’s global stable of testers”

“Using uTest allows Google to be as specific as ‘testing a BlackBerry on a specific carrier in Turkey’ without affecting the bottom line.”

“Traditional test cycles and traditional test outsourcing are simply not sufficient to ensure that you’re delivering a quality product adaptable enough to fit all possible customer scenarios.”

“Today’s model has to be elastic — which means that in designing your testing processes, you must look for alternative testing services, be aware of the ‘shelf life’ of your team’s capability and explore using unconventional service business models.”

“One-size-fits-all test outsourcing is dead”
