Track: Track: Test Strategy and Design

Does your organization utilize test data management processes that fully protect the privacy of your customers and members? Does your organization manufacture test data in an integrated manner similar to production-like processing? Does your organization meet industry best practices in data solution quality? Every organization recognizes that effective test data management is a critical success factor to improving software quality, costs and data privacy. Data Manufacturing could be an answer to all these challenges. Our goal is to demonstrate how Aetna has deployed an efficient test data management strategy, utilizing integrated data manufacturing, resulting in a best in class industry solution as well as, federal government compliant protected production data.
