Join this TechTuesday event and learn about supercharge testing with synthetic test data

When developing and maintaining software, testing can eat up 25%-60% of the budget depending on the system and maturity of the organization. Testing today further often depends on time-consuming manual processes, compromising release deadlines and fast-changing business needs.

High-performance development organizations today use cross-functional teams that embed quality continuously using DevOps paradigms and high rates of automation.

The pace and agility of these development organizations depends on three technical enablers:

1. (Compliant) test data for every test;
2. Isolated test environments for parallelized testing and development;
3. Testable software, built with testing in mind.
   
   The journey to achieving such “good” test data must start with avoiding the use of sensitive data in non-production environments. This is a minimum for reducing costly compliance risks and is increasingly a demand placed by businesses on their testing. Yet, anonymization does nothing to boost the test coverage of production data and often takes too long. Synthetic test data should be your preferred approach for testing and DevOps, offering compliance and coverage at speed.
   
   This afternoon event will explore the effective generation-, maintenance-, sharing- and management of synthetic test data. You will see how coverage-enriched data can be used on demand and in isolation, testing incremental changes during CI/CD. This approach is GDRP compliant and flexible to changing test needs while unlocking optimal test coverage and cost efficiency for DevOps organizations.
