title = "Testing a cloud application: IBM SmartCloud inotes - Methodologies and tools",
abstract = "IBM SmartCloud is a branded collection of Cloud products and solutions from IBM. It includes Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS), Software as a Service (SaaS), and Platform as a Service (PaaS) offered through public, private and hybrid cloud delivery models. This paper focuses on the software testing process employed for the SmartCloud iNotes SaaS application, providing details of the methodologies and tools developed to streamline testing. The new tools have enabled the testing team to meet the pace of the highly agile development team, enabling a more efficient software development lifecycle. Results indicate that the methodologies and tools used have increased the performance of the testing team: there was a decrease in the number of bugs present in the code (prior to release), and an overall increase in customer satisfaction.",
