Webinar: Why do organizations use synthetic data as test data?

Testing and development with representative test data is essential to deliver state-of-the-art tech solutions. However, many organizations face challenges in getting the test data right and face “legacy-by-design”, because:

  • The test data does not reflect production data
  • Referential integrity is not preserved across databases and systems
  • It is time consuming
  • Manual work is required

As test chapter lead and founder of test agency RisQIT, Francis Welbie will shed light on key challenges in software testing. As IT and Privacy Legal Professional at BG.legal, Frederick Droppert will illustrate why using production data as test data is not an option and why the Dutch Authority on personal data recommends using synthetic data. Finally, CEO and founder of Syntho, Wim Kees Janssen will illustrate how organizations realize agility with AI generated synthetic test data and how they can start.
