Automation is Here to Stay!

“By 2020, agile and DevOps initiatives will cause at least 75%

of enterprises to implement test automation.”

- Gartner, Magic Quadrant for Application Testing Services, Worldwide, November 2016

“The demand for automation testing

can be attributed to the pressing

need to deliver quality most often

within stringent timelines.”
