The world is becoming increasingly competitive. It’s no longer a luxury to leverage corporate data as a strategic asset if ever-thinning margins and competitive advantages are to be maintained and improved. Businesses are increasingly investing in business intelligence and enterprise data warehousing (BI/EDW) as the infrastructure allowing them to leverage corporate information to make critical strategic and operational decisions. The BI Roundtable is a monthly forum designed to bring business and IT leaders together to discuss issues, collaborate on strategy and solutions, and work together toward a common goal: Better use of data and information technology to drive business performance.

ThoughtWorks takes a very different view with an inside - out approach to testing on all our projects. Instead of testing at the end of the development process, we integrate testing thoroughly into software development and systems management. Our own experience shows that when supported with the right processes, tools and training, integrated testing significantly speeds up the overall delivery of software. ThoughtWorks has introduced revolutionary testing techniques to enterprise IT and made significant contribution to the development of testing tools such as, Selenium, Cruise Control, White, Sahi, Watir, Nunit, JUnit and many more. Join us for an insightful webinar on testing and learn how repositioning testing at the heart of your software development approach not only builds in quality but also creates value by striving to prevent defects before they occur, enabling developers to get feedback in minutes and regression test results in hours, and enabling businesses to adopt testing activities which are highly aligned with their goals. We are at an important juncture in the history of software development. Those who embrace this change will survive.
