About the event

Layoffs are making headlines, and most seem to be centered around one job sector: Tech.

The tech industry increased its layoffs by 649% in 2022, which is the highest since the dot-com bubble a few decades ago. There are several factors contributing to this current scenario, including the economy, inflation, higher interest rates, overhiring and COVID-19 pandemic job correction.

In this context, quality engineering (QE) has become an even more critical function for software companies. As organizations strive to remain competitive in a challenging market, they must ensure that their software products are of the highest quality and meet customer expectations. It is critical to ensure that software products are defect-free, perform optimally, and provide a seamless user experience.

But what does it mean for the leaders now? The ones tasked with skillfully charting a course through the thunderstorm beset by obstacles.

During the roundtable, we will explore how economic trends are impacting the future of software testing and discuss strategies for organizations to adapt and thrive in this changing environment.

We shall explore the role of automation and cloud-based solution in quality engineering and the impact of budget constraints. This provides an opportunity for an org to consolidate its testing efforts. The discussion will also focus on the importance of collaboration between testing and development teams to ensure that testing standards are met while still keeping costs under control.

By tackling the obstacles of maintaining testing standards in a macroeconomic downturn, tech organizations can position themselves for success both in the short term and the long term.
