Do Organizations Have the Data They Need When Making Decisions Critical to Software Quality?

Modern development teams don’t have the data they need to answer simple questions like: How successful were our bug fixes or tests? What is the quality of our tests? Have these tests improved, and if so by how much?

Enterprise software projects have thousands of tests, millions of lines of code, and a large number of build artifacts. There is no practical way to measure end-to-end test coverage—how much of the software is actually tested– and it is even more difficult to detect and report on untested code that could affect users in production.

Because organizations only have a very basic level of visibility, they rely on insufficient data when performing sprint planning, sprint retrospectives, planning investments in testing, or deciding whether to release to production.

Organization-Wide Visibility and Control Over Quality Risks with SeaLights Quality Governance.

SeaLights Software Quality Governance is a technology platform that identifies, analyzes, and communicates every perceivable Quality Risk across the entire end-to-end delivery pipeline, for every single software change. It does this by collecting massive amounts of data from build systems, test frameworks, and software running in production and analyzing it in real-time using AI/ML algorithms.

SeaLights can help organizations improve the visibility and control of quality risks in five steps:

SeaLights can help organizations improve the visibility and control of quality risks in five steps:

Identifying quality risks as early as possible in the SDLC, enabling shift left of quality efforts.

Analyzing quality risks in context to identify which component is affected and whether existing tests are sufficient to mitigate the quality risk.

Reporting on quality risks to inform the entire organization about the risk, and provide actionable insights on how to mitigate it.

Mitigating quality risks by prioritizing the most impactful issues and implementing the most appropriate risk remediation steps.

Controlling quality risks by providing relevant actionable insights to allow organizational policies, compliance standards, or quality governance requirements to be enforced.

How Does SeaLights Make Software Quality Visible and Controllable?

Identify and Communicate Quality Risks.

SeaLights Software Quality Governance is the only platform that can identify quality risks as soon as they are introduced into the software pipeline—whether in the planning, development, testing or staging phase.

SeaLights provides meaningful metrics that make quality transparent for every team member and manager in the organization:

Visibility for developers and testers
Identify and report software quality risks directly in the code, and provide better insights during pull request approval to ensure untested code does not enter the pipeline.

Visibility for release managers
Report on quality risks for every build or release, enabling data-driven release decisions.

Visibility for team leaders
Report on software quality risks trends across every build and every sprint, allowing data-driven decisions and early mitigation of quality issues.

Visibility for R&D managers
Report on quality trends for software components, teams, projects, or entire products across the software portfolio, helping managers to identify quality trends and pay attention to areas with low or deteriorating quality.

Cross-Organizational Software Quality Control.

SeaLights Software Quality Governance ensures that as teams progress through the software development lifecycle (SDLC), they can receive regular reports analyzing quality risks.

This allows all relevant organizational roles to understand the issue and quickly collaborate to resolve it.
