As enterprises become digital at an ever-accelerating rate, their application footprint is increasing dramatically, in various areas. These applications are increasingly built using agile methodologies, and delivered on the cloud, requiring integration of software development with operation and testing. At the same time, reliable software verification is essential to keep enterprises secure. We at Infosys are rethinking software testing around these imperatives, with innovation in devops and agility, bringing AI techniques to software specification and modeling, in bug localization and impact analysis, and in end-to-end process testing. We are gratified to see Gartner's recognition of our leading work in this critical area.
