The Middle Child Rises – Testing Evolves to Quality Engineering

Ann Lewis, ExxonMobil

ExxonMobil’s philosophy is centered on safety, security and controls as the foundation of our 135-year-old company. Based upon our fundamental policy, quality has become a key component in delivering software. We are currently undergoing a shift from traditional project management organizations and support organizations to product teams. This shift has highlighted the need for testing early in the development cycle and to combine new development with ongoing maintenance.

Testing, the team “in the middle,” has become an integral component of the ExxonMobil development life cycle as “Quality Engineering.”

To do this, we started with the basics—quality control manages risk—and then explored what is tracked today and whether quality is being measured. We also removed the roadblock to continuous testing. In the end, the Quality Engineering team has created the expectation that testing is a part of everyone’s mindset; that continuous testing and deployment can only be accomplished through model-based testing; and that managing quality reduces overall cost of ownership.

Previously, Vantiv shared our automation journey and how we got started. Now, will share how we are maturing as a QA organization and in the use of Tricentis Tosca.

Our focus has shifted to how we manage and execute our 15,000+ tests. We have focused on unattended execution to achieve maximum benefits. The next step was to further advance in CI/CT/CD and our maturity. To do this, we have introduced new metrics and processes.

Finally, we are expanding our capabilities to end-to-end testing, performance testing, user acceptance, service virtualization and big data testing.
