Abstract
Testing as a Service (TaaS) [1] is gaining acceptance in software engineering industry for it finds outsourcing of testing a viable option for both, adhering to software production timeline and making testing cost-effective while not making compromise in product quality. In consequence, few companies have started offering tools automating TaaS process. This chapter highlights on this upcoming concept and presents a generic model explaining the steps involved in TaaS. It also explains use of cloud technology for TaaS implementation. This aims at effective utilization of resources while delivering a testing service. In addition, a pricing model for test outsourcing is proposed.
