2 Virtualization: Testing Beyond boundaries Murali Meenakshi Sundaram Distinguished Technologist, CSC 9/23/2012 4:33 PM _ 1 Why Testing in Cloud? Drivers Multiple configurations to support various releases ( new dev / sustenance and maintenance of previous releases) Testing being a periodic activity and requires new environments to be set up for each project. Exponential combinations for testing Mobile devices, Browsers, OS etc Testing is considered an important but an non-business-critical activity : wedge for Cloud adoption Gartner -Cloud Services will be $150 Billion by 2013 Market Trends Growing U.S. enterprise usage and strong interest in TaaS; 49% highlight plans to evaluate or adopt within next months* Demand for TaaSas both complement and increasingly as substitute expected to increase over coming years as industries gain more experience and TaaSplatform capabilities and services evolve ASQ partners offering SaaStools Enterprise users of 3rd party services more likely to consider usage or adoption of TaaSas they look for ways to drive operational efficiencies with economies of scale and ability to shift from capex to opexspending CSC Advantage - Leverage CSC s Leadership position in Cloud 9/23/2012 4:33 PM _ 2 * IDC - From Traditional Testing Services to TaaS

3 Benefit : Do More with Less Responsiveness Cost Control Business and Operations Significant time saved through rapid provision of Test Environment and Test tools Decouple complexity of Test Environment configuration and Test Environment capacity leveraging cloud Rapid defect resolution in Test Environment leveraging snapshot features in the cloud lab Ability to certify for wider platforms and releases leveraging Test Environment images Utility model for Test environment and Test tools licenses Elastic resources (Environment and Tools licenses) Standardization of Test Environment and configurations through industrialized service delivery Upfront identification of defects through continuous testing leveraging services virtualization BCP / DR Plans leveraging Test Environments Ability to isolate and operate Test artifacts to enforce independence Lifecycle management Test Environment, Test data, Configuration, Release and Capacity management 9/23/2012 4:33 PM _ 3 Testing of IT applications ( Custom, Enterprise, Business apps) leveraging Cloud for virtualized, scalable,on-demand test labs that provide self-provisioning and management of multi-platform environments. What is Same. How is Testing in Cloud based environments different? Testing tools Test scripts Test standards The work flow The standard applications that are being tested (like SAP or Oracle or point solution) Test metrics The test environment (Platform, architecture and the applications them selves) Platform, tools and test experts - Utility model Predictable End-to-end cost Ability to leverage a variety of tools Ability to leverage various batteries of testing Verify architectural / design level using new generation performance tools before going live What is New. 9/23/2012 4:33 PM _ 4 * Adapted from IDC definition of TaaS

4 What can be leveraged in Cloud from a Testing perspective? CaaS Capability-as-a-Service (CaaS) EaaS Testing SaaS Functional Testing as a Service Performance Testing as a Service Mobile Testing as a Service Test Automation as a Service Security Testing as a Service Software as a Service (SaaS) Environment-as-a-Service (EaaS) Test Environment (Servers / Desktops/ Configurations)on demand to support New Development / Enhancement Patches / Hot Fixes Migrations / Upgrades ASQ Tools in alternate licensing models Test Tools Automation tools Performance Testing tools LCQM tools Open Source Tools 9/23/2012 4:33 PM _ 5 Test Environment Components Applications Infrastructure Security Integration Services Data Test Environment Manager Data Configuration Test Release Infrastructure 9/23/2012 4:33 PM _ 6
