Staffing levels for IT quality assurance personnel have been relatively steady over the past five years for several reasons, including the new ways in which software is being developed and the varying needs of industry sectors. In this report, we first evaluate recent changes in IT QA staffing levels.

We conclude with recommendations for improving the effectiveness of the QA function within the IT organization. (20 pp., 8 fig.)
