Goodwill represents the premium paid over the fair value of the net tangible and intangible assets that are individually identified and separately recognized in business combinations. Our entire balance as of September 30, 2019 relates to our technology reportable segment, which we also determined to be one reporting unit. The change in our goodwill balance during the six months ended September 30, 2019 relates to our acquisition of certain assets and liabilities of Innovative Technology Systems & Solutions, Inc. (“ABS Technology”), which is partially offset by adjustments related to our acquisition of SLAIT Consulting, LLC (“SLAIT”) and foreign exchange translations. See Note 16, “Business Combinations”.

We test goodwill for impairment on an annual basis, as of the first day of our third fiscal quarter, and between annual tests if an event occurs, or circumstances change, that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of a reporting unit below its carrying value.

Customer relationships and other intangibles are generally amortized between 5 to 10 years. Capitalized software development is generally amortized over 5 years.

Total amortization expense for other intangible assets was $2.5 million and $1.8 million for the three months and $4.9 million and $3.1 million for the six months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. The change in the gross carrying amount of other intangible assets is due to the acquisition of ABS Technology of $5.7 million.
