Shift-everywhere testing In a similar way to shift-left and shift-right strategies, shift-everywhere proposes looking at both the software development and test lifecycle (SDLC/STLC) from the outside. This is to ensure a full view of the system and consider testing and quality throughout.Scott Kenyon posted a video in which he discussed shift left, taking away from customer focus, and shift right being removed from early quality opportunities. He first suggested we need to 'shift-in' and later refined it to 'shift-everywhere'.Since then, the term has been used in relation to continuous quality, has been referenced in talks and articles and specifically mentioned in the testing trend, 'Do you understand what is meant by Continuous Quality?' where the following was said:"The testing community generously shared their thoughts on Continuous Quality, there was definitely a vibe of moving away from the idea of shift-left and more towards: Continuous Quality is about shifting everywhere. Continuous Quality is not just shifting testing, it’s shifting quality Shifting “investment in quality” to the left"
