Summary:
The phrase "doing more with less" is cliché at best, especially in todays challenging market conditions. Instead, companies should focus on making the best use of the resources they have. Managing in an economic slump generally involves prioritizing initiatives and maximizing efficiency. This same approach holds true in the world of testing and quality.

The phrase "doing more with less" is cliché at best, especially in todays challenging market conditions. Instead, companies should focus on making the best use of the resources they have. Managing in an economic slump generally involves prioritizing initiatives and maximizing efficiency. This same approach holds true in the world of testing and quality.

How, in the current economic climate, can products get to market as fast (if not faster), with the same level of quality, no new head count and increasing complexity in the devices and networks being tested? The answer is focusing your team on testing aspects they are good at, driving efficiency in those areas and removing the tasks that waste cycles. The author will discuss how the QA team and testing tools can be leveraged to maintain--and possibly even gain--a competitive edge in todays tough economic times.
