Somerville — September 27, 2021 —
SmartBear, a leading provider of software development and quality tools, released the results of its fourth annual State of Software Quality | Testing survey. SmartBear conducted a 57-question online survey over the course of five weeks in the first half of 2021, where they collected industry benchmarks from more than 2,900 development, testing, and software delivery lifecycle professionals.
“Since our last survey, the world changed dramatically, and software has become even more present in our lives,” said Joanna Schloss, Senior Vice President of Product Marketing at SmartBear. “Every company is an Ecommerce company, and ensuring quality is even more imperative today. The trends in this survey illuminate the challenges in maintaining quality, and SmartBear is an industry-leading partner that helps organizations with all of their testing and quality needs.”
