Do You Know Your Cost of Rework? voke Publishes New Research on Reducing the Cost of Rework



Are you aware of what your cost of rework is for your software? Yes, the very software that runs your business and is an integral part of your brand promise.



Most organizations are either not aware or not interested in what the cost of rework means. However, this cavalier stance to the cost of rework is dangerous. Each and every software project has an associated cost of rework – that is the cost involved with removing defects. The later in the lifecycle a defect is discovered, the more expensive it is to remediate. Defects create the hidden cost of rework in every software project.



The new voke Strategic BriefTM Report: Reducing the Cost of Rework highlights:

  • The business impact of defect leakage with real-world use cases
  • The cost of rework models for both Agile and non-Agile projects
  • Ways to test earlier to reduce rework and its costs



The Strategic BriefTM Report: Reducing the Cost of Rework is available here or at www.vokeinc.com for subscribers.



Get this report to learn how to reduce rework in your software projects.

API Testing – Stop Waiting and Start Testing ASAP!

We have all heard that testers must keep pace with developers to deliver software faster. However, most testers continue to test at the UI level – which is constantly changing, so testers have to wait, and that impacts the ability to meet business demands for faster software releases. It becomes a cycle that testers have a hard time escaping. Testers want to be able to test earlier, reduce risk, and identify defects sooner – all to satisfy the customer. API testing is the perfect way to supplement traditional UI testing, keep pace with development, and deliver better quality at scale!  API testing can help you test earlier, faster, and more efficiently! And now, we have the data to show you the benefits of API testing including how much time is spent on UI testing alone, how much (or should I say little) time is spend on unit and API testing, and how much coverage is achieved.  We will be premiering the results of our recent survey on API testing in a webinar wi...

Is HP Getting Serious About Lifecycle Virtualization?

HP Announces Intent to Acquire Network Virtualization Business and Technology of Shunra  I s HP Getting Serious About Lifecycle Virtualization? In a quiet blog post on the evening of March 4, 2014, HP announced that it had signed a definitive agreement to acquire the network virtualization business and technology of Shunra , a current HP partner. The HP blog post continues to outline the benefits the Shunra technology will bring to its mobile software testing business. The blog post ends with an almost cryptic mention of expanding the use of the Shunra technology to other HP products and services such as service virtualization . Service virtualization, indeed, is where the Shunra technology will mesh well with HP offferings. Service virtualization is defined by voke as: Enabling development and test teams to simulate and model their dependencies of unavailable or limited services. Removes constraints and wait times frequently experienced by development and test teams...

Your Next PC? The Personal Cloud, of Course Since the introduction of the personal computer, we all like to longingly think about what our next PC will have. Will it be lighter? Will it have better graphics? Will it be faster? And the biggest question of all, do we really need all of the latest and greatest features. All of these are questions we ponder when a new operating system is released, or when our current PC just decides to quit functioning (usually at the most inopportune of times). Well, what will your next PC be? No, it is not your next Personal Computer, it is your Personal Cloud! That’s right, the next PC you invest in may well be a Personal Cloud. The Apple iPad is just the beginning of this move from the Personal Computer to the Personal Cloud. With the iPad, Apple has hit a grand slam, scored a hattrick, a touchdown, or any other superlative sports metaphor you can conjure up. The iPad is the next step in the computing revolution. If you think Steve Jobs, the Roark of t...
