Traditional software testing simply validates that the software in development meets end-user expectations for functionality, availability and performance prior to deployment. Testing, thus, performs the software quality function. Testing, however, is frequently disconnected from development efforts, causing software that is developed to be severely limited in quality, innovation and growth capabilities.
