IT modernization, including agile software development, cloud migration, and enhanced cybersecurity, is foundational for government agencies’ ability to deliver citizen services and achieve mission success. However, managing these multifaceted initiatives, which often include a mix of both cloud-native and modernized legacy applications, requires careful and strategic testing, and an approach to quality to ensure systems and services function effectively. Though testing was historically manpower intensive, manual, and expensive, advances in automation now enable agencies to test and deliver quality software faster, more consistently, and with greater accuracy.

During this webinar, government and industry experts explored how automated testing and a modern approach to quality engineering can be a force multiplier for agency-wide modernization efforts, improved constituent experience, and better facilitate compliance with regulatory requirements. Leaders shared best practices in implementing automated testing, a holistic end-to-end approach to software quality, and offer case studies in testing complex workflows.
