We\u00a0know that you\u2019re thinking, \u201cReally? Another fluff post about the top people in my profession and what I need to do to be just like them?\u201d<\/p>\n

Listen, we hear you, but this is not some fluff piece with vague ideas of what might (or might not) work. Read on, follow along for the next few weeks, and we promise it will be worth your time! If not, write to us directly\u00a0and tell us what we can do better next time. We will reply!<\/p>\n

In case you missed it, on May 27th the 2019 State of Automated Visual Testing<\/a>\u00a0was released. Based on independent research sourced from over 350 testing teams around the world, we learned that 12% of you are getting much better results than the other 88%. We\u2019re talking four times more successful as measured by the things you (and your boss, and bosses\u2019 boss, and your bosses\u2019 bosses\u2019 boss) really care about – test coverage, release velocity, application quality, overall R&D teamwork, and cold hard cash! This is not our opinion. It\u2019s not subjective. It\u2019s objective data and information. Data and information that came from you and your peers.<\/p>\n

In other words, we\u2019re not asking you to take our<\/em>\u00a0word for it; we\u2019re asking you to take your<\/em>\u00a0word for it. Take a moment to download the full report. We will be here when you get back!<\/p>\n

So what separates the top 12% from the other 88%?<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Digital Transformation. Two words that have been baked into our world over the past 20 years. To such an extent that it may be fair to call it fluff? Fluff or not, IDC forecasts that worldwide spending on technologies and services that enable digital transformation will reach $1.97 trillion in 2022, per the (IDC<\/a>) Worldwide Semiannual Digital Transformation Spending Guide<\/a>.<\/p>\n

(If you think a trillion is an abstract concept, check this out<\/a>.)<\/p>\n

Dang. That\u2019s a lot of fluff! When your bosses\u2019 bosses\u2019 boss is spending that kind of cash, it\u2019s always worth paying attention. It could be good for your career. As it turns out, 12% of the world\u2019s testing teams did<\/em>\u00a0pay attention, and it\u2019s their approach to managing the challenges of digital transformation that have set them apart.<\/p>\n
