Several aspects of quality engineering have a considerable effect on goal 7.3 (improving energy efficiency), both by using less energy for SW testing and by building more energy-efficient SW.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Many quality engineering activities have an effect on energy consumption (test strategy, systematic test methods, test automation, reusability and maintainability of test artifacts etc.).<\/li>\n<li>Performance testing uses a lot of bandwidth, energy, and other resources. Therefore, it is important to consider resource-efficiency when planning the performance test strategy.<\/li>\n<li>Test automation can save energy, e.g., by reducing the time for test execution. On the other hand, a poor test automation strategy can also waste energy, e.g., by repeating irrelevant test cases in every single test run.<\/li>\n<li>AI is using enormous amounts of energy. Therefore, building energy-efficient AI systems has to be a focus point of AI quality engineering.<\/li>\n<li>Using AI for quality engineering is problematic due to its high energy consumption. However, it also has the potential for saving energy by speeding up time-intensive tasks such as test case creation or maintenance.<\/li>\n<li>Model-based testing is particularly beneficial for reducing the effort for test case maintenance<\/li>\n<li>Applying systematic test methods rather than redundant or random testing improves testing efficiency<\/li>\n<li>The decisions of the test manager affect all of the aforementioned areas.
