The theme of the conference this year is Testing Enterprise 3.0 - Reimagining the Business. Building on the theme, STC 2012 focuses on building a narrative to piece together the three cornerstones of future business opportunity, growth and continuity in the connected world - Innovation, Convergence, and Adoption.

With more than 800+ delegates expected, 200+ participating organizations and 35+ High Maturity organizations sharing their experiences, the conference, in its 12th year, celebrates India's global leadership in Software Testing. The conference will focus on burning trends in the industry like the emergence of technology based testing (mobile, web and SOA applications), emergence of non-functional testing and also the need for imbibing the quality angle in testing and setting up of specialized testing Centers of Excellence.

STC 2012, organized in association with the Edista Testing Institute (ETI), is a platform where practitioners from various organizations share and learn the current best practices, and the future possibilities on how to manage not only change but its continuity. STC 2012 will include four specific tracks focusing on Business Leadership, Test Program Management (Test Management, Team Management, and Test Estimation etc.), Techniques and Tools and Emerging Areas.

STC is a key player in bringing together practitioners and thought leaders from the Industry, Academia and Government, for sharing and exchanging ideas and learning in the area of Software Testing and Process Improvement. The two day conference will be followed by post-conference tutorials across various cities.

Leading organizations in the industry like HP, Neotys, Parasoft and Datamatics. In addition it is being supported by various Software Process Improvement Networks (SPINs), Test Republic and Software Certifications. The conference is also supported by QA InfoTech, Capgemini, CSC, Cognizant, Deloitte and CGI.

Commenting on this announcement, Mr. Navyug Mohnot, CEO, QAI India Ltd., said, "Software Testing has come a long way, from being a phase of the development life cycle to being a separate business. Today, Software Testing business is growing faster than the actual development business. The International Software Testing Conference was created as a unique forum for exchanging, learning and accelerating the implementation of best practices in the domain of Software Testing and the industry response that STC has received this year, clearly demonstrates the growth witnessed by the industry in the current phase."
