   A company is at the beginning of its test process improvement journey and has no formal test process. They want to establish a structured improvement program that will guide them from an ad-hoc process to a defined, managed process over several years. The company has the resources to commit to a long-term improvement program. Which model is more suitable?

   • ATMMi, because its staged maturity levels provide a clear, long-term roadmap from ad-hoc to defined, managed processes.
   • BTPI Next, because it allows the company to focus on quick wins and see immediate results.
   • CTMMi, because it requires less effort to implement than TPI Next.
   • DTPI Next, because it is the only model that can be used by organizations at the beginning of their improvement journey.
