Abstract: Software testing is always a challenging activity for tester due to the rapid changing technology and testing methodology such as big data, mobile platform, agility, automation testing tools, internet of things and cloud computing. Cloud computing has been gaining momentum and popularity over this past few years and it impacts several different research areas which include software testing. As it continues to mature, cloud computing has opened up new opportunity and changes the way of how the software is tested. Many organizations started to invest heavily in this technology as they gain confidence and trust, knowing that cloud computing will bring more rewards to the organization. Hence, there is no doubt that testing in the cloud will become the new trend and might overtake conventional testing in the future. In this study, we will address the benefits of testing in the cloud and guidelines on how to leverage the cloud in software testing more effectively.
