SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 26, 2018 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- voke, inc., a modern analyst firm focused on the edge of innovation, today announced the publication of a new Market Mover Array Report on Service Virtualization. The report highlights the need to make service virtualization technology a critical component of the software life cycle, to enable testing to keep pace with development and deliver on the ultimate goal of getting quality software to market on time and within budget. The report highlights that service virtualization is essential to:
- Accurately model the real-life behavior of software prior to production
- Remove constraints and wait times of unavailable or incomplete services
- Easily test edge cases and difficult to reproduce scenarios
- Prepare for the next wave of innovation, such as the Internet of Things (IoT)
"The dilemma of testing is one that all software engineering teams face - you are unable to accurately test anything until there is a complete system with realistic data. By the time testing teams get what they need, the time for testing has expired," said Theresa Lanowitz, founder of voke, inc. "To solve that classic testing dilemma, software engineering teams must bring in service virtualization as part of their engineering process, to empower testers to keep pace with development, regardless of lifecycle practices employed. By virtualizing work in progress, software quality is ensured from the start of every project."
Lanowitz continued, "We have been shifting left in the software testing process for over a decade. Service virtualization is a proven technology with demonstrable ROI that delivers on the shift-left promise and empowers teams to stop waiting and start testing!"
In addition to detailing the benefits of service virtualization, the report goes on to provide analysis of six market moving vendors in the service virtualization market. In alphabetical order, those vendors are:
- CA Technologies
- IBM
- Micro Focus
- Parasoft
- SmartBear
- Tricentis
