The tried and tested route to testing maturity

Business and IT managers constantly need to manage the balance between realizing the commercial demands of the business, and at the same time meeting the organization’s own stringent professional IT standards. There is also the challenge of ensuring that testing is aligned to the delivery organization rather than being perceived as a discrete activity removed from the rest of the business. In addition, there are often the problems of an immature testing process and the uncertainty of how to make worthwhile improvements.

Sogeti’s solution, TPI® -Test Process Improvement, is a tried and tested structured assessment of an organization’s testing maturity with a view to improving its overall testing and QA effectiveness and efficiency.

Complementing the TMap® approach, TPi provides an objective insight into the ‘maturity’ of an organization’s entire test processes. It then identifies and defines incremental steps for improvements to achieve desired optimum testing capabilities. The assessment also provides insight into the broader context in which testing operates – including overall IT governance, business requirements management and other overarching processes.
