Establish enterprise CT processes and drive adoption Successful products are the sum total of  their technologies, processes and best  practices, which make products attractive  and easy to adopt. Having explored the  technical solutions and artifacts for CT,  let us examine some of the critical CT  processes and strategies for enterprise  adoption.<|endoftext|>a) CT processes – Robust processes act  as a pointer for all who embark on the  CT journey. The key processes to be  established are: • Day-wise activity tasks for helping teams  adopt in-sprint automation, as shown in  Fig 5  • CT metrics, measurement and reporting  like overall automation coverage, in-sprint  automation percentage, percentage of  defects found from automation, execution  time per run, code quality, and code  coverage  b) Adoption strategies – Implementing  CT across the enterprise can be facilitated  through the following ways: •   Providing organization-level branding  like communications, mailers and  workshops as well as talent enablement  and support through brown-bag meetings,  demos, trainings, self-learning videos,  playbooks, etc.  •   Accelerating adoption through  centralized CT metrics reporting that  introduces healthy competition, faster  adoption and early identification of  problem areas We, at Infosys, believe these dimensions  can help enterprises set up and operate  a mature continuous testing practice.  Nevertheless, it is important to customize  these according to the needs of each  organization.  • Baselined requirements • Script development 1-3 • Get artifacts from dev such as  html fles, wireframes for  scripting • Daily code deployment  for incremental changes • Unit testing of scripts • QA code deployment for  changes • Automated script execution  • Address code fxes for  defects • Rerun tests and signof 4 5-7 8 9-10 Fig 5: Daily tasks during a 10-day sprint External Document © 2020 Infosys Limited

 External Document © 2020 Infosys Limited Conclusion Establishing a continuous testing practice  across the enterprise comes with its own  challenges and complexities. These include  insufficient knowledge of automation,  limited funding, resistance to change, and  disparate technologies. When developing  a strategy for enterprise-wide adoption of  CT, Infosys recommends paying attention  to four critical dimensions. These include  creating a federated operating model,  standardizing tools, building automation  solutions, and establishing CT processes.  Through our approach, enterprises can  benefit from a roadmap to successfully  implement CT with a dedicated center  of excellence. The successful adoption of  continuous testing mandates changing  how people work and embracing  automation as part of the organizational  culture and business as usual.<|endoftext|>External Document © 2020 Infosys Limited
