The Importance of Software Quality Assurance in Network Automation 

For Service Providers, automation is no longer just about efficiency—it’s a competitive necessity. Yet, many automation initiatives fail not due to lack of innovation, but because of poor software quality.  

Without a robust Quality Assurance (QA) strategy, automation projects face costly risk of delays, cost overruns, security vulnerabilities, and rising technical debt. 

In this white paper, we explore: 

The costs of poor software quality. 
Why automation projects fail—and how to avoid common pitfalls. 
The core components of a strong QA strategy. 
Actionable steps to integrate QA into your software development project. 

At Ductus, we help enterprises and service providers navigate their Network Automation Journey with strategic QA frameworks that reduce risk and maximize results.
