Outsourced Testing: The future ahead
What is outsourced testing?
Does it mean hiring a third-party vendor and entrusting them
with the responsibility of the testing division and holding the vendor
responsible if something goes haywire? It means much more than that. Before going into the intricacies of outsourced testing, I
would first like to talk about how specialization plays a major role in every
one’s day to day life. It seems weird but outsourced testing and specialization
have a very deep correlation.
Since the beginning of the human civilization, an
increasingly complex division of labour is closely associated with the growth
of total output. Someone once said "To specialize is to brush one tooth.
When a person specializes he channels all of his energies through one narrow
conduit; he knows one thing extremely well and is ignorant of almost everything
else." For example, what happens when your water tap breaks down or for
that matter one of your electronic equipment stops working.
What comes to our mind if something like this happens? Do we
start repairing it on our own or do we immediately call for a plumber or an
electrician. Have we ever thought why we do that? I know it is a stupid
question to ask but they are the first person that comes to our mind because
they specialize in their job. Thus in a way we are outsourcing a job to an
individual that specializes in that job.
