Abstract:
Organizations adopt SOA implementations to lower IT costs through reuse and improve their responsiveness to the needs of the business, so that business can be more “agile.” However, SOA introduces a huge degree of risk if it's not done right. And the risk is not just IT risk - it's a real risk to the business.
SOA implementations need to encompass a quality assurance focus, and IT needs to build and manage a QA process to ensure sustained quality. Quality objectives must be carefully defined with centralized quality assurance and test automation to optimize the use of IT resources in supporting services. To ensure that services will scale in a production environment, organizations must manage service quality and conformance across multiple projects.
The focus of this topic is on optimizing the quality and performance of SOA implementations through quality management and test automation. The successful deployment of services requires the ability to manage the quality of these services so organizations can optimize the use of IT resources and reuse services across multiple applications to enhance business agility.
