Start Your Value Stream Management Journey

In our digital world, challenges can arise at any moment. For example, a system outage or software failure may cause applications to be unavailable.

Fortunately, performance engineering and chaos testing can minimize the impact of unexpected events. Rather than waiting for errors to happen, software teams introduce chaos events in a controlled environment. This method helps you quickly identify defects or vulnerabilities that you may not have found during traditional testing.

Join David McLeish—Micro Focus, Product Manager for Performance Engineering and Kyle McMeekin—Gremlin, Head of Channel to learn:
• What is chaos testing and why is it important?
• The business benefits of adding chaos into your performance testing.
• How LoadRunner Professional and Gremlin deliver chaos engineering.

Resiliency and Performance Engineering

A recent commissioned study conducted by Forrester Consulting on behalf of Micro Focus compares new AI-based testing and quality management practices to traditional methods.

Less than 40% of respondents using traditional automation or manual testing were satisfied with the reusability of testing assets, management tools, and execution tools.  Comparatively, AI-based testing users are twice as satisfied with their tools and practices.

In this webinar, our experts and our guest from Forrester will discuss:
• Keys to AI-infused test automation and quality management practices.
• How to improve Agile and DevOps processes with AI.
• Successful case studies of AI-based testing. 

Join us and learn how to boost testing effectiveness with AI-infused tools and quality management practices.

Exposing the Value of your IT Transformation Programs

Organizations consider moving to the cloud in search of lower costs, faster time to value, enhanced reliability and up-time, and hassle-free upgrades.

While these benefits are true, organizations also have specific requirements in how they consume software and services, which ultimately define whether they are ready to make the move to software as a service (SaaS).

Join us for an overview of how Micro Focus cloud solutions work and see how they can provide a great deal of value. 

We’ll discuss a few trending topics, including:
• Understanding the rules, policies, and procedures, of making a move.
• Differences in deployment and management between IaaS, PaaS, SaaS, and even newer paradigms like functions as a service.
• Managing the layers of complexity with applications that must co-exist both on-premises and in a cloud.

Key Considerations for Moving to the Cloud

The World Quality Report 2021-22 is here. This one-of-a-kind annual global study shares today’s QA and testing trends and offers recommendations for tomorrow’s challenges.

This year’s report highlights rising priorities, such as the customer experience, QA adopting Agile and DevOps practices, the effect of evolving pandemic-impacted requirements for applications across new deployment methods, and the continued growth of AI in continuous testing and quality management tools.

Join us as we discuss all the key findings from this year’s report, including:
• COVID-19’s impact on QA organizations and software testing.
• Digital transformation’s real-time convergence with—and QA’s growing role in—DevOps and Agile adoption.
• How geographically distributed teams are adopting a business-oriented focus while deploying applications across environments. 
• How artificial intelligence (AI) innovations augment Agile and DevOps and foster a growing culture of responsibility for quality across all teams.
• The use of AI-powered continuous testing and quality management tools to address customer experience priorities and rapidly changing pandemic-impacted requirements.
