Speaker Presentation

  • Service Virtualization as an Enabler of DevOps and Continuous Integration: Shifting Left with the Latest Test Automation Technologies

    A lack of effective automated testing limits many firms in the DevOps implementation. Poor test data quality and an inability to test components independently of each other compound the challenge of “shifting left”. Sundeep Kumar will explain how by employing service virtualization, production data sand boxing and machine learning techniques, we can enable the full potential of DevOps implementation and achieve true quality.

  • Accelerating Innovation at Charles Schwab with Continuous Testing

    Charles Schwab transformed the quality assurance process for its Intelligent Portfolios robo-advisory platform product team by adopting a “shift left” continuous testing approach and validating quality through automation. In this presentation, Michael Schober and Bala Mukund will detail how they led this transformation of Schwab’s Wealth Management Technology team with the help of automated continuous testing via Sauce Labs. Delegates will learn how to streamline the software development process, practical processes for implementing continuous testing and how to reshape DevOps culture to better meet customer needs and expectations.

  • Embedding Regulatory Compliance in the SDLC at Transamerica

    The number one challenge in software quality assurance for financial firms? Many would say it is embedding regulatory compliance while automating and accelerating delivery. Michael Cooper will demonstrate how Transamerica has managed that transition whilst explaining how financial firms, large and small, can develop a "regulation strategic" quality assurance practice that combines tools for agile testing and business-driven development (BDD) that meet the regulatory challenge.

  • QA Transformation at an Enterprise Level

    Everest Re Group is undertaking a rapid transformation, not least in its technology group - Everest Technology Services - which provides support to its insurance and reinsurance businesses. In this session, Yasar Sulaiman will detail how Everest has transformed software quality assurance at the enterprise level and how his team met the challenges they faced across multiple business divisions, dealing with complex new tools and an urgency for innovation while optimizing cost and resources. The QA practice not only had to keep up but also lead the way in many areas.

  • Test Automation for Core Banking Platforms: Overcoming Complex Legacy Challenges

    Today’s market environment demands more changes and more testing than ever before. While core banking systems such as Temenos T24 and Oracle FLEXCUBE offer banks the opportunity to acquire a single off-the-shelf platform, comprehensive end-to-end testing in this context creates a major challenge, as every function must be linked to that platform. Renovite Technologies’ Jim Tomaney will introduce the session with an overview of how this challenge can be met, followed by a discussion that will compare the experience of two leading financial firms.

  • Testing for Blockchain, Smart Contracts and Distributed Ledgers

    As blockchain technologies become more widely used by financial firms, questions remain over improving security and testing for distributed ledger platforms. How do firms test smart contracts? Our experts will discuss emerging industry standards for testing, and how readiness for test automation can be embedded in contract and platform construction.
