As this hardware evolves towards increased capacity in terms of qubit number and increased fidelity, so does the complexity of quantum computing applications that implement the state-of-the-art of (hybrid) quantum algorithms. With this comes an increased demand for quantum software engineering practices where testing is a crucial part of the development process. Hence, a robust approach that addresses certain challenges and peculiarities related to the quantum computing domain is needed for the testing process. This paper proposes a standard-ready testing pipeline that covers the requirements of testing in a continuous development cycle as part of a modern quantum software engineering lifecycle.enQuantum computingQuantum Software EngineeringNISQTestingDebuggingA Testing Pipeline for Quantum Computing Applicationsconference paper
