Service Engineering: Entwicklung und Gestaltung innovativer Dienstleistungen

Die schnelle und effiziente Realisierung innovativer Dienstleistungen stellt zunehmend einen Erfolgsfaktor für die Wettbewerbsfähigkeit von Dienstleistungsunternehmen dar. Dienstleistungen werden in der Praxis jedoch oft "ad hoc", d. h. ohne systematische Vorgehensweise, entwickelt. Das Konzept des "Service Engineering" beschreibt Vorgehensweisen, Methoden und Werkzeugunterstützung für die systematische Planung, Entwicklung und Realisierung innovativer Dienstleistungen.

These trends will require that software test engineering personnel become more organized and technically more proficient. The expansion of automation and the proliferation of multitier systems will require that test engineers have both software and system skills. In addition, software test engineering will offer many junior software engineers a place to start their software careers. An article in Contract Professional magazine described a college student in Boston who learned an automated test tool while in school and landed a software test engineering position upon graduation.

The automation of test activities provides its greatest value in instances where test scripts are repeated or where test script subroutines are created, and then invoked repeatedly by a number of test scripts. ❍ The use of automated test tools to support the test process is proving to be beneficial in terms of product quality and minimizing project schedule and effort. ❍ The Automated Testing Life-cycle Methodology (ATLM) includes six components and represents a structured approach with which to implement and execute testing.

Testability. Evaluate the extent to which a test method can prove that a requirement has been successfully implemented. Test strategies should be determined during the functional specification/ requirements phase. Automated tools that support the requirements phase can help produce functional requirements that are testable, thus minimizing the effort and cost of testing. With test automation in mind, the product design and coding standards can provide the proper environment to get the most out of the test tool.
