Quality Assurance Process
In today’s world, software manufacturers face very demanding customers, which expect
a 100% flawless functioning of the software they bought. It is well known that every
single bug in the software product causes additional costs for customer support
and patches development. Even more importantly, fixing bugs wastes your valuable
time out and thus works against commercial success of your product in the market.
At Pixel Solutions, when it comes to testing and finding bugs we always believe “the
sooner, the better and cheaper”. So, we have tailored our quality assurance process
in such a way that it helps our clients to get “what they want in a way they wanted”.
This helps us to give our clients a quality product and a value for their money.
To achieve this, we introduce testing even before the development starts.
We do following types of testing for each project:
Functional Testing
This is a broad category of testing. In this testing phase we generally do following
- Identifying the basic functions that the application
is expected to perform
- Creating of input data based on specifications
of function
- Determining output based on specifications of
function
- Executing the test case
Usability Testing
In this phases of system testing our QA professionals test how easy the developed
solutions allows its users navigate, perform data input and access as well as checking
consistency of workflows throughout an application.
In this phase we also test that the application under testing is user friendly,
easy to navigate, has no misleading functionalities or messages.
Along with above, we also have very strict development process that also helps us
in getting rid of “obvious” bugs and also to avoid any business logic bugs. We also
have very effective coding standards and code review checklists that each developer
has to follow throughout the course of the project.
The following non-functional tests may be performed based on agreements with the
client
- Performance, Load and Stress testing
- Compatibility and scalability testing
