Software testing is difficult: software continues to evolve at a rapid pace, as does the need for high quality and reliability in software from both a usability and a governance perspective. This means that software testing must be fast enough to keep up with development, while being thorough enough to satisfy stringent quality requirements. These demands are very much in tension, meaning that your testing will need to thread the proverbial needle if you want to take advantage of it to build high quality software at speed. While this is certainly possible, it is also far easier said than done. This is where this paper comes in: as a guide to the most significant trends, strategies, and considerations for testing in 2025, aimed at helping you to build an effective and productive test solution that maximises the value of your testing practice.
