In Wipro Technologies, the global IT, consulting and outsourcing business of Wipro Limited, has been granted a patent by USPTO (United States Patent and Trademark Office) for its StORM (Statistics Operations Research Matrix) methodology.
StORM is a system and method for software test suite optimization, achieved by generating an Orthogonal Array(OA) for software testing using the mathematical principles for OA.
This method results in significantly reducing the number of test cases and at the same time increases the effectiveness of the testing process, thus reducing the testing cycle and effort required. Wipro has reduced test cases by 75% from the original suite for a large telecom equipment vendor. The resulting efficiency has implied increased coverage and reduced effort and cycle time.
IDC forecasts a five year CAGR of 19% for discrete global testing services, reaching an estimated $17.7 billion by 2013 and Wipro being one of the largest Independent Testing Services providers, aims for a bigger share of this pie.
