We amortize intangible assets assuming no expected residual value. Amortization expense related to these intangible assets was $27.9 million, $48.1 million and $36.0 million in fiscal years 2020, 2019 and 2018, respectively. The additions to intangible assets during fiscal years 2020 and 2019 are related to the acquisition of Chef in October 2020 and Ipswitch in April 2019, respectively (Note 7). During the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2019, we evaluated the ongoing value of the intangible assets associated with the technology obtained in connection with the acquisitions of DataRPM and Kinvey. As a result of our decision to reduce our current and ongoing spending levels within our cognitive application product lines, which consist primarily of our DataRPM and Kinvey products, we determined that the intangible assets were fully impaired and incurred an impairment charge of $22.7 million (Note 4). Future amortization expense for intangible assets as of November 30, 2020 is as follows (in thousands):
2021 | $ | 44,890 |
2022 | 44,836 |
2023 | 44,560 |
2024 | 31,744 |

We assess the impairment of goodwill on an annual basis and whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of the asset may not be recoverable. During fiscal year 2020, we tested goodwill for impairment for each of our reporting units as of October 31, 2020. Our reporting units each had fair values which significantly exceeded their carrying values as of the annual impairment date. We did not recognize any goodwill impairment charges during fiscal years 2020, 2019 or 2018.
