Abstract: Quantum computing offers significant speedups for simulating physical, chemical, and biological systems, and for optimization and machine learning. As quantum software grows in complexity, the classical simulation of quantum computers, which has long been essential for quality assurance, becomes infeasible. This shift requires new quality-assurance methods that operate directly on real quantum computers. This paper presents the key challenges in testing large-scale quantum software and offers software engineering perspectives for addressing them.
