In today’s fast-moving digital world, traditional hour-based estimation in software testing no longer aligns with the speed, complexity, and quality demands of modern product development. This session explores the shift from measuring QA efforts in hours to measuring the outcomes that truly matter—risk reduction, defect prevention, release confidence, and user satisfaction. Nilofar Jargela will break down why outcome-driven estimation creates stronger alignment with business goals, improves predictability, and transforms QA from a cost center into a value engine. Attendees will learn how to implement this shift within their teams and how it elevates the role of QA in shaping product success.
