As QA teams adapt to changes in the development world, they will face both positive and negative challenges. With increasing application complexity, QA efforts are expected to become more comprehensive, using better tools, automation, and cloud-based testing infrastructure. However, this may lead to decreased quality if not managed properly. On the other hand, the shift towards QE (Quality Engineering) is expected to benefit everyone, as it focuses on testing strategy and architecture over specific testing, facilitating communication between IT and developers. The role of QE will expand to team-wide leadership, enabling them to provide strategic guidance and identify bugs before they reach production. In an enterprise setting, QA teams will gain purchasing power and become bigger technical influencers, driving the adoption of new tools and processes. Ultimately, automation will be clear in its benefits, but implementing it will require careful planning and understanding from all involved parties.
