MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif., Jan. 16-- Agitar Software, a leader in enterprise unit testing, today announced it will host a free series of hour-long webinars on unit testing, with two webinars in January.
"The Business Benefits of Unit Testing" Jan. 24, 2007 at noon EST/9 a.m. PST Carey Schwaber, Forrester Research, and Jeff Fredrick, Agitar Software
This webinar is for software managers, directors, and VP's managing business-critical Java projects, and who are interested in how unit testing can help them tackle familiar challenges -- software release cycles that are getting faster and faster, Java applications that are too brittle to enhance and extend easily, and QA cycles that are becoming longer and more unpredictable.
"Unit testing, a method for testing code as it's written, is crucial for ensuring that mission-critical Java applications are delivered on time, with the highest quality and flexibility," said Fredrick. "It's usually thought of as a development best practice, but unit testing also yields significant business benefits, such as helping development organizations respond faster to business needs."
During the webinar, Carey Schwaber of Forrester Research will discuss:
* What is unit testing and where does it fit into a development organization's initiatives * How unit testing benefits developers and development teams
* What are the business benefits of unit testing? For example, how does unit testing help development organizations respond more quickly to changing business needs? * How can enterprises drive more and better unit testing
The webinar also includes a customer case study, and information about the advantages of automation in the unit testing process. To register for this webinar, please visit: http://www.agitar.com/news/events/webinar_business_benefits.html
