How do we address these challenges using QA and ensure that the software functions well in real-world conditions?
Increased levels of integration in the software today means increased need for test capabilities. There will be a fair amount of integration testing and web services testing that ensure the software system is doing its intended job well. This will allow improved enterprise functionality by connecting all their stakeholders in the business process. There are tools that are available to test for integration in addition to manual testing.
Enterprise software challenges and significance of qa
1. Enterprise software challenges and significance of QA!
The top three enterprise software challenges are:
1. Integration with 3rd party software and best-of-breed IT systems, enabling
connected enterprises
2. Support for disparate client types like PCs, handhelds, smart phones etc.
3. High-volume transaction capabilities

Support for disparate devices means testing for multiple protocols and the ability of the
software to render those. This will be tested for multiple devices as well as multiple
browsers across operating systems if it is web application. If it is a standalone
application, then it will be tested only for those specific devices where it is made
available.
High volume transaction capabilities of the software can be tested through performance
testing activities, where we can figure out the load that it can handle and the load at
which the software system breaks. This will allow us to optimize the infrastructure both
in terms of software and hardware for improving availability during high volume needs.
All these add to the flexibility, scalability, availability, reliability and performance of
the enterprise software, making it enhance business advantages.
