In recent years, software testing and maintenance services are key factors of customers' perception of software quality. Nowadays, customers are more demanding about these services, while contribution of maintenance and testing services to products total cost of ownership should be reduced. Reducing these costs is even more crucial for SME's. To do this, new methods and techniques that will be aligned with the needs of companies are required. This paper presents the preliminary results of an interactive workshop celebrated by researchers and three companies. In the workshop, researchers present the advanced software engineering methods proposed by FastFix1 and FITTEST2 European projects. After that, discussions about their potential use in three application scenarios at Info-port Valencia, BULL Spain, and INDRA were performed and some lessons were learned.
