In the past few years, we have seen a drastic change in technology. During the last decade, many ideas have become a reality. In fact, in 2017, many of these technological innovations became available to the general public, such as humanoids, VPAs, self-driven cars etc. Due to these frequent technological changes and innovations, it is important for SQA companies to stay updated and upgrade their traditional testing techniques. Also, they need to train and help engineers learn new testing skills for a good quality assurance.
In this newsletter, QASource has come up with a few forecasts for some trending technologies being used in the industry i.e. AI, IoT, Big Data, and Blockchain and the changes/enhancements required in our current testing techniques.
