We’ve always been passionate about the importance of SOA quality, governance and testing as a means to improve trust and reuse. So it made sense for Mindreef to help sponsor a new report by the Aberdeen Group titled, “SOA and Web Services Testing: How Different Can It Be?"

The findings show that companies that incorporate quality throughout the lifecycle and take a “horizontal, process-oriented view, not the vertical unit-test methods used in the past,” are realizing a number of benefits and efficiencies:

• 94% reported an increase in the quality of deployed services 
• 61% experienced a reduction in the number of defects discovered in production 
• 57% noted a decrease in the time required to repair defects 
• 70% showed an improvement in maintainability of deployed services

What’s the key to their success?  The best-in-class companies that were surveyed have changed their QA processes to encompass composite applications, and focus on the quality of end-to-end business transactions instead of just testing individual services. These companies also measure quality throughout the entire project lifecycle and use design-time governance to promote reuse.
