Hi Ministry of Testing Edinburg
h\,
Welcome to our 3rd Meetup of the year!
As always the aim
of this meetup is to help foster a test community in Edinburgh to bring p
eople together to talk and learn about good and authentic testing.
For March we have a superb speaker in Gary Davies\, Head of Test for Mindt
ree. Some of you may know Gary from his time in Scotland with App Labs and
later with Congizant.
Gary is going to talk to us about a challeng
e a lot of us face into\, how we can manage the transformation from Legacy
systems into a modern context.
Synopsis below:
Testing is becom
ing more of a governance layer in these large scale transitions from legac
y application to hosting on the cloud. The new age of continuous testing a
nd continuous automation will of course be fundamental to these programmes
\, however how does that sit with the rigour of legacy system testing that
is required in the most regulated businesses. The executive see the adopt
ion of cloud as a real cost driver and this is where testing becomes an in
teresting part of the jigsaw.
Areas we will explore:
-Exploring
how organisation can manage the transition and transformation from legacy
systems to the world of cloud
-The Technology surrounding this
-Mana
ging the role of the business
-Managing the role of the regulator
-M
anaging the expectation of the executive on cost reduction
-Keeping the
BAU running and the business working
Plan of Attack!
