Software testing is no longer the new kid on the block in the IT industry. It has already established its vital role into the software development life cycle. Hence, the dependency of the performance of the product inevitably falls on QA's shoulder. In such a situation, pressure for delivering the best service demands the best utilization of the software testing skills. Independent offshore software testing is, thus, adding a new facet to the software-testing domain.

These failures could be attributed to various factors like biased decision making, interference of development team in the QA's matters and so on.
