Description:
Has your company been around for a long time? Did your products start off as purely mechanical, then evolve to electro-mechanical, then to electronic, and are now software-driven hardware? Are the historical underpinnings of your testing and quality organizations rooted in manufacturing operations and validating physical products? If so, then rebalancing the test suite may shorten your time-to-market.

But lengthy time-to-market is also not inexpensive if the revenue streams of all products could be brought forward a number of weeks or months. ROI justifications are unique to each company. So, rebalancing will be worth it for some firms and not others.
