USE ANALYTICS
TO TEST SMARTER

Do you remember the time before
Google Maps or GPS? You know,
when you manually wrote down directions, got out a paper map, and hunted
for the right street? You worked with a
rough estimate of arrival time, and the
only option to arrive earlier was to drive
faster.
Map services today are based on a
comprehensive knowledge of driving
habits and typical traffic patterns, as
well as information that affects those
habits-maps of every street, road, and
alleyway, as well as real-time data from
traffic sensors, accidents/slow-downs,
route diversions, and crowd-sourced
input. The time savings from smarter

route adjustments far exceed your ability
to drive faster, and consequently, avoid
those costly speeding tickets. Why does
it work? Because it is comprehensive, organized, accurate, and accessible.
In the same way that these factors
work to improve day-to-day activities
like navigation, they can also be applied
to product testing. Manufacturing organizations can use quality data combined
with analytics to test smarter, significantly improving overall throughput and
product quality. In many industries, the
need for digital transformation in product testing is business-critical as product
complexity increases, and time-to-market windows get smaller.

Much of the focus is on faster execution times for individual tests. While that
is important, especially for high-volume
manufacturing, you must go beyond execution speeds to garner maximum value.
To achieve test operations excellence, you
need to (1) fail fast/fail early, (2) optimize
throughput, and (3) utilize both historical
and real-time accurate and reliable data.
The key is to deploy enterprise-grade
test operations software to centrally
manage test equipment and organize
test data across all phases of testing.
This provides the foundation necessary
to apply analytics to optimize tests and
equipment utilization to improve overall
product throughput.
