Overview
Quality Engineering (QE) has gained prominence with the shift to agile and DevOps. Companies are transitioning from traditional Quality Assurance (QA) processes to embrace a more agile and scalable application development approach. QE integrates software development and IT operations teams, eliminates silos, and embeds security at every step of the application development process. However, this is just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to the advantages of shifting from QA to QE. This transition represents a cultural shift within organizations and development teams, paving the way for more efficient, collaborative, and secure software delivery.
In our whitepaper, “A Seamless and Successful Transition from Quality Assurance to Quality Engineering,” we delve deep into the transformative journey from QA to QE. We explore how QE enhances the application development process, the fundamental differences between QA and QE, and the driving trends that make QE a preferred approach in modern software development.
In this whitepaper we cover:
- Quality Engineering in the New Era of Application Development Process: Discover how QE redefines the application development process in the agile and DevOps landscape. Learn about the integration of development, testing, and operations teams, the continuous feedback loops, and the emphasis on quality and security throughout the development lifecycle. Understand how QE ensures faster delivery, higher quality, and greater resilience in software applications.
- QA vs. QE – The Big Differences: Gain a clear understanding of the key differences between Quality Assurance and Quality Engineering. Explore how QA focuses on defect detection post-development, whereas QE emphasizes defect prevention throughout the development process. Learn about the shift from reactive to proactive quality measures, the role of automation, and the strategic importance of embedding quality into every phase of development.
- The Driving Trends Towards QE over QA: Examine the trends and factors driving the shift from QA to QE. From the need for faster time-to-market and improved collaboration to the rise of DevOps and continuous delivery practices, understand why organizations are increasingly adopting QE. Explore the benefits of QE, including enhanced efficiency, reduced costs, better risk management, and improved customer satisfaction.
By transitioning from QA to QE, organizations can achieve significant improvements in their software development processes, ensuring higher quality, greater agility, and enhanced security. This whitepaper provides the insights and strategies needed to make this transition seamless and successful. At QualiZeal, we are committed to guiding your journey towards adopting Quality Engineering, ensuring that your organization remains competitive and resilient in the ever-evolving digital landscape.
