Testing Trends in 2025

1 week ago | bloorresearch.com | Daniel Howard

Software testing is difficult: software continues to evolve at a rapid pace, as does the need for high quality and reliability in software from both a usability and a governance perspective. This means that software testing must be fast enough to keep up with development, while being thorough enough to satisfy stringent quality requirements.

2 weeks ago | bloorresearch.com | Daniel Howard

We last covered Trovares in 2019, when it had only just come out of stealth mode.

I think it is fair to say that the past 16 months have been fairly traumatic for VMware customers and channel partners following its acquisition by Broadcom.

We live in a world entranced by generative AI. It is almost impossible to get away from it: it has truly broken into the mainstream. Even the proverbial person on the street knows of it, although they might not know much about it. In the business world, almost everyone wants to implement generative AI as quickly and as thoroughly as possible. But there is still a lot of confusion about what, exactly, generative AI is, how it works, and how it can best be utilised.

It goes without saying that advances in Information Technology (IT) have had a profound, and growing, impact on business over the last decade. The rise of AI, ML, and IoT has spurred the development of high-powered processors like GPUs and TPUs that consume more power and produce much more heat than previous generations of chips.
