Introduction

Many organizations are experimenting with different operational models to sustain a strong testing team with various business challenges they are facing. I am sharing my observations made in entire journey as software professional. Each model attempted had its own issues and challenges. It is important that organization attempting any of this model to aware of these potential issues and take necessary steps to counter them.
