From Wagile to Agile – Releasing Your SDLC Bottleneck

The agile revolution is one of the most noteworthy changes in the world of software development – If done right.

Many organizations are stuck in a “Wagile” state: Developing iteratively but deploying the full functionality only after many iterations are complete.

In this webinar we will discuss the root causes of this phenomena, and discuss how transforming your Quality Engineering in the right way can unlock your agile process:

  • Why do some organizations lose sight of quality when transforming to agile?
  • How can you transform your quality team to preserve quality in agile?
  • Why is testing, even if done right, a bottleneck that keeps you in “Wagile”?
  • How can you release this bottleneck and move into a real agile state?

Join Yoav Ziv, Qualitest’s COO (West), Hardik Parekh (AVP - Delivery) and Michael Giacometti (AVP - Solution Architect), to learn how to evolve QA for an agile environment, achieve velocity, effectiveness and quality without losing your independence, and utilizing professional and customer centric QA.
