American Society of Quality Dinner Forum 

Speaker Topic: Shifting Roles in Software Quality     

“DevOps” is a new buzzword in software development. It’s about teaming the development of software with administration of the deployed products. Products are deployed as they are developed, changing the way things are done, the roles of the various team members, and the relationships among the team members. This has a tremendous impact on quality assurance and the skills that software quality engineers apply.

The presentation describes some of these changes and implications for the future of software quality assurance.
