Conclusions

1Agility and IOT will keep on spreading and

developing, so as web technologies, APPS,

big data and cloud services

2Testers need to address new challenges

(continuous testing, non functional testing)

Some of which are yet to be identified

3ISTQB® and other standards are there to help

and guide you

Be prepared and be ready to change!
